[Verse: Yasiin Bey]
This is for my favorite band of human beings
The faithful, the graceful, the tragic, the classic
The evidence of things unseen, the book of life
The mansions of the moon, the bones of Firuan
Recently discovered and everything but note
The doubter's doubts about it never made unsure, life!
The gift, peace out the pressure
Can't remember how you came
Or win a bet on how you'll exit
From the start, the only thing certain is the end
Promise to all and none, knowing not when
Heartbreak from yesterday a fret for tomorrow
I leave you now filled with anxiety and hollow
If you pray don't worry, if you worry don't pray
My homie told it to me just the other day
From the tall castle walls to the mean teeth streets
I hope you get what you are
And that you are what you need
Ameen...
