Sonny Liston

(Who- who have I been trying to be?)
Pray on my knees to the Lord don't let me be Sonny Liston
(Oh who have I been trying to be?)
(Don't nothing scare me more than that Ali packed Sonny Liston)

Bench pressing my chest so what gets said they gon' know that I meant it
I scraped for every dollar sure savored every penny
Boiled weenie water went back to school at the JC Penny
Rounds get rung boys gon' break faster than Denny's (Huh)
Ears getting rung young boy must had trouble hearing
He was Michael Jackson bad at war with that man in the mirror
Put a thousand in my family function before I wear Amiri
My left eye closed to aim it 'fore I show tender love and caring
The eyes never lie my mind say don't go for the staring (huh)
Tear this whole shit down behind what my Mom think is manners (Huh)
White boy wasted I cope the same as the Tanner's
Eye for an eye can fuck up your life as a standard
She do me bad I'll let it slide knowing this our last dinner
Jesus watched them build the cross never not once asked for forgiveness
I'll erase you out my life 'fore I let you mark up the business huh
(Who who have I been trying to be?)
Had to change my life can't do double cups of the Grimace (Huh)
Eating pills every night then waking up some like a gremlin
Sitting in the church fried thinking it's fine 'cause I got chicken
Thinking I can fuck the bill up and still have them pots pissed in

Don't nothing scare me more than that Ali packed Sonny Liston
The man of the hour go out a clown in the pictures (Swear)
Nothing scare me more than that Ali packed Sonny Liston
(You can go ahead reel me in)
Pray on my knees to the Lord don't let me be Sonny Liston
(I don't know who- who I was trying to be)
(I don't know who- I was trying to be)
