歌词
What you doing listening to that blues music
That was code that if I ain’t glorify God then you ain’t pose to choose it
Little did I know it was my greatest addiction
Hard to put it down really I’ll tell the story non fiction
Always been an entertainer since the days of mr microphone
Pick an artist any artist catch me out here singing songs
Made a move Memphis with my mama at a young age
To find out I had church roots now I’m turning a new page
A Holy Bible Belt household me and my Cuzzos knew it
An y’all know kids will be kids so that secular influence
Took it toll but we respected Grandmas boundaries
But some of the music that we played would call for the sound to be
Turned down to the lowest of levels we knew we’d get in trouble
trying to play nothing but church music it was a struggle
We loved God just as much as the next but when that make em say uhhh was on the radio it was time to flex
School ain’t make it no better you know how that go
When that Sip Sip Sip sippin on some syrup flow
How could you respond makes me clap my hands and stomp my feet
Kirk Franklin was cool but ain’t no way it out do these beats
Mama got some cable in the house
it introduced us to the box network we got to learn what that’s about
Are you that somebody introduced us to Aaliyah
Oops I did again Brittany Spears you know we see ya
Sometimes we played a song that our grandma would sing
Not knowing it was really secular music and then some things
Took a turn when a curse word was uttered
Turn off that devilish mess she said
we sat there and stuttered
Grandmas house we ran by grandmas rules
we rebelled a little bit but Sally never raised no fools
It’s ironic maybe how the blues may be
A lotta sounds I shouldn’t have heard but it still made me
An artist with that Godly influence blended with southern culture
Organically I’m Tennessee the way I live is kosher
Good on head on my shoulders
Prayer is like my Folgers
The best part when I wake up especially when I’m older
Love how much you live
And live how much love
Gotta family of musicians on both sides I speak of
So no matter the style no matter the genre of music
I take my talents up to God and I promise I will not abuse it
