Текст песни

I'm too deep, and yes much too complicated
My lines when stated are quite often underrated
So consider it a privilege to hear this
The weak-minded opinions could never come near this
For my outlook on life is a profound view
While the suckers act down thinkin' that they sound new
Only a few sound true, me and the crew know who
'Cause see me and the fellas have been waitin' for a while now
Givin' you the time to get your wack-ass style down
You punks pop junk as if life is a fantasy
Knowin' that hard is somethin' you can't be
So you front, but you can never call my bluff
You catch hell kid, you get dealt with
I never sleep, I always peep, rhymes creep
I'm too deep, I'm too deep, I'm too deep

I forgive you, psych! I'm takin' your life
'Cause you continue to disrespect so I'ma get trife
But then again I think I'll spare ya
'Cause I know that all it takes is one rhyme just to scare ya
See I'm the holder of the key
Don't ask me if I'm Muslim, don't say nothin' to me
I said I was raised like one son, I had two cousins
They pushed me to find myself or else they knew I wasn't
Gonna make it, and then end up a statistic
My life was twisted, I almost missed it
The chance, yes the chance to make you feel good
I used to steal goods and fake my parents out real good
But now I got K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E of self 'cause I'm me
And the Nation of Islam has my support
'Cause they try to re-educate ones who are lost
And the Five Percent Nation takes other steps
To get through to the brothers on the corners with the reps
And in the prisons, givin' the brothers new visions
Of how we can gain wealth and gain self-esteem
And dream, of a total different scene
I dress clean, stand lean, say what I mean and I'm out
Like a scout on a new route, exhibiting clout
I never sleep, I always peep, rhymes creep
I'm too deep, I'm too deep, I'm too deep

But right now, yo, my religion is rhymin'
Perfect timin', test the flow then climb in
Ansaar, Sunnite, Shiite, Jihad
All must regard that times are hard
United Pharisees the message that I cherish
That goes for my people of all religions
If we're all black, why have so many divisions?
Superficial factors are drivin' us apart
Don't let it happen, let's put some respect back in
So, before I act I think, 'cause it's the brink of destruction
World corruption, what's up son?
Your gun is just one, and I just might have one
Or two, or maybe even three or four
Plus an army of about one hundred or more
But violence, is never my first choice
I come in peace to release the effect of my voice
I never sleep, I always peep, rhymes creep
I'm too deep, I'm too deep, I'm too deep
