333, I’m up late again, writing like I sold my soul at a crossroads

But the joke’s on those that assume, so my soul covered in the blood like potholes

Safe with apostles

Paint like Picasso, I’m indebted

To save all these lost souls, came with the hot flows, take off the blindfolds, lies embedded

Try this tenet

(Don’t be) Don’t be tricked by the ones bewitched by the strobes and the gold and the bottles

Gold on road to an Oz with lies, that’s hidden? No, try this tenet

Me, Belmont alumna; dad went to A&T and Rutgers; mama UVA and Bennett

A lot of academics, a lot of spending, none of it altered how we comprehend it

They just pretend, we living it, eh

This beat hitting, isn’t it? (Try it)

Win and then, win again like we, like we rigged it

Try this tenet

They ain’t been spitting it like we, they just been fibbing it likely

Saying it, living it like we, like we meant it

Try this tenet

The vibe’s lit, innit? Trying to make them feel like they can really know who God is

Cause 'nuff of these man be faking: still, act spiritual, but they God-less

They say, they say what's real, but

Say what’s real only goes so far as where it is your heart is

You better put it with God like hardship

Lay your burdens down like carpet, right at the feet of the carpenter

‘Cause you know Christ has dominion, no demon curse counts like an exemption

Don’t need a verse, I’ll write an amendment

Quoting the First, in Christ we assembling

Know we deserve hellfire, but he’s risen

So we’ll emerge and fly with a pension

Don’t meet him first, you’ll fly like a penguin

Don’t read a verse out like an opinion, that greyed out vision, the line keeps thinning (Uhh)

And what a new time that we live in, it plays out line by line as written

(Da-da-da) With a rhythm and 717, got ears on us, but that’s like fifteen minutes

Tick-tick-tick, bet a second don’t pass, they’ll forget it

But I won’t write them off so easy

Breezy, cover girl, but they can’t see me

I got one wife and I’m safe, don’t need women to make my day, got my Pippen to my MJ

I’m okay, Sade cheffing that rhythm combined with bass

No safe, I’ll never lock up my faith

They just pretend, we living it, eh

This beat hitting isn’t it? (Try it)

Win and then win again like we, like we rigged it

Try this tenet

They ain’t been spitting it like we, they just been fibbing it likely

Saying it living it like we, like we meant it

Try this tenet

Try this

Try-try-try this

Try this-try this

Try this
