Lyrics

Verse 1
Wise words from the wisest
David’s boy King Solomon
I got my wisdom from the highest
Israel's your highness I've written down all my insights
Show you how to live well, right and understand life
Blueprint, way before Sean Carter I got the order
What’s right, just and fair
This a guide to follow for ya
This for the youngin who look to the world for something
The same road the devil leads you down, he will leave you on it
This world’s deadly it derails you if you let it
Pray my words give you wisdom to seek knowledge and discretion
Even if you been ridin’ a while this for you to
Pray the wise increase in learning, pray God guide you
From proverbs to parables my whole playbook is solid
The reason for rhymes and riddles of wise been plotted
The fear of the Lord is beginning of all the knowledge
But fools despise wisdom try to do it without Him
Verse 2
Son don’t forget all the game that I gave you
What you learned at Momma's knee
Wear them words like they a crown on your head
A chain on your neck, a superbowl ring
All of your friends ain’t your friends
Some of ya homies you running with snakes
They try to tempt you with sinning and venom
You might have to cut ‘em just do what it takes
Okay!
Let’s say they say,
I know this spot not too far from my block
We can just pull up and watch ‘em and plot
Because all of ‘em innocent we got the drop
Just like She’ol let’s swallow em whole
We get the money, the jewels the gold
Let’s take what they got and then take em for moe
We gone split what we get and link up with the bros
No no no...
That’s not the path you really wanna walk
They looking for blood
They running to evil
Got stuck in the trap not knowing they caught
Look
You know how it go
You live by the sword you gon’ die by that knife (Matthew 26:52)
They guided by greed it clouded ya sight
They ran up the bag but paid with their life
Bridge
Call of Lady Wisdom:
“Please, listen to my call. I’m begging, listen to the call of wisdom. I’m crying out to you, listen before it’s too late. Listen to me. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of all knowledge. Please, listen.”
Verse 3
Simpleton why are you stuck in your ignorance
How many times you gon’ keep on missing it
Mockers delight in their mocking
And fools hate knowledge you’re clearly not listening
Want you to repent and turn from your wickedness
Take my advice and please hear what I say
I wanna pour out my spirit on you
Let you know my thinking and teach you my ways
I keep on calling but you never picking up
I text you you left me on read
I know that you be ignoring my calls
So I just hang up and hit you back again
But since you don’t listen and won’t pay attention
Ignoring advice and laugh at rebuke
I’m ah pull you on you
And when tragedy strikes I’m a laugh at it too
When you get down to your last
And you're really down bad
And the walls close in
And the whole world pitch black
Overtook by the storm
Calamity comes like a whirlwind
When it’s distress and disaster
Ya life turn to ashes
And all of its falling apart
Then you gon’ look for me
But you won’t find me
Since you hated knowledge and didn’t fear of The Lord
Rejected my consul didn’t want my reproof
Ill gotten and rotten now eat all that fruit
A fool is gon’ die by the hand of a fool
And my way is easy but you gotta choose
My way is light
My way is peace
My way is ease
But you gotta choose
