Psalm I

Word to the wise
Don't speak what you don't understand
Cause you might just embarrass yourself
You ain't gon help
Then please don't come round me
My enemies just another footstep
15 years I been chasing a dream
Think it's time I enjoy what's left
And I don't know but I've been told
Life's better when you love yourself

The church telling me to go back to the gospel
But I never left it behind
Need I remind
They the ones who discouraged the kid
They didn't notice they were dulling the shine
Now all my rhyme schemes gleam with the hopes of the future
Every flow pay respect to the legends of past
I passed, every challenge God sent my way
Now I'm planning on making it last
Who would've thought I'd come this far
Beyond a rap star
A black hole sent to swallow the flame
How the same ones used to throw dirt on my name
Be the same ones begging for change
Now I paid tithes
Never switched sides
Did what was needed, set aside my pride
Finally accepted I was born to lead my pack
What other wolf you heard howl like that

Word to the wise
Don't speak what you don't understand
Cause you might just embarrass yourself
You ain't gon help
Then please don't come round me
My enemies just another footstep
15 years I been chasing a dream
Think it's time I enjoy what's left
And I don't know but I've been told
Life's better when you love yourself

Minimal blunders, spiritual hunters
Biblical fallacies, cause em to wonder
Cold winters and temperate summers
That's a sign that the goats are bringing the thunder
Foot in the door
Like I work at nickelodeon
Things change, they been taking in the copium
I rise and I thrive in pandemonium
Graciously accepting my position on the podium
Carve me in to the rap Mount Rushmore
They telling me I'll pop if I cuss more
Saying skip the love I should lust more
It's me, myself, and I, cause I
Built 1033 without the LLC
Now I'm trynna turn it into ABC
Kid with a dream from the bourgeoisie
Ain't nobody gonna outwork me

Word to the wise
Don't speak what you don't understand
Cause you might just embarrass yourself
You ain't gon help
Then please don't come round me
My enemies just another footstep
15 years I been chasing a dream
Think it's time I enjoy what's left
And I don't know but I've been told
Life's better when you love yourself
