Workin' over Time

Verse 1

I've been a long way - from where I first grew up as a child

My understanding was a gentlemen’s touch - though I was wildin' -

I could levitate

Things with my mind

Though I was silent

I was movin' to the Kingpins drum

But I denied Him

He's never seen

Know what I mean?

So when I'm cryin'

I rejected that there's good in the air - turnin' to crime and

My next moves

Swing with a crew

Choosin' for violence

We on the block

Hustlin' a twenty four

Livin' idle

The centerpiece of my whole being

Somethin' inside me -

Told me run the streets

Roll with a G

See what’s residin’

I'm thankful for the days

On end

We sat and vibed it

I caught the whole play of the streets

Recon divinely

So now I swing swords over beats

Teach em to rally

The choke hold

Is findin' release

I see them risin' -

The world I'm tryna build for my niece

I'm on assignment

'Cause these mountains never fall to they knees -

Until we climb em

Interlude:

That’s the truth right there

But what did you expect?

Verse 2

The brokeback -

Click on attack

Tryna to guide them

They infiltrated schools

With their rules

The new asylum

This senseless

Missional deafness

Abidin -

The church don't do they work anymore

They'd rather chide em

Confusion of identity -

Some men would be

Spiritually restless

I guess they don't consult with the checklist

Identify

Then sanctify

So you could fly - over these missles

'Cause that's what it means that God blessed you

Ob-session

To keep His Word

And make it heard

Relentless

To speak those Words

While usin' verbs

My guess is

You follow the Sage

While skippin' pages

But Christ said

Check on his wages -

Sen' in an angel

My gauge is for street conditions - So listen

We'll never find a place with the King

If we ain't buildin'

So many are deluded with false hopes

They're kingdom

Is planted very firm in the sand

Wait til the end comes
