In Perpetuity
Let the camera focus. This is my magnum opus
Full of tragic moments that I had to cope with
God laughs at your plans if you haven't noticed
As I stand there broken, I hope he grants atonement
Hussle & Motivate, make sure my folks are straight
You know I pray for repentance to cleanse this soul of pain
And I just hope that I get it before they close the gates
It feels so poetic the way my shoulder blades
Hold the weight of the world like I'm Atlas
I don't give a fuck about this rap shit
I finally found the love that I was lackin'
It's so wonderful, it's magic. It's like nothin' I imagined
God sent me a beautiful angel
My horns shone through but they grew to a halo
I observe life from unusual angles
Search for the light with a bird's eye view of the rainbow
I saw the light shine through
I used it to light my fuse
I knew my lifeline grew
I'm here to provide my truth
I saw the light shine through the cracks
I had to fight just to adapt
I learned to fly just to prove I can
'Cause you might just lose your chance
I'm blessed just to take a breath
I ain't on a quest to attain success
This is just how I vent, not pay the rent
I ain't out for fame or friends or tryna chase a check
I'm under stress, pressed just to make amends
I'm tryin' to gain respect. Fuck your Mercedes-Benz
They payin' cents for streams. It don't make sense to me
We invest in dreams, it isn't worth it usually
We're from hurt communities. There's no herd immunity
We just wanna be heard, we deserve impunity
There's few degrees 'cause the urge is truancy
Chasin' foolish dreams but we're learnin' to believe
Been cursed since birth, but I word it fluently
Put my worth in my work as the curtains drew on me
Pray to God all along as I search for unity
Right or wrong, I'll live on in perpetuity
I saw the light shine through
I used it to light my fuse
I knew my lifeline grew
I'm here to provide my truth
I saw the light shine through the cracks
I had to fight just to adapt
I learned to fly just to prove I can
'Cause you might just lose your chance
And when I'm gone, play this song as the perfect eulogy
Right or wrong, I'll live on in perpetuity
Pray to God all along as I search for unity
Right or wrong, I'll live on in perpetuity
Full of tragic moments that I had to cope with
God laughs at your plans if you haven't noticed
As I stand there broken, I hope he grants atonement
Hussle & Motivate, make sure my folks are straight
You know I pray for repentance to cleanse this soul of pain
And I just hope that I get it before they close the gates
It feels so poetic the way my shoulder blades
Hold the weight of the world like I'm Atlas
I don't give a fuck about this rap shit
I finally found the love that I was lackin'
It's so wonderful, it's magic. It's like nothin' I imagined
God sent me a beautiful angel

I saw the light shine through the cracks
