The Square & Compass Lyrics

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Came from the struggle, built it brick by brick

Measured my steps and never played it quick

They kept my angle sharp, like a master's plan

Followed the blueprint, and became a better man

Truth in my heart, wisdom in my hand

Walk the righteous path, never shift like sand

In every line I draw, gotta keep it straight

Molded by the fire, but I carry no hate

Work the square, and comfort's got my way

Work will keep me righteous, never stray

Balance my mind, my soul, my crime

Elevate higher, leave the past behind

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Built my temple with patience, no shortcuts here

She for the greatness, the vision stays clear

Lessons from the past, ingrained in stone

I was lost, but the light led me back to the throne

From the east, where the wisdom shines so bright

But to stand tall, unified in light

They don't understand, but the work's been done

Legacy is eternal, like the rising sun

Work the square, and comfort's got my way

Work will keep me righteous, never stray

Balance my mind, my soul, my crime

Elevate higher, leave the past behind

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Hold me accountable, check my design

Master of my fate, architect of my mind

Every tool I use has a purpose divine

From the darkness, I rise, let the symbols align

Gotta keep my foundation strong

Built for the test, I ain't never gone wrong

From the first degree to the lessons I see

It's the art of life, and it's molding me

Whisper my vows, never break my code

Path of enlightenment, that's the road

Whether sun or moon, day or night

I move in truth, always seeking the light

Work the square, and comfort's got my way

Work will keep me righteous, never stray

Balance my mind, my soul, my crime

Elevate higher, leave the past behind

Yeah, yeah, get a chance at my masterpiece in the making

I'me up with something greater than just today

This is legacy

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
