Full Plates

(album: Mad Haven - 2013)

I know they want it all

What's up takes this to the head like a bottle son
You better practice what you preach that's the motto, son
And they think they smart cuz they memorize verses,
Boy anybody can regurgitate sermons and I ain't even impressed by the ones in churches

Folk be tryna swallow more bible knowledge,
Get a couple as in bible college that's cool but what about tryna model that book you holding
Aye try to follow

Some talk it good but don't walk good, they eat up facts and don't meditate
They a sit around and have deep talks but the lifestyle so disarrayed

Can't have more without being faithful, I heard that said from so and so
Or maybe that was said by such and such
That's the goal, now hustle up

We don't need no more talk boxes
I been down for that education
Sponges don't just soak it up, they squeeze it out, that's application

I know they want it all, I know they want it all yea [x2]
1st round hold up, I don't know what you thought of, that second round for empty plates until they eat that all up [x2]

Now don't try say and say I don't love knowledge, I ain't hatin on geeks bru,
I love that wisdom that come around so toss it up, get geeked up

But you can't keep tryna get more
Bible and you don't even manifest what you had, just greedy bru,
unfaithful don't be that dude that talk but can't walk it out

And I ain't even gone use metaphors
It's enough for me tryna just spell it out,
instead of tryna get super deep just take the wisdom then flesh it out

You probably think I ain't go deep enough, like spit a couple triple entendre right
Metaphors, that real rap, say a line that'll smash mics

But I ain't tryna be nobody favorite rapper,
I just wanna give you that real life,
I got views for anybody,
That's insight, and it's insight

Application yes application live the gospel just be about it,
That I'll living that real difference, between yo talk and real life I promise

Yea they so greedy eating everything
They talking second but they plates got everything
Bible college seminary got everything, and ain't seen no fruit but still that want everything

I know they want it all, I know they want it all yea [x2]
1st round hold up, I don't know what you thought of, that second round for empty plates until they eat that all up [x2]
