Talitha Cumi
You wanna rap?
The truth I used to know been compromised from very start
This ain't no heart to heart, protect and keep your guard
Before the God goes for hit and makes yo' mind go split
They gonna get you hard, they gonna get you now
The truth I used to know been compromised from very start
This ain't no heart to heart, protect and keep your guard
Before the God goes for hit and makes yo' mind go split
They gonna get you hard, they gonna get you now
Ayy, I know you tired of living in mediocrity
You go and cock the piece, and wanna leave all problems be
The world is ending and everybody just trend it
Life stuck in pending and you just wanna end it
Patience, you spent it, praying with repentance
Never got your message, now you looking for direction
Filling your life up with all these temporary fixes
Grabbed your nearest kicks and burnt your bridges with your vixens
'Cuz none of them were helping, only go you with addiction
Prevented up your growth, the people in your nonfiction
Now your mindset in cocoon, protect yourself, you go aloof
Overthinking, you withdrew
Scared of living, you abused by commute you took
What am I supposed to do if you aren't helping you
There's only so much self pity we can throw around you
Please don't be complacent
Left in days of ancient
You down on the ground but what that gonna do
You better get up with your head up higher
I pray to God these days get brighter
For the peeps around me, without a lighter
Days where I wish the fighting for my rights wasn't
The only constant in my life
But it's aight, keep the mouth shut
And just go love, you're only so young
But don't go dumb
The truth I used to know been compromised from very start
This ain't no heart to heart, protect and keep your guard
Before the God goes for hit and makes yo' mind go split
They gonna get you hard, they gonna get you now
The truth I used to know been compromised from very start
This ain't no heart to heart, protect and keep your guard
Before the God goes for hit and makes yo' mind go split
They gonna get you hard, they gonna get you now
I'm youngblood homie from the DMV
Raised by a Ghanaian dean with Nigerian queen to top it off
Ooh, they taught me love
Ooh, I'm losing love
Ooh, just help me now
'Cuz surroundings I'm currently placed in ain't helping
My clique filled with lames and dames who be yelping 'bout they status
Huh, I'll join 'em too
'Cuz the homies closest give the greatest influence upon
The mind so I'll be the baddest hypocrite
On some sheeple spit to please people quick
Sick of all these wack fronts
From rappers that go with no love and no soul within they flow
Who want quick taste of the dough?
But what's the point if wage temporary though
What's the point if you live quite like a ho
I thought we learned we ain't slaves no mo'
Free my mind oh Lord, oh Lord
Talitha Cumi, arise, arise, arise, arise
Talitha Cumi, arise, arise, uh, arise, arise
Life gonna hit you with some punches
You don't know who to trust in
Just stay strong in your clutches
Blind faith is what I'm up in, yeah
Talitha Cumi, arise, arise, arise, arise
Talitha Cumi, arise, arise, uh, arise, arise
Life gonna hit you with some punches
You don't know who to trust in
Just stay strong in your clutches
Blind faith is what I'm up in, yeah
The truth I used to know been compromised from very start
This ain't no heart to heart, protect and keep your guard
Before the God goes for hit and makes yo' mind go split
They gonna get you hard, they gonna get you now
The truth I used to know been compromised from very start
This ain't no heart to heart, protect and keep your guard
Before the God goes for hit and makes yo' mind go split
They gonna get you hard, they gonna get you now
The truth I used to know been compromised from very start
This ain't no heart to heart, protect and keep your guard
Before the God goes for hit and makes yo' mind go split
They gonna get you hard, they gonna get you now
Now
Look upon my affliction and rescue me
For I have not forgotten your law
Psalms 119:153
The truth I used to know been compromised from very start
This ain't no heart to heart, protect and keep your guard
Before the God goes for hit and makes yo' mind go split
They gonna get you hard, they gonna get you now
The truth I used to know been compromised from very start
This ain't no heart to heart, protect and keep your guard
Before the God goes for hit and makes yo' mind go split
