[Chorus: Tyler Diggs & Tatum Miranda]
~#**************#~
If a miracle could save us from
~#**************#~
The travesty that weve become
~#**************#~
If a million sons would stand as one
~#**************#~
We will overcome, overcome
~#**************#~
If a miracle could save us from
~#**************#~
The travesty that weve become
~#**************#~
If a million sons would stand as one
~#**************#~
We will overcome, overcome
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Inspectah Deck]
~#**************#~
The whole world trippin, listen its still a cold world
~#**************#~
The other day I had to bury my homegirl
~#**************#~
Wrong place, caught one in her face
~#**************#~
Plus her mans on the run and couldnt come to the wake
~#**************#~
For Heavens sake, you pray God open the gate
~#**************#~
In this modern day Sodom, thats their only escape
~#**************#~
10 year olds are cold, no, they dont hesitate
~#**************#~
2 up a G pack, he chose the whole 8
~#**************#~
Catch a 5 to 10 sellin 5s and 10s
~#**************#~
And the police informer was your childhood friend
~#**************#~
In the real world, gotta hustle for your dream
~#**************#~
Extend your clips, fit the muzzle with the beam
~#**************#~
For the love of cream, its nothin but routine
~#**************#~
Swing on the judge, take a couple for the team
~#**************#~
Hes the young Capone, he grew up in a drug home
~#**************#~
Stranded on the Ave with a blunt and his gun shown
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Tyler Diggs & Tatum Miranda]
~#**************#~
If a miracle could save us from
~#**************#~
The travesty that weve become
~#**************#~
If a million sons would stand as one
~#**************#~
We will overcome, overcome
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Masta Killa]
~#**************#~
A live scene theme from a Godfather saga
~#**************#~
A Martin Scorsese classic and Im the author
~#**************#~
Drama at the opera, crime story novel
~#**************#~
Tuxedo suit and silencer on the nozzle
~#**************#~
Meeting place scheduled at the Broadway musical
~#**************#~
Bravo, we arrive in bulletproof limo
~#**************#~
Shotgun, the underboss of our main source
~#**************#~
Of interest, the black widow cocaine empress
~#**************#~
A princess rich from her familys inheritance
~#**************#~
Now lets talk business, begin by addressin the bricks
~#**************#~
That was missin in the last shipment
~#**************#~
At first, everything nice, everything routine
~#**************#~
Jocks lining up the food, we blessed him with the cream
~#**************#~
But on this day he wasnt ready and my God sense keen
~#**************#~
I noticed that his normal firm handshake shook
~#**************#~
It wasnt steady when he squeezed
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Tyler Diggs & Tatum Miranda]
~#**************#~
If a miracle could save us from
~#**************#~
The travesty that weve become
~#**************#~
If a million sons would stand as one
~#**************#~
We will overcome, overcome
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: Raekwon]
~#**************#~
He went from prince to a king out of a life of rubbish
~#**************#~
Wearin tailor-made suits, Sky Dwellers and clusters
~#**************#~
To perfection, rags to riches, the evils done influenced
~#**************#~
That pushed him off the edge, they said the greed made him do it
~#**************#~
Youre my right hand, damn, he fucked the trust up
~#**************#~
Its ruined, niggas caught him slidin on his belly
~#**************#~
Im grippin on my hammer with the silencer twisted
~#**************#~
Contemplatin murder now, Im bout to swerve on my biscuit
~#**************#~
But its my man at the same time, I dont wanna do him
~#**************#~
He violated, broke a major code, bar what you stealin now
~#**************#~
Its over, in the falls of Niagara, he was soakin
~#**************#~
With a shell case stuck in his head, they found him floatin
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Tyler Diggs & Tatum Miranda]
~#**************#~
If a miracle could save us from
~#**************#~
The travesty that weve become
~#**************#~
If a million sons would stand as one
~#**************#~
We will overcome, overcome
~#**************#~
[Verse 4: Ghostface Killah]
~#**************#~
Allah let me lay in your arms
~#**************#~
Hold me like a newborn
~#**************#~
Sing to me the most sweetest song
~#**************#~
The exalted, the most benevolent
~#**************#~
The knower of all keep me safe till I return back to your residence
~#**************#~
This Earth, my place of birth
~#**************#~
As time went through the ages it got worse
~#**************#~
Sicknesses, beheadings in Syria
~#**************#~
Ebolas killin my people, its gettin scarier
~#**************#~
Most foods aint even real, the chip is here
~#**************#~
Deadly fluids bein released, contracted through air
~#**************#~
Dear God, it been a minute since I cried out
~#**************#~
Since Mama died, I never wild out
~#**************#~
We need help like the phones bout to die out
~#**************#~
Can you hear me? Can you hear me now?
~#**************#~
We need a miracle
~#**************#~
Destroy the FDA for holdin back cures so they can get paid
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Tyler Diggs & Tatum Miranda]
~#**************#~
If a miracle could save us from
~#**************#~
The travesty that weve become
~#**************#~
If a million sons would stand as one
~#**************#~
We will overcome, overcome
