 Irits -  First Born

This is gathering time, 
This is gathering time 
Can't sit down on the corner and lime 

I've got to get myself together 
Face the wet and dusty weather 
My Irits has got to be so high 

“Cause sometimes it's rough, real rough 
Another time it's tough, real tough 
But I ain't plan to sit down with a puff 
I've got to do something 
Help has always been given to those 
Who help themselves 
Ain't planning on being no stock upon your shelf 
As faithful as I want to be I've got to 
Continue my works 
‘Cause faith without works is death, 
This I know so. 

Chorus 
I've got to get myself together 
Face the wet and dusty weather 
My Irits has got to be so high 

Cause I'm a man that's who I am 
My responsibilities I give to no one 
Give thanks Father you have made me able 
Put enough food upon my family table 
Now all I've got to be is more creative 
‘Cause they all depend upon me to live 
Mama's still alive I've got to have 
Something to give 
I've got brothers and sisters I really care for 
So 

Chorus 

Blessed is the child that has his own 
Bless! Bless! Bless! Bless! Bless! Bless! 
So I ain't gonna plan papa's execution 
Just because him have a few million 
Ain't gonna pray for mama to dead 
For me and the family a fight 
Over the house and the big fancy bed 
I really got to be better than that 
Meditation has to be firm as a rock 
Mind has to be ticking as a clock 
To get and to keep the little that I've got 
Don't want to be like ‘Haddy' 
Who always talk about what him have 
And today can't give 
Don't have nothing to give 
[I an' I don't want to be in them loafing business)

Chorus 
I've got to get myself together 
Face the wet and dusty weather 
My meditation has got to be so high
