you belong. i learned you gotta watch who you kick it with
cause a gun gon' always win against karate
people say they real but they counterfeit
claim they souljas but they ain't 'bout it 'bout it
jesus is who i'm rockin with
and i'm not ashamed to tell nobody
i'ma treat her like a queen even if she wanna be a thotty
for the first time in life i'm not afraid to be myself
i'm not selfish when i say i don't believe nobody else
it's not that i don't believe you cause i see you
it's just that people seemed to always wanna go and kick below the belt
only person i believe in is jesus
and they say i shouldn't say it i guess they don't believe it
they don't believe he's coming back to get all his children
or maybe they do and just afraid when they hear it
cause if you ain't you royal get outta the castle
i see people switchin' sides like they movin' tassel
give 'em an inch they takin' a mile they breakin' the line so no surprise when the quarterback gets tackled
and that's a hit that i'm prepared to take they get mad when you flex but they called you weak the whole time that you were lifting weights
prayin' while i'm drivin' cause they goin' outta turn at the four way that's two times i had do a double take
and i ain't lost one friend that i wanted back
see you gettin' hurt i swear to god i never wanted that
but you bought me some fireworks
now you good and well how fire works
but i do apologized that i fired back
i'm sorry i got a little distracted
i lost my head for a moment and i forgot i was rappin'
see i came to the realization it's not my imagination but i just rap about things that done actually happened
i'm just a rapper that got respect from the pastors
all black like the reaper but don't believe in the casket
i'm a coward with superpowers and dreads like static
and i'm not good at nothin' i just mastered my talent
all it took was four quarters so i'm feeling fantastic
gave it all to the master and he prevented disaster
vampire drinking blood i got it mixed with plasma
never good at being me i'm just your neighbourhood actor
sitting in my bedroom talking to the mirror
don't call me crazy i know that i can hear him
he said why you change what happened to your spirit
you used to be a real one
yea. my peers lack the drive only concerned with a benz
i'm with a group of my imaginary friends
they didn't wanna hear me when i called they hit forward not knowing that the end of that is really where my book just begins
and that line want over ya head i'm what you never projected
wasn't invited to the function didn't nobody expect us
had to play my part to get the role but now my name is in attendance so start being myself and they prolly just gone reject it
we never had no formal training we never went to take lessons
added a little bit of gold just to seem interesting
and i swear we not cocky we just can't hang with everybody cause it's a bad look for a king to go get played by his peasants
cause we execute ours kings we don't like people who are better
and try to tell us when we wrong we ain't respecting the reverend
god and santa claus the same you just gone beg for a blessing and then you gone say you don't believe because you never do get it
and every day i pray and ask i don't become hypocritic
and forget the one who owns my life and the reason i live it
cause i can rap about love for about 20 songs straight
and never take a break to go and give my grandma a visit
heart emojis only as real as the people who send it
hope i'm wise enough to recognize who really meant it
i apologize to anyone i've ever offended
but if life's a game i'm tryna win it by double digits
sitting in my bedroom talking to the mirror
don't call me crazy i know that i can hear him
he said why you change what happened to your spirit
what happened to you you used to be a real one
