Resurrection Morning

[Hook: Bilal]

A resurrection morning

The light goes

The sacrifice

The glory of the Ghost controls the soul

[Verse 1: Ghostface Killah]

Time to surrender your physical being

So I can hear, touch, and smell, and start seeing

Life as a precious gift given from God

So I can enjoy my seed and start healing these scars

Take this knife and push it through your windpipe slowly

Come on Lester Kane, you better show me

You a man of your word, fuck the criminal conduct

You gotta sacrifice your life or else your time's up

He took the knife, the look on his face got calmer

I watched him take his life like a suicide bomber

[Verse 2: Raekwon & Ghostface Killah]

It's time to go, I made a promise and I'm a man of my word

Fuck it, I'm a G and my bond will never swerve

I dreamt about this time and this place and I swear I've seen it

Now I'm face-to-face with a death angel

Thinking about the lies that I took with no strife

Standing here holding a knife, now I'm 'bout to take my own life

But it's for a good reason (Yeah)

My spirit needs to be replenished so I offer my soul to be relinquished

[Verse 3: Ghostface Killah]

Lifeless, his body left slumped in a chair

It was time to become one, but my mind wasn't there

I wasn't sure if I wanted to walk this corrupt Earth

Smell sweat instead of fear, give up my powers

Be a simple man, let alone a ruthless killer

Crime boss syndicate, another sinner

Murderer, take lives like mine's was once taken

Or leave my seed in this cold world, my heart's aching

[Verse 4: Raekwon]

Man up soldier, no need to back it up now

I'm in a large space, beauty queens feeding me grapes

Jewels all thick and clusty

Me, the father, and rusty

What's the matter with you? Talking about you're not sure anymore

Did you lie to your brother Kane or did I die in vain?

You don't wanna be a sinner but sinning is in your veins

You a general, love the life of running in the city

Pretty women, lots of money, doing anything you want

Think about it, me and you as one force

There's no limit to where we can take it

Time is ticking, jump up in my corpse

And be the true and living king that you are, you need to live again

So you can enjoy the fruits and shine like the stars

Drink the finest wines and dine on exotic foods

Help the people who never helped, dropping a little jewels

Son you hesitating - I didn't hesitate for you

When it was my time to go, I cocked it and showed prove

[Hook: Bilal]

A resurrection morning

The light goes

The sacrifice

The glory of the Ghost controls the soul
