John Henry

Mama said revenge worst than beef
Richards on business relationships
That's watching the company you
Keep, the little things linger living
More than a memory, the snow
Froze after Christmas Eve
Proven its God in me
Went through middle
School and college she was still
Living, pulling up
Courtney road
Feeling feel different
I was raised down the county
Off that John Henry
See what the rod did me

When I got suspended, they
Threatened explosion
Mama couldn't hold him
Mama told her y'all get here
He's going in the corner
Two weeks in Charles City
Thought my life was over
As I glance at the trees
Still tan colors on leaves
Big Bro didn't want me to
Leave but dad didn't even
Plead, I forged his name
He turned back no love
The same, start to ease
The pain til I realized I
Actually did mom the same
First day Nana brought out
John Henry, mema made him
Go against me, whipping then
I had to clean the kitchen
Watching el dorado teary
Vision, talk back money
No dinner, shut the noise
Up cold killer, great generation
Own the building, their children
Made the boom bigger
Shower handicap chair in it
Pull across door type living
Stripped of my wicked ways
That love stuck and saved the
Day, Nana Mama I love y'all
Family got to do a roll call
Fans who love me thank you
But if you hating I don't know
Y'all, plug smug won't even
hug the streets, scopes on
Business associates that's
Watching the company you
Keep, the little things linger
Living more than a memory
The nog froze after Christmas eve

Proven its God in me
Went through middle
School and college she was
Still living, pulling up courtney
Road feeling feel different
I was raised down the county
Off that John Henry, see what
The rod did me, proven its
God in me, went through middle
School and college she was still
Living, pulling up courtney road
Feeling feel different, I was raised
Down the county off that John
Henry, see what the rod did me

Got a spot for you in my heart
No one shall tear us apart
You the one who made me so
Smart, without the king of kings
I'm no thing, not bragging or
Boasting, my grandparents
Been chosen, no necromancy or
Stockholm, I cried when I got home
Got throned, VA my home east end
Love was shown, ccp on me for
Thinking life outside toblerone
Still I ignore satan there's no
Debating, don't want to call out to
God and be put on call waiting
Wouldn't want to come off as soft
Or holier-than-thou, I'm only speaking
On what he allow, far from the proud
Sixteen summers masterminded took
Me a while, reign now this is my style
Giving the guile, LTGT to infinity and
Beyond that sentence literally, grip
The rap game tighter than muscle shirts
My era for you probably gonna hurt
Out here repping these states you dig
Really from the 804 my nig, dang they
Were twigs catching state cases from
Petty squibs, Mama read four books a
Week, three Harry Potters in two days
She helped me earn four A's, the little
Things linger living more than a turned
Page, the snow froze after Christmas Day

Proven its God in me, went through
Middle school and college she was
Still living, pulling up courtney road
Feeling feel different, I was raised down
The county off that
John Henry, see what
The rod did me, proven its God in me
Went through middle school and college
She was still living, pulling up courtney road
Feeling feel different, I was raised down the
County off that John Henry
