WOW

It's been a long time coming All praise be Give God the glory Yo Yo I couldn't help nobody till I helped myself All my wealth was no good when I lost my health Played the cards I was dealt as God guided my steps And both family then friends took exit stage left On the lonely harsh path the success is brutal But I'm strong enough to take it that feeling ain't mutual I made a space to develop and grow Where it's quiet I can hear my innermost up close without a bias And I'm sick and damn tired of energy vampires Inspired by the infinite light I stay aligned with right I found pain as a catalyst to change This comfort is a feeling I disdain I never wanted fame and only sought the work that it brings These humble man boots bear fruits you can't claim As I bask in sunshine my roots go unseen I'm like wow I went up now I'm feeling like wow I'm still up now I'm feeling like wow Hip hop you got me feeling like wow y'all Wow Yo This ain't the last stage Apocalypse rise A final phase I pray for peace in old age Carry faith to the grave and give God praise Poverty's under our Lord's authority Satan remains With my remains Still I broke the body of Jah In remembrance So symbolic it hurt brothers Couldn't see God's self within And I felt prayer And silenced the tears of fallen peers Who passed with the years Resurrected me right here And it's so clear A visual pain Residual strain To make gains Balancing Money or fame You go insane Cocaine corrupted the vein And for our culture locked down Trying to break that chain Cops arrest Yet communities protest The game we assessed Aim and started licking shots at our frame But black fire rain ain't the first death How many times can a man die and yet be reborn inside light I'm like wow I went up now I'm feeling like wow I'm still up now I'm feeling like wow Hip hop you got me feeling like wow y'all Wow
