Miracles - Arrested Development

We used to dream about changing the world

With a style that was universal

Real and commercial

Heal and immerse you in the waters

Tired of seeing lost black sons and daughters

But in 94 we slipped a notch, no juice over the years

Couldn’t piss the pot

Hip hop went insane but 10 years later back in the game

C’mon push up the faders cuz we believe in miracles

I believe in Miracles yeah yeah

I believe in you

And Harriet Tubman would tell us…

Don’t stop yawl get down, just rock yawl get down

We’re made of more than this, don' t let em define us, don’t let em confine us

we’re warriors

From the underground railroads we sneaked thraugh swamps to sit VIP in a

restaurant

Hill Side projects get down

North Side project get down

They give us platinum medallions to cover our hearts

Keep us far away from the most powerful parts of us

Cuz if they keep us looking outside then we won’t bother looking inside

I’m too old a dude to be scared of flopping we’re from the old school this is

real hip hopping

And we talk about wht we see, won’t dumb it down

Cuz I ain’t around dumb company

We smarter than this

And we can come harder than this and do a brag rap on the next song on the disc

Cuz right now you know you’re all in the midst of miracles!

I believe in Miracles yeah yeah

I believe in you

B-boy Filipino’s Asians Latinos you feel me as I kick this stee-lo?

Cyphers round the world got a knife around the neck of the world

But only demanding respect & girls

What a waste of power hip hop in the most powerful hour

Like Babel we’re building our tower

But we got a chance- while the whole worlds under our trance

Who’s gonna use it so the folks can advance

Cuz we believe in miracles

I believe, I believe in you take me higher

I believe in Miracles yeah yeah

I believe in you
