Gang Starr – Moment Of Truth

Album – Moment Of Truth (1998) a real hip hop song [some jamaican gwal] No matta wat we fyace We mus face de moment of trut baybe Chorus: guru They say it’s lonely at the top, in whatever you do You always gotta watch motherfuckers around you Nobody’s invincible, no plan is foolproof We all must meet our moment of truth Verse one: guru The same sheisty cats that you hang with, and do your thang with Could set you up and wet you up, nigga peep the language It’s universal, you play with fire it may hurt you Or burn you, lessons are blessings you should learn through Let’s face facts, although mc’s lace tracks It doesn’t mean behind the scenes there ain’t no dirt to trace back That goes for all of us, there ain’t nobody to trust It’s like sabotage, it’s got me ready to bust But I can’t jeapordize, what I have done up to this point So i’ma get more guys, to help me run the whole joint Cultivate, multiply, motivate, or else we’ll die You know I be the masterof the who what where and why See when you’re shinin, some chumps’ll wanna dull ya Always selfish jealous punks, will wanna pull ya Down, just like some shellfish in a bucket Cause they love it, to see your ass squirm like a worm But just as you’ll receive what is comin to you Everybody else is gonna get theirs too I ain’t no saint, therefore I cannot dispute That everyone must meet their moment of truth Chorus: guru Actions have reactions, don’t be quick to judge You may not know the harships people don’t speak of It’s
