[Hook: Jack Davey]

As I wait for atonement

Trapped in the heat of the moment

Feelin' like I can't control it

As I wait for atonement

Trapped in the heat of the moment

[Verse: Black Thought]

Uh-huh, feelin' the steam from the cauldron

With tension runnin' deep as the ocean

Many are called, but so few are chosen

As I go through the motions, of medication, uppin' my dosage

Bangin' Earth, Wind & Fire "Devotion" as I admire the focus

Takin' the city with a grain of salt

Where they tastin' foul, chase it down, with the latest malt liquor

Roll and hit it, knife did it, hope you got some smarts wit'chu

Hope you got some heart, it ain't no stoppin' when it start, nigga

Feel somethin' bigger got a hold on me

And I ain't trippin', not a Bobby Brown, lippin' with my nose runnin'

Basically I had two options I just chose one

And then got ghost, like my picture was on a 'Most Wanted'

Coast to coast, from L.A. to Chicago

Now I'm faced with the weight of survival, 

Plus the taste, from the way I been lied to

While the preacher man spittin' his gospel

I can win if I try to

[Hook: Jack Davey]

As I wait for atonement

Trapped in the heat of the moment

Feelin' like I can't control it

As I wait for atonement

Trapped in the heat of the moment
