ALRIGHT

This reminds me of a church song
And I ain't been to church in so long
Feel kind of lost if I was honest with you
I lost my way back, way back when
And now I'm steady tryna find it again
That's why my pad and my pen are ready
I'm feeling heavy with that excess
I pray to God so I can stress less
I reminisce on em times we used to sing
At em firesides
And now we're bringing people together
With every line and rhyme, it's sublime
Man it's crazy it don't make sense
I'm making dollars used to make cents
Although I tend to forget the tender mercies
He's bestowed upon me
I'll never regret the lessons
That have grown upon me - Love

I know I gotta put in work on me, work on me
Long as I try You'll make a way for me, way
And if You love me
Then I'll be okay
And if You love me
Then I'll be alright

My mind feels shackled by so many burdens
But this I know for certain
At times life can have you lost
Like a kid at a Sunday sermon
Always learning, what it means to be free
And always searching my soul
For confidence to be me
Unapologetically unashamed
Like Eli Manning got my Giants on my back
I'm tryna live up to my name
Circle small and only getting smaller
I'm on my Drake grind cause Fake Love
Is easy to recognise as you get older
When I'm alone and fighting demons within
Still feel Creator's love upon me though I'm living in sin
Illuminate my path, and be my light in the dark
I pray I heed your word despite the world
Like Noah and his ark
Wash my sins away
I pray for patience and faith
To endure cause even the stormiest skies will give way
Eventually seeking every blessing meant for me
And each moment I'll savour till a Uso meets his Maker, word

I know I gotta put in work on me, work on me
Long as I try You'll make a way for me, way
And if You love me
Then I'll be okay
And if You love me
Then I'll be alright

Pac told me keep my head
50 told me get my bread up
Nipsey sold me on them 3 letters
Never Let Up
Be better
Than you were yesterday
Was told if I ever needed answers
That it was best to pray
So I closed my eyes, fold my arms
Across my chest and say
What was on my mind and my heart
To relieve my stress and pain
Tears rolled down my face like a window on a rainy day
For all the times I wish I had a Smith & Western saying
I don't wanna be here no more
Said I don't wanna have fear
No flaws, been feeling tired, uninspired, not sure
What my calling be
Swear I can hear the devil calling me
Tryin a little, harder to be a little better
On some Gordon B
I can still see the light
Even though I know I know
It's been so long
Even though I may lose sight
I know I'll be alright

I know I gotta put in work on me, work on me
Long as I try You'll make a way for me, way
And if You love me
Then I'll be okay
And if You love me
Then I'll be alright
