sCReWtApE (LFPK2)

Take it to church
Read up the word
I been going to service so long
It doesn't work
I been thinking these thoughts that so wrong
My conscience burned
I'm feeling scared
Please don't desert me

I keep a million dollar smile but the voices they tell me I'm worthless
I know the walls that be sharing my secrets with demons they lurking
In the darkness, I'm in a dark place
Sorry
Didn't mean to disturb you so late wit my AM calls
Figured I'd leave you a message
Drunken confessions I vomit when stressing
Cuz daily the pressure been keeping me down
I get uneasy when people around me
I keep my mask on so people don't doubt me
But you see bloody fleece
Cardiac on my sleeve
Saltwater ocean sheets, I'm gonna drown
R.I.P.
Before I find peace of consciousness
Consequences could've contemplated them
Not debated them
Snakes persuaded me
Now I burn with them
Communion got me on the fence between saving my spirit and sipping it
I keep redemption on mind but forget it
When I'm out here chasing these Benjamin Franklins
Chasing these cinnamon women friends
Chasing the high of a win again like I play
Wimbledon tennis cuz I been a loser since I can remember
I sense indifference question my existence
America pick and choosing what my sentence is
My people guilty, even though we innocent
Black people hunted, feeling like a menace
Dentist tell me I should smile more
Life's a mission that you gotta finish
Youngin' pay attention handle business or

Take it to church
Read up the word
I been going to service so long
It doesn't work
I been thinking these thoughts that so wrong
My conscience burned
I'm feeling scared
Please don't desert me
