Souls in Flamez
Lyrics
In a world where love is rarer than diamonds
And greed shines so bright it blinds men
There lives a boy, to a man he's grown
With nothing more than faith, & pain in his bones
Placed in a maze
He trains his gaze
To avoid snakes
And seek better days
In a life without shame
And days without prayin
Will he ever, find his way
Story of a, young nigga
Born official
Wasn't December 25th but, still he was gifted
In a city where you make a way, there is no privilege
And we ain't posin' for no cameras nigga fuck an image
Pain in our DNA passed down from lineage
Tryna make mountains from the scraps we was given
This is where hard knocks is learned as children
You gone be exposed for everything you was built with
Government corruption the city is filled with
Ride slow, low pro, the windows we tint 'em
9 to 5 come slow, on the side we pitchin
Servin' mary jane to the shit that go in syringes
That'll never be seen as a sin here
If you say it's wrong, cards you was dealt was different
They expect more from the less we was given
That's why the rules we play by come with some exemptions
Heart I once known, now built of stone
You wasn't there for them rides but my history shows
They left us in the cold
With thermal conditions considered
Don't it make sense why we shovlin' snow
Your morals may prevent you from this road
But you learn to stand strong when ya back up on them ropes
When you look life eye to eye stand ten toes
Ain't no where to go, trade blows, can't fold
Will you make it to the 12th round
Or proceed to drown
Sharks feast on you water muffles the sound
Ya bone marrow lookin' sand in a hour glass, time runnin' out
Me on the other hand, 2nd round knock out
Crowd went wild
Took a bow, belt and crown
Fire just gettin warm, imma show 'em hell now
As he walks his path alone
The moon's reflection is the only light shown
With no place to truly call home
He taught himself to build castles from stones
With a heart trained to feel no regret
Ice fills his veins with each and every breath
With desolation on his right, and emptiness to his left
He depends on himself to decide what's best
Who tha fuck is you
To find error in solutions to problems you ain't been through
Niggas got no GPS but swear they know a better route
That's like Eve in the garden taking a bite from the fruit
Then tryna pass it to you
Now will you fall victim to the sweetness in the juice
Imma treat it like Ramadan and skip a meal or two
Can't move with two left feet when the Devil in pursuit
What you gone do when he increase tha flames
Imma barbecue a plate like it's Independence Day
With the napkin tucked in can't let that nigga leave a stain
I'm used to it, Hell's Kitchen fed me a lot of days
I'm amazed I escaped the flames without gettin' grazed
Like damn, God really sending angels this way
On them nights demons could've took my life away
Searchin' for the rightest wrongs serving a bag of cocaine
From these scars I've obtained I shall feel no shame
I wouldn't turn back times with the hands of fate
Look in the mirror and accept the man I see today
That boy manifested gold from the seeds of pain
Had to go in God mode, elevate from being a king
Navigate through the murky waters, I came out clean
Had to put my hustle first and elevate my team
Can't be lackin', can't be slackin' in the way we move or think
Moving with a purpose nigga, boy this ain't no dream
Tried to box me in a room but I found that key
Tried to count a nigga out but I know my 123's
Tried to chain me as a peasant bitch I'm living prestige
Tell them muhfuckas bow now and kiss the ring
Can't afford an umbrella that can stop the king's reign
It's Univers Noir they gone remember the name
When I die tell 'em the world left my soul in flames, bitch
As the ice in his veins turns into flames
He realizes things will never be tha same
With a past tainted, and full of stains
He realizes, some things just can't be changed
As he carried on through the dark
A fire lit, called Univers Noir
A home created, for corrupted hearts
This, is where the journey starts
Welcome
In a world where love is rarer than diamonds
And greed shines so bright it blinds men
There lives a boy, to a man he's grown
With nothing more than faith, & pain in his bones
Placed in a maze

In a life without shame
And days without prayin
