If I May Lyrics


Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe
Here we go again
Slip into my conscience, come along an take in
A story 'bout a battle in this corner, Satan
Cunning, baffling, and jumping into half the drink
And suddenly disasters and catastrophe
And acting unrationally, reacting savagely
To passionately, bask in everlasting like escapes
From just what it's creating
Jeopardizin' love
Look at all the people that you took advantage of
See your hypnotized, Rom be gone
Take another cup, in consequences lurk
While the reaper got your shirt size

Nigga, wake up
Times overdue for the birth of a power
That the universe grew from
Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe
Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe
You search for the answers outside
Refocus causin' time and time again, backslide
You've noticed times before the presence of that I
But never did submit to it and let it apply
Whatever be his will in this present lifetime
Or essence like mine
Know the blessings you might find
If you let your higher power inside, emerge and apply
To every single thing in your balance
You will truly find, who you really are
Die and become reborn when God is present in your life
Then you can come reap on
And ain't a storm that you can't weather
You got a purpose you was born to create
Destiny is waitin' for you, arms open, take with ya
Knowledge bestowed by the great giver
Lakes, rivers, mountains and steams
Now reality's the dream [Incomprehensible]
No more searchin' for truth that was always wit' cha
It had to hit ya through the struggle and the turmoil
Ya soul was planted and it sprouted out above soil
And let the sun shine freely down
At times it looked like it wouldn't
But the plant came to flourish
Now it's standin' on solid ground
Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe
Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe
Sun rises like water up in my eyes
I'm watchin' changing times but like a changing tide
Tryna to keep my head above the ed if I could be
The sun rises like water up in my eyes
I'm watchin' changing times but like a changing tide
Tryna to keep my head up above the ed if I could be
Least, If I may
Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe
Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe
Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe
Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe

Gift Of Gab (Tim Parker) and Chief Xcel (Xavier Mosley) met at John F. Kennedy High School in 1987 in Sacramento, California and formed the group in the early 1990s. They released their first recording, "Swan Lake", on solesides records. The Solesides Crew consisted of the duo, as well as other friends of theirs they had met at University of California - Davis, including DJ Shadow, Lyrics Born and Lateef The Truth Speaker. The single was an underground hit, but label trouble prevented the duo from immediately capitalizing on their fame.

In late 1997, Solesides became quannum projects and in 1999 Blackalicious released the A2G EP, which served as a precursor to their debut full length album, Nia, which was released the following year. This was followed by a major label contract with MCA Records and the release of the critically acclaimed album Blazing Arrow in 2002.

In May 2004 Gift of Gab released his first solo album, 4th Dimensional Rocketships Going Up, but he assured fans that Blackalicious was alive and well.

A third full length, entitled The Craft, was released on Epitaph Records imprint ANTI- on September 27, 2005.
