GODLIKE

You
Feel that could be you (you, you, you)
How does it feel? That could be you (you, you, you)
How does it feel? What would you do? (You, you, you)

What's a king to a God (yeah)? I'm like
What's a king to a God? I'm like (yeah)
What's a king to a
Godlike
Don't get it twisted I still got it, it's just
These days, it takes a lot to bring it out of me
Godlike (yeah)

Got to the crib and I just connected the Scarlett, back to recordin'
Gotta be consistent when you give 'em this kind of performance
Godlike, the song bleeds, the tongue is a sword
Back to makin' music that the Grammys no longer reward, Godlike
Sparkin' minds with the rhymes I used to write in the dark
Describin' all those nights, we had to pray for a better tomorrow
Acceptin' the fact you gotta continue to starve
It's hard to work with what you got when you don't have nothin' at all
It's me against the world and a legion of demons
That grew wings inside my head 'cause I kept 'em a secret

That's when the glow inside my spirit just slowly depleted
I had to face 'em, so I'm on my knees facin' east to slowly redeem it
The heart tells the mind to use love to defeat the evils
In this game I got the crown, I'm on the throne seated
But back home, I'm uncle Reece to all of my nieces, tryna be there when I'm needed
'Long as I'm here, and I'm breathin', I gotta change with the seasons
My time isn't yet a luxury, it hurts me to tell you l'm leavin'
Just know I do this 'cause you're part of the reason
When God made me, he created a leader
Been a legend since the days of a fetus

Remember when they took my silence for weakness
But go silent when I finally achieve it, fuck 'em
And fuck the world 'cause I ain't savin' it either
Somebody tell me, what's the price of my freedom? Another life, I guess
I'm in Zambia, findin' it hard to rest, far from home, feel like I ain't even left
On the dusty streets of LSK, I went from happiness to being stressed
I could see the mansions with the views, the city life and all
Until we drove, further down the road, I started seeing less
More of what I saw next were 12-year-olds with their mothers under the blazin' sun
Covered in black residue, sellin' coal, still barely able to provide for a broken home

Wondering how they cope, saw police stations, no hospitals close
No schools but to the church though, all of them go
But it's never easy restorin' that hope
Heaven or Hell, guess we're livin' in both
But it's like the meek just keep burnin' the most
And I'm just blessed to be on my way to another show
Turning my thoughts into memorable quotes
Before I leave a corpse and turn into a ghost
Satisfied that I played a pivotal role
Known for touchin' a soul whenever he spoke

Although he spoke in code whenever he wrote, Godlike
And if they paint me as the villain, I'm chilled
'Cause like the devil, how the fuck they s'posed to stop me, if they think I ain't real? (Yeah)
(Just like the devil, how the fuck they s'posed to stop me, if they think I ain't real?)

Feel that could be you
How does it feel? That could be you
How does it feel? What would you do? (You, you, you)
(You, you, you)
(You, you, you)

Don't get it twisted I still got it, it's just
These days it takes a lot to bring it out of me
