I Hope I Do It Justice Video (MV)

Justice
I hope I do it justice
Justice
I hope I do it justice
I grew up privileged in this social system
Now I see that but at first I missed it
I don't wanna be another white passing man
Sitting on the sidelines, wanna take a stand
Help dismantle all of the oppression
See, when we've all become one we've won, that's a leaven (eleven)
That'll lift up humanity
Use my voice to change the world to heaven that's my dream
Blessed with a great woman, that's my wife
She brought me back to God to waken up my spirit, saved my life
Then I, found my calling working with the kids
And the youth to help them mine their gems, that's a gift
Now I've got three of my own
Lead them down the right path, that's my noble goal
To sacrifice my selfish ways, and show them all what love is
I hope I do it justice
Only get one life to live
So I'm trying to give all that I got to give
Before it's time to meet God, and I'm brought to Him
I hope I do it justice, yeah
Cause God the only One that can judge my life
But He also knows I know what is wrong from right
You judge a lamp by how bright it shines a light
I hope it I do it justice, yeah
They say it is easier said than done
It's not words, but deeds for which we will be judged
I'll never be perfect, but I gotta bring myself to account on the daily
To amount to why God made me
Too often I, got my eye on my Apple, instead of the apples of my eye
Outsmarted by my phone I, think I really need to monitor my time screen time
I, keep, yelling at my kids to stop yelling
Be more patient I impatiently tell 'em
Nothing humbles me like being a father, that's a blessing
And I hope it I do it justice
A true father is an educator
Family comes first
No responsibility is greater than teaching you right from wrong
And how to worship Our Creator
I hope it I do it justice
Only get one life to live
So I'm trying to give all that I got to give
Before it's time to meet God, and I'm brought to Him
I hope I do it justice, yeah
Cause God the only One that can judge my life
But He also knows I know what is wrong from right
You judge a lamp by how bright it shines a light
I hope it I do it justice, yeah
So many greats in the past and the present,
Of Hip Hop, I'm studying and learning from the legends,
Of lyricism and flow, rhymes and rhythms and the
Originality it takes to captivate your soul
Bring authenticity, use similes and imagery
Like birthing new ideas in your mind with my delivery
And when I rap it's coming from my soul, I do it spiritually, yeah
I hope it I do it justice,
So many greats in the past and the present
Of the Faith of Baha'u'llah
To bring me inspiration, yeah
But how will live up to all the lofty expectations
Of sacrifice and selflessly serving
That is the station of a true Baha'i
And if I am being honest with you
Well mine feels infinitely distant from my true design
May God help me to improve my shine
I hope it I do it justice
Only get one life to live
So I'm trying to give all that I got to give
Before it's time to meet God, and I'm brought to Him
I hope I do it justice, yeah
Cause God the only One that can judge my life
But He also knows I know what is wrong from right
You judge a lamp by how bright it shines a light
I hope it I do it justice, yeah
I hope I do it justice
It is everything in this life
It's being a husband, a father, an artist, an agent of positive change
A Baha'i, a child of God, all of it
I'm just trying to be a good human being while I'm on this Earth
I hope I do it justice
