Sermon

Sometimes I wonder if my perspective is relatable
Cuz who could understand words from a kid who barely made it through
A small Italian village, till the age of nine
Hadn't even grown a hair on my nuts by that time
I can only rhyme, to relate you the horrors I seen and watched
Saw my own daddy get dragged away by cops
All just because my mammas head he was trying to crop, from the rest of her body
Left her beaten and bloodied
Five years old, calling out for somebody
Now my traumas embodied
Calling out like, "somebody help" no one ever comes
Keeping my sights on what is
Instead of what ain't
I paint my sky like cathedral
Lead the masses like saint
I'm in my head, I'm withdrawing
I swear to god I'm a bank
Catching my breath, I can't faint
Energy I taint, when I paint with these
They brainwashed me, brought me to my knees
On the road to my dreams
They took my car and they seized And repossessed
Claiming by demons I'd be possessed
Shit I ain't did but confessed
Now I've become obsessed
And paranoid
They was up my ass like some hemmeroids
Now just a moment in time
Like a Polaroid
I'm transitioning to the screen like a celluloid
I'm not like you
Part human, part machine
So call me Android
Shit's all different now
Flowing like wind, Blowing trees with a breeze
Speak from the heart on this mic
Hoping the truth set me free
I recognize greatness in me
When the waters of my mind settle with stillness
I see, that's Why I periodically
Sit and meditate, I gather my thoughts
I watch, myself like an image
Putting mirror up to god
I am a paradox, I'm Jehovah
And Lucifer kicking on old sofa
I pull the thread
Let it unravel
Pull the pin let it blow up
Only instead of destruction
And death, I plant a garden instead
If y'all gon bug I exterminate
Now I'm Making this bread
From wheat I sprout
Like I germinate
When I spit like regurgitate, contemplating
Calculated death like a murder rate
Cuz it's a matter of time before these words detonate
Y'all just witnessed my sermon
I leave this with y'all
Mix it in with'cha blood let it circulate dawg

I was hiding in plain sight
This whole time
So keep watching
Don't close your eyes
Suns coming up on me
This is my sunrise
I'm headed straight to the top
It's a matter of time

I was hiding in plain sight this whole time
So keep watching don't close your eyes
Suns coming up on me this is my sunrise
I'm headed straight to the top it's a matter of time
