Redemption

(Verse 1)
Lookin for redemption for a long time.
Started music at the age of six that's a long grind.
Long time folks saying I won't shine.
Cerebral line spittin's gettin me lost in my own mind.
The wrong rhyme will have me on a street driving with no signs
Of life anywhere I mean none of no kind.
Visions getting hazy, starting to go blind.
Worst fear of all that my destiny I won't find.
I'm gone try but...

(Pre Chorus 1)
I'm so confused.
Don't know where I'm going.
I can't get through.
Fears and doubts are flowing.

(Chorus)
I've been traveling on this road
No money no food no place to go
Tired of these obstacles in my way
And if I get there still don't got no place to stay

So I wanna fly away
So high today
And I wanna fly away

(Verse 2)
Questing for redemption. Yes I'm on a mission.
Haters naysayers can't stop a playa pay attention.
To the dope boys, stop before they raid your kitchen.
Stop your wasteful spending use them stacks to pay tuition.
To my fellow artists stop writing fake descriptions.
You ain't gangsta living. And to the gangstas chillin...
I'ma come and raid ya village, save the children.
I don't want beef I'm just trying to make a difference.

(Pre Chorus 2)
And you can too.
This is the hour.
You have the tools.
You have the power.

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
Do you need redemption?
Cause I think I found it.
Through obstacles I didn't know that I could move a mountain.
I heard the old folks in church sing there is a fountain.
And since that day my feet have been solid steady grounded.
Come what may my faith won't fade it's what keeps me well rounded.
And I may miss a shot but through his grace I'm gone rebound it.
Lord I'm gone give you the glory music's gone resound it.
I'ma send your holy message out to the confounded.

(Pre Chorus 3)
Now... I'll follow you.
I... I need your guidance.
You... You are the truth.
I... I won't keep silent.

(Chorus)
