Scripture - 6lack
No matter what you can't take
what I've been through
Imagine if I never went through
what I went through
Yeah
Came up uh
Ayy I want more
Until I get it I won't slow
I'm on tour
Opening some brand new doors
On top but we came from the floor
Do you believe in foresight
I do haha 'cause I can't ignore life
Look I wrote this in a hotel
the size of a closet
Just to show you that I could do it
Just to show you
that it ain't much to it
If you got your hand out
don't be surprised
when I look at you stupid
Where were you
when it was me and the music
Don't compare me to no nigga
that I'm better than
Still new but my attitude veteran
And ain't nothing wrong with it
Since six I knew I was gon' get it
I ain't working
'til my palms start itchin'
Ever since a nigga
put a gun to my face
That shit do
really make you think yeah
I was thinking 'bout my kid yeah
Sixteen didn't even have a kid yeah
Them bullets really have you
thinking about your unborn
Imagine if my whole life was untorn
Imagine when that car flip
Don't call it defeating odds it's-
A blessing that I ain't gone yet
I've been getting closer to God yeah
Not a scripture
we been talking direct
straight line
Send for me
and I send you closer to God
yeah word
Yeah yeah yeah
I'm on pace
I figured out this shit ain't a race
Up the stakes
Got hungry then I scrape the plate
It ain't hard for me to change my ways
Do you believe in foresight
I do haha 'cause I cannot ignore life
Look the playing field
ain't never been even
I ain't 'bout to
make that shit either
See em' tryna copy my aura
they some readers
Study all you want
but I came up out that freezer
Getting bread across
the Mediterranean like a pita
You a heat seeker speak up
Niggas telling me to speed up
You can fit your talent in a B cup
Leaders of the new school
I think they need us
But first let me light my weed up
My intuition
ain't never led me astray
With all this shit on my plate
You'd think I'd be running in place
But I step to that mirror
look myself in the face
Can nobody take my place
said they got me then they flake
You can try you can test
You get sent to the gods
I'm a R&B nigga with a hip-hop core
Haha said I'm a R&B nigga
with a hip-hop core yeah
We just had to do that
if I don't rap anywhere on this
people are gon' hate me
