Bun B & Cory Mo Hesitate

As we’ve seen with recent releases from artists such as KRS One, RZA, and Nas, Hip-Hop’s OGs have been putting out some pretty decent music as of late, and Bun B and Cory Mo’s new single, titled “Hesitate,” is no exception. The feel-good track finds Bun B and Cory Mo assembling some of their fellow veteran rappers for a song about coming to terms with one’s past, embracing religion, and the concept of freedom.

Joining the duo is the legendary lyricist Talib Kweli, Missipii’s own David Banner, and Cincoriginals artist Tobe Nwigwe, and together, the artists form an unlikely super-team that delivers an impressive first single for Bun B and Cory Mo’s newly announced collab album Mo Trill.

Lyrics

[Chorus: Tobe Nwigwe]
I spoke to Yahweh, I’ve been meditatin’
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things)
(Cory Mo)
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things)
I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things)
I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things
I spoke to Yahweh, I’ve been meditatin’
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things

[Verse 1: Bun B]
Lately I’ve been puttin’ my life into perspective
Reflective of my past, bein’ retrospective
Lookin’ at the good and the bad, then my early days
Wonderin’ if I still got a path to the pearly gates
Life wasn’t always the way that it is today
You can take me there, I’m losin’ my life just to pray
But nowadays, I’m more conscious of my ways
And all it takes is me wakin’ up to give Him praise
Came a long way from who I was and what I did once
All I used to care about was sippin’ drink and big blunts
But now I got a family and they countin’ on me
To give ’em what they need I climb the highest mountain, homie
So every day I’m workin’ on the enemy
To find the best way that I could balance all my energy
Nobody’s perfect, no matter what it look like on the surface
Just hopin’ I get closer to my purpose, say amen

[Chorus: Tobe Nwigwe & Talib Kweli]
I spoke to Yahweh, I’ve been meditatin’
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things)
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things)
I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things, yeah)
I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (Yeah)
I spoke to Yahweh, I’ve been meditatin’ (Turn me up a lil’ bit)
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things

[Verse 2: Talib Kweli]
I’m on a course switchin’ over to God, I got the devil waitin’
I’m outlastin’ ’em, outcast and I’m elevatin’
Keymaster lookin’ for keepers of heaven’s gate
He faster to beat, them others hesitate
Here’s the situation, all them snitchers be sayin’ some things
Actin’ like a bro ain’t playin’, Mama wanna sing
Just because I’m from the ‘hood don’t mean I gotta bang
Our neighborhood affiliated, the police a gang
They say my name but say it sore like under they breath
We mutilated like people livin’ under the steps
We stayin’ pressed, there’ll be none of us left
The fool death, it got ’em thirsty for blood, hunger for death
They give us scratch from the feast, we actin’ like we amazed
Street blacks like beasts, they lock us right in a cage
Every day I fight for freedom ’cause it’s not just a phase
I’m not just slayin’, people don’t get to tell me how to behave, nah

[Chorus: Tobe Nwigwe & David Banner]
I spoke to Yahweh, I’ve been meditatin’
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things)
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things)
I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things)
I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things
I spoke to Yahweh, I’ve been meditatin’ (Yeah, yeah)
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things

[Verse 3: David Banner]
I’m like Nelly wit’ a visa, you only show me off at nighttime
Fight time is what it is ’cause I hit killer kids
What y’all want? Pray wit’ ’em and stay wit’ ’em
Build back up to slay, quarters to stay wit’ ’em, yeah
Wantin’ to slay ’em in the name of the promise?
They come knockin’ at my door, watch ’em runnin’ ’em off
We were fine before they put hell in our mind
And died seven times and found we could travel through time
Through my ancestors, no more, no less
Ain’t no tide on no feed dot, wanna be free, yeah
But y’all pimpin’ religion, pushin’ division, cool (Yeah)
I want my family back, forty, you can take a mule (Yeah)
I’ma keep it too, bustin’ back in tune (In tune)
Call me [Makmu?], I do Ryu (Yeah)
Hear a Mississippi shooter, y’all don’t get it, though (Though)
Y’all talkin’ God, do you really live it, though? (Live it, though)

[Chorus: Tobe Nwigwe]
I spoke to Yahweh, I’ve been meditatin’
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things)
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things)
I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things (On some things)
I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things
I spoke to Yahweh, I’ve been meditatin’
He told me that heaven’s waitin’, I told Him I’m hesitatin’ on some things
