11. The Movement
*lyrics by Plaedo/Contains Cornel West Speech/Produced by: Mes One/Mixed and Mastered by John Philip Buzis.
*John PHillip Buzis mastered my album. And that was quite the 7 month journey for the both of us. It was tough and frustrating, as has been much of my career. And life is the same way, it's a test of endurance. The forces of good and evil engage in a sort of sport. An endless contest. And this anthemic beat by Mes One was the perfect acccompaniment for this subject matter.

Lyrics

I've traveled through hell
trying to make it to heaven
so I'm living every minute
like it is game 7
Getting Fresher Under Pressure
So if we're behind
and the clock is running out
pass me the ball and I'll make it now
we're be up again
I won't let you down
believe me, the easiest
you'll ever make will be the
hardest path you'll ever walk
and sometimes the saddest are the kindist
the most damaged are the wisest
and you will need courage
for that moment of crises
this is food for thought, come get your plate
I'm a master chef, master mind, turn mind into matter
bend time backwards, so before I say this
you'll already love it
I'm the white trash ambassador, with a flow like a catheter
now watch me back it up
I'm a master mind like Einstein
is my reletive, my E=MC, I wave peace
so I am squared, blunted
ready for the come up
shout out to the runners

Chorus
But if you cant run it is time to walk
and if you can't walk it is time to crawl
I've been there ya'll, we gotta keep moving

Years ago, I was an amateur
Now I'm turning pro
and I wont be diminished, by any of the critics
I'm in it to win it
you won't see no sinnin', in the 9th innin'
only discipline and wisdom and vision
I didn't get specific, so you could bear witness
to what you are livin
this minute is infinite
I hope you isn't missin it,
shout out to the movement

Chorus
But if you cant run it is time to walk
and if you can't walk it is time to crawl
I've been there ya'll, we gotta keep moving

In this game we play
no pain no gain
so you will be disrespected and misdirected,
but you can check this off your checklist
for those of you who use debt as a weapon
no more, no longer, are we half steppin'
our eyes on the prize, we want a better life
for ourselves, our team, our city,
and even Mother Earth for what it's worth
we're pursuing the solutions,
so what is the movement, it is the revolution
as we departed Eden, as we started seeking
the meaning, of dreaming, as a human being,
on the other side of Ommm,
A team arose
playing for keeps, destroying the earth,
with it's poisonous cleats, trying to cheat
this mass consumption was huffing and puffing
til it ran out of air, it ran out of breathe,
and it quite right there, in it's despair
we pushed on, because this isn't a sprint,
this is a marathon,
listen to the chorus of this song

Chorus
Because if you can't run it is time to walk
and if you can't walk it is time to crawl
I've been there y'all
we gotta keep moving
