PRICE OF A SOUL
Lyrics
Yeah, Trusted flowers from the darkest of rooms
They just borrowed me some love with the hopes that I bloom
They told me take what you deserve, I took more than I need
Don't be scared of anybody, everybody can bleed
My life of crime was a course, I couldn't choose what I'm worth
I had to struggle from birth, I seen a hell on this Earth
But I believe in your shit, got high faith in your shit
When your shit go legit, Kendrick would fuck with yo shit
I always picture your blessings, don't forget all the lessons
This shit is deeper than fame, this shit a family ticket
I'm still deep in my game, the reaper calling my ticket
I went through hell for my heaven, got more sins than a reverend
A role model for killers, the holy grail for a sinner
Idolized by the scammers, this a dream I was sold
The finest women in the world only fuck with a winner
I shook hands with the devil, I won't live to be old
When my story is told, that's the price of soul
I sold drugs to our brothers that disappointed their mothers
I did what I did just to live how I live
I wasn't forced by greed, I had to feed my own seed
In the jaws of the beast, I'm not looking for peace
Put my knees on the floor pray I never die poor
I know a hitman that calculate the value of life
The same with thing working girls selling love for a price
I'm holding on to butterfly with the hopes that I fly
Nobody has faith in projects, especially niggas from the projects
Who conjure nonsense, but I'm no prophet
Visions of having a doctorate faded as soon as I stepped out of the doctrine
Into a different process, a part of me feared being jobless
But I worked on myself, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree
Well I'm the book that fell far from the shelf, I can't recall myself asking for help
The chest was made for breathing, somehow I use mine to collect
Better yet harbor every bit of resentment, with intentions of being karma herself
I never sold myself short of anything that I felt, if the revelations of every layer a man can possess
Offend you, then we should go ahead and part ways
Cause really ain't no telling which part of me triggers you to reflect
My shadow side is my shadow side, and I battled mine before we got to reconcile
I keep in mind that peace of mind is all that you get
Assuming that it's worth more than the diamond hanging over your neck
Swallow your pride and the truth is what you'll get to digest
Now can you stomach that, been for, been against me
Somedays intuition doesn't feel intact
That's not a bar, that's the key to a treasure chest
And only you can manifest or measure best
Recommend you never live reckless, but who am I to interject
When I'm a rookie biting flesh, and dying from this acid
Poison in my cells, please wish me well
Cause I'm just like you, as much as I don't want to be
The guy who sees the truth behind the vines, sitting awkwardly
It's awfully a lot, don't you lose the plot
It seems like you forgot, the deeds I do for God
Or better yet myself, cause really I'm an open book I wish I could've read
And like a broken arm that topic I wouldn't touch
Overdream Audio
I sold drugs to our brothers that disappointed their mothers
Well, first time I fell in love, it was with a lil girl called marijuana
I loved her, she loved me, I grew older
Met a lit shawty called coca leaf, coca leaf was different
Drove me crazy, I'd feel things
Every time I was around her I'd feel things
I ain't gone life to you, every time I was wit ha, I lost a piece of me
I kept going, I kept goin, before I even knew I lost everything to cocaine
I had to settle for less, I had less, yeah
I take whatever they give me now, whatever I can
Just to get right you know?
to feel some, lil fire in my back, you know
Crack cocaine, you know what I mean?
Can't go back to marijuana, she different now
She herb and what not
