Bible Verses

(album: The Black Blood LP - 2017)

I lay my head before I pray
If rapture strikes it might wait
And what can take the pain away
I'm just preparing for the day
I got my motherfucking dope on the side of me
I keep it low I got one rolled on the side of me
Them niggas know I keep it cold on the side of me
And even though I got no hope left inside of me
I keep it pushing to the death

Revelations, revelations, I can see it
It do not take a genius to be in agreeance
There's evil all around me, peace of mind are screaming
"Oh the rapture coming soon, relinquish all my demons"
I don't think that I'm mad enough
All praise to the most high, back it up
The bright lights you seek full of sinning nonsense
Bad transgressions affect the conscious
Came from the soul tell em check the content
The cross that I bear is for peace of mind
I eat the apple, I was out of line when I wrote it
Quoting that scripture, words that I dive in
Kings that we [?]
Hope the Lord hear us
Saving them braces
Never forsake us
Lost in your graces
Love is amazing
[?] is eccentric
This an extension
Tension I'm feeling
Father release me
All I need is faith in this lifetime
Nigga let it go and let God help ya
Focus I don't see no distractions
Niggas tryna be mad wealthy
I'm just tryna be mad happy
My pursuit has been a lonely one
Got me feeling like the Mad Hatter
Hatred, that's not in my repertoire
Love thy enemy and carry on
I'm like David in the lion's den
Been taking [?] bitch, I follow 'em

I lay my head before I pray
If rapture strikes it might wait
And what can take the pain away
I'm just preparing for the day
I got my motherfucking dope on the side of me
I keep it low I got one rolled on the side of me
Them niggas know I keep it cold on the side of me
And even though I got no hope left inside of me
I keep it pushing to the death

Lost souls, new youths to the same religion
Evil minds baptized inside a mental prison
The Devil talking to me, I refuse to give in
The Devil talking to me, I refuse to listen
As salaam alaikum, mean bacon with a bow tie
We was all I need, send them praises to the most high
You was out running with them dirty rats, sewer shit
Niggas lacking faith and wondering why they never doing shit
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
Away from all the foolishness
The rich are ruling this
And their hands are killers and hooligans
Blam!
Never really seen a motherfucker like me when I get up on the beat and I'mma hit em with the
Blam!
You nigga been anointed, seen the void and vindicated, regulated
Ignoring all the temptations
Good Lord I don't see them
Bible said "love your neighbor"
I don't understand the thesis
All I did was keep the faith, ho
All I did was stay the same, bro
All I did was never change though
See it all from my angle

I lay my head before I pray
If rapture strikes it might wait
And what can take the pain away
I'm just preparing for the day
I got my motherfucking dope on the side of me
I keep it low I got one rolled on the side of me
Them niggas know I keep it cold on the side of me
And even though I got no hope left inside of me
I keep it pushing to the death
Death, death
Death, death
Death, death
