Song

(album: Valley Of The KXNGS - 2016)

If you had the chance to change your whole life with one song... what would that song sound like?

Is music truly my calling? 'Cause my community's shocking
Poverty got us starving, that's why them toolies be cocking
Failures in hot pursuit of me crime is soon to be dropping
No loot to drop in the pocket no opportunity knocking
See myself living a better life, let my mind travel through heaven escaping this hell
I tell myself, "boy you better write!"
'Cause every lyric is a key to the cell, help me escape from this jail
The whole world need to know who flow the meanest
You won't compete with these Mona Lisa's these masterpieces
You must be smoking baking soda mixed with coke or [?]
This is a stroke of genius with the broken english like a pencil in the hand of God
Given all the prophets that wrote for Jesus to inspire some hope
Except I had no believers, I had to believe in myself
Now I'm sitting all alone in the zone writing trying to change my life with a song

If this was the last song, I ever wrote, the last song I ever sang
I hope my words that go through the ages
So when they blow the dust off these pages, They know I'm a king, they know I'm a teacher, they know I'm a prophet they know I'm a leader
I'm the soldier you can lean on
Try to change my life with one song, one song
I'm just tryna change my life with one song
Trying to change my life

People say I would die a dope dealer
Until I picked up a pen and become a hope dealer
I'm being sincere, just writing shit my younger self needed to hear
To make songs realer with no fillers
When it's dark and I'm feeling disgruntled
I'm hoping what I write is the light at the end of the tunnel
Turning tragic into something magic as if I'm rubbing a Latin's lap with my lyrics wishing for the end of my struggles
When will I be who I'm supposed to be?
I could give you an estimate but I'm only writing part of this song, God writes the rest of it
I guess that's why the flow is heaven sent, and I know life's lessons are meant to test, say that backwards now that's testament
When will I be who I'm supposed to be
Tears gon' drop sometimes, now that's definite
I never question it I'm just focusing on my Exodus
So next time you come to the slums, knock on my door
And if I ain't at home, I changed my life with a song

If this was the last song, I ever wrote, the last song I ever sang
I hope my words that go through the ages
So when they blow the dust off these pages, They know I'm a king, they know I'm a teacher, they know I'm a prophet they know I'm a leader
I'm the soldier you can lean on
Try to change my life with one song, one song
I'm just tryna change my life with one song
Trying to change my life
