[verse 1]
man, you know i got some questions
but you say you know the truth
i’m not done learning all my lessons
ignorance is no excuse
everything you say i’m missing
think i’m destined for the dirt?
it’s like i’m guilty by omission
i guess maybe i’ll convert
[chorus]
and i’m like, “yeah, yeah”
and you’re like, “nah, nah”
and i’m like, “h-ll yeah”

[verse 2]
why you don’t got any questions?
how you know that this is real?
i am feeling such repression
you can’t tell me how to feel
why you think i’m at the bottom?
why you think i’m off the path?
’cause i used to love the bottle?
or is it the tattoos on my back?
[chorus]
and i’m like, “yeah, yeah”
and you’re like, “nah, nah”

[verse 3: paul wall]
bow wow, baby
bow wow
bow wow, baby
ay, judge thee not lest ye be judged (be judged)
don’t mind me, i’m just doing my drugs (my drugs)
i don’t bar none and i don’t hold no grudge
but i’m all real homie, i do not budge
they tell ya it’s for your soul, they just playing a role
’cause when it’s all said and done it comes down to control
all the lying and deception been taking its toll
but i’m ten toes down, i will not fold
i get manipulated every time i’m in a bad place
they straight lie to my face and then ask for grace
the phone calls stop coming when i talk my case
then they tell me that i’m wrong if i question my faith
i gotta look past the messenger and hear the message
i gotta be my best self and get all my blessings
so let me light up this blunt and if they hate, so what?
i’m doing me, i’m not concerned too much
[verse 4: kota the friend]
sitting on the mountaintop
well above the clouds, i don’t feel like i’m about to drop
hanging in the balance, i don’t harbor any malice
i done been up in the slums, i done been up in the palace
i’m infinity, sacred geometry, living simply
universe aligned with my spirit, i feel its symmetry
i remember vividly, the devil tried to finish me
nature got my back, so he couldn’t f-ck with the synergy
i break bread with the lost, make joy by your pain
found peace in a war, i made do in the rain
star shining in night, my light true as the day
i don’t believe in the hype, i’m only human, i say
oh you lost? well, i’m lost, too
and some of us are burdened with the knowledge, but we all fools
what’s the point of winning while we living when we all lose
when it’s said and done in the ending when we all screwed?
[chorus]
and i’m like, “yeah, yeah”
and you’re like, “nah, nah”
and i’m like, “h-ll yeah”
and i’m like
that’s why they call me temple priest mothaf-cka
that’s why they call me temple priest mothaf-cka
