lyrics

Sign of the times
It’s perfect timing
For me
I been on time
Despite no watch
For me
I stay in tune
On one accord
Wit me
God and myself
Sorry the grammar’s faulty

Took a couple pages
From my last story
No editing
Proofread it
Give God his glory

Sinners prayer
I been born again
Despite living in sin
Seeing my sins again
Only difference that rear view
Is stunning
Stone Cold
As the young bull
Broken skulls
In the squared rope
My tear ducks
Dried up
I’m raisin
My sons
To be the one
Not two
Or me too
Look
They are my legacy
Keep it going on
Break any curses
I’m still holding on
Work in progress
On my worse day
My best days
I’m getting better
By the day
Everything’s personal
Tryna clear these grudges
Fighting for freedom
While it’s on a budget
My two cents
Bought me common sense
But not tunnel vision
Or the price
Of being forgiven
Or forgiving those
Who blurred my vision

But I keep going
Light zoning
My likes on it
The weeds potent
Feel my demise
Searching for imperfection
Cause I’m perfect
In your eyes
No

So here we are
Retrospective
My confessions
On par
Upbringings as a church boy
Temptations on my mind
I’m tempted to lose
My mind
This grief on a platter
My depression got
The hunger
For more
Adding this chatter
Of pity
And full despair
And yes I took it there
Yet through it all
Persistence
Through commitment
We move forward
Dawg that’s a given
Let’s go
