Afro DZ ak - "The Remedy"

In this world- of crazy days and nights,
I’m never getting lazy on the mic
And plus I got my lady on my right
And together we could weather
any storms that’s comin
Cuz when she smile,
the sunshine so warm it’s stunnin
I’m wantin the simple things,
and though life is loco
As I’m learning them keys to life poco a poco
With each day beginnin a new son is risen
I’m tryin to teach him some wisdom,
and keep him from prison
Cuz the mind is a prism
designed to reflect light
But these young dreams gettin stopped
like a red light
But yo, I shed light like a golden retriever
Cuz if young minds are clay
I’m tryin to mold an achiever
Plus I got a girl who’s just as committed to education
So together we can strive for change and elevation
Cuz the world stays crazy,
but we bringing the remedy
Through books and hooks,
lesson plans and melodies

Chorus

B Reese
Yeah, though the remedy’s draining me
of my energy
I watch Developments get Arrested,
I’m thinking Tennessee
Can It Be It Was All So Simple then
Now identity for our youth is simpletons
Each attempt for them to gain self-esteem
Results in the pain of them shelvin their dreams
Unselfish it seems to get em out of that hole
So if they need to see success,
then I’ll model that role
And if they out of control,
or just wanna be heard more
I tell em anything that they want,
they gotta work for
Therefore in my course they gon’ think
Like I’ll lead the horse to water
and I’ll force it to drink
Now of course it’ll link to when I lecture on the mic
Cuz any true MC is a protector of the light
They expect it to be tight,
I expect it to stick with em
Til every word I said is embedded,
now that’s curriculum

Chorus
