The Shepherd
The good seed fell on good soil
Work the ground
How much more will I toil?
The path is unavoidable
Get some rest, boy, I need a breather
And even though it's pouring outside
The sun shines on the good and evil
As a kid, I grew amongst the weeds
Never had all that I need
But what I got was free
To anyone who wants to buy it cheaper
I just tell them follow the leader
The greatest in the kingdom is the servant
The servant can't surpass the master
Somebody tell the pastor
I'm not trying to get past them
I'm just trying to outlast them
Some, they try to outclass them
But they fail to teach ya
Yet, their lies are so see-through
I'm just here, tryna reach ya
Before it gets deeper
And the way back becomes steeper
No one can serve two masters
That path will lead to disaster
I'm not gonna let them be captured
No, I'm not gonna hold ya, nor trap ya
And I'm not gonna wait to be raptured
All the sheep find green pasture
When they're led by the shepherd
Everyone is looked after
Just make sure you're in step with
The sequence and method
Cause if the blind lead you
You're a dead man
They just set it up like we're separate
I'd say it's been effective
But that depends on how you measure it
Everything is relative
But nothing lasts forever
I had life before my birth
I took on this endeavor
I remember it clearly
And I wasn't tryna be clever
I know it's really now or never
So, we can't let up
No, not even to the letter
If I do it good, there's always better
The good seed fell on good soil
Work the ground
How much more will I toil?
The path is unavoidable
Get some rest, boy, I need a breather
And even though it's pouring outside
The sun shines on the good and evil
As a kid, I grew amongst the weeds
Never had all that I need
But what I got was free
To anyone who wants to buy it cheaper
I just tell them follow the leader
Work the ground
How much more will I toil?
The path is unavoidable
Get some rest, boy, I need a breather
And even though it's pouring outside
The sun shines on the good and evil
As a kid, I grew amongst the weeds
Never had all that I need
But what I got was free
To anyone who wants to buy it cheaper
I just tell them follow the leader
The greatest in the kingdom is the servant
The servant can't surpass the master
Somebody tell the pastor
