Genesis Renji - Afternoon Song lyrics

[Verse 1: Genesis Renji] Somewhere between homicidal and suicidal Razor in my hand They say don't jump With ya eyes closed You won't see everything that you pa** They say we living too fast But really We just dying slow Too close to the edge f** it I'll take off I pray this noose around my neck soon break off I pray these shackles 'round my leg soon shake off I quit these jobs So I can never be laid off I sold my soul to myself My debts are paid off Built a House from a pyramid b**h, I'm Maddoff I'm making sure I can make off With all this cash I made off Rap sales of past tales of a young black male It's unfortunate All these portions I'm posed to get Prolly go back to the government on some bogus sh** On some "We taxing you for what you owning sh** And we gon write it up acting like you still owe us" sh** I understand it My perception uncanny I see the good and the evil I peeped the angels and demons I appreciate the purpose of the spirits that's working Wrote a thesis bout being deceased And now I'm more than certain that I'm Gon' be pa**ing by my own hand Cuz I Wasn't born in my own land but I'm -lyrics fade off- [Hook: Genesis Renji] Pray for peace of mind For the times I Spent all of my time in the limelight Pray these Angels watching all my blindsides I don't ever wanna be sidelined No No way that I won't (won't) Won't make it to where I'm going I'm going, I'm going [Verse 2: Genesis Renji] They keep you fearing God Just to keep you from hearing God Here's the tricky part Is there even really a God? I mean I know there is These are questions from older kids I'm just the boldest kid Who f**ed around and wrote the sh** I only wrote the sh** cuz I f**ed around and noticed it I only noticed it Cuz I'm naturally the nosiest I got a need for knowing sh** And then when I know the sh** I got a need for showing it And then owning it This God complex Is found in my rhyme sets They told me pray to they God I told them I'm set Keep yo opinions to yoself My religion was believing That I could be something else Arm Leg Leg Arm Head Know what that be Life number seven Immortality's around me 7 streams 7 breathes And 7 generations Gotta live a life worthy of those who survived plantations Shoutout to Dolo, Anika Shoutout to Darius Hope this existence I'm living ain't too embarra**ing Life can be perilous Doesn't mean I don't cherish it The ego's necessary Help me work on arrogance Pride comes before fall I feel like I been floating In between the mountain tops and all the low lands And if I never rise Bury me in a river of gold then Gla** casket with a rose tint I'm open I'm [Hook: Genesis Renji] Pray for peace of mind For the times I Spent all of my time in the limelight Pray these Angels watching all my blindsides I don't ever wanna be sidelined No No way that I won't (won't) Won't make it to where I'm going I'm going, I'm going
