wise man tales

Y'all need to hear this again Just in case y'all forgot A wise man once said You live and you learn Asked him bout death He said, "shit, gotta wait your turn" Went to the church cause I had questions I need to learn The Usher standing at the door said "Just let it burn" A wise man once said You live and you learn Asked him bout death He said, "shit, gotta wait your turn" Went to the church cause I had questions I need to learn The Usher standing at the door said "Just let it burn" I got a story bout this one nigga I used to know He worked everyday on an album Just In hopes he could blow I watched him everyday in the distance Because I didn't know Him Personally But his talent it shows He dropped his first single called "Celebrate" And then it was "Vibes" "Jumping out the sky" "Yellow Tape" then it was "Pac" He dropped "The Flannel Tape" And it happened Nigga he popped He dropped another tape and damn Nigga it flopped But I realize there was a change in his friends The ones he had before success Those the ones that he pushed to the end He had an Entourage, But they they only there for the ends And he when started loosing fans He started losing friends I guess it got to him Because now He popping them xans Smoking weed, other pills, sipping lean I'm like damn He said he'll Never do drugs Because he knew of a man That taught him how to rap And he didn't wanna be like him A wise man once said Don't argue with fools Because the people In the distance Can't tell who is who Went to church to talk to God They said that his shift was through Would you have dinner with the devil If there's a table for 2? I prayed to heavens above Went through the depths of the sea Then I realize that I'm talking about me One man said "it's guilt" Another said "in due time" Talked to my nigga and he said Bruh "Nigga that's God You gotta realize when he's giving a sign You a mission to complete before you're completely out of time" I said "how did you know?" He said "cause I see you realer" He said "look me in the eyes" Then I looked in the mirror I never felt as if there wasn't a God Because I always believed And had faith although I couldn't see I know some don't understand But I got an example to plan You always expect to feel wind When you plug up a fan It's hard to explain But that's how God feels to me How would you explain Colors to someone that can't see How would you explain to a fish That there's more than the sea Sick morbidly, But it's some people that is older than me That struggle in finding they self Feel like they stuck in the system And when god was giving out his blessings They felt like he missed em So they open up they bible For a slither of hope But feel can't save you I know a preacher that died from a stroke I heard about another situation That's Involving some folks Inside a church in Charleston When Dylan roof had came and Randomly shot em And at that moment Life shifted at a dime because the moment that you think you got time Is when you run out of time Damn They might wanna see you fall You understand what I'm saying? "Yes sir" You understand what I'm saying? "Yes sir" This shit is real man It's real I been on the road God just save my soul God just give me hope I been on the road God just save my soul God just give me hope
