Hannibal King - Raw From the Soul lyrics

[Verse 1] Now feel the pain of a young n***a Live from the tombs of my soul Flow grave digger Lung cancer took my father figure Ironic, cause I smoke So I don't remember that day f** the chill of a cold world Chemo too expensive, had to sit and watch his life curl And what you know about that A permanent tint, so my mind all black My heart too, after what I've been through Couldn't walk a mile or an inch in his shoe Couldn't tie a tie until he showed me how to So how I'm supposed to grow as a man without you [Hook] You always said I'd be a great man I keep that in mind when I plant hope Inside the holes in my soul Cause every diamond started with some coal And this is raw, from the soul And this is raw, from the soul And this is raw, from the soul And this is raw, from the soul [Verse 2] Every morning that I wake up Blessed from my rest I put an L in my chest While I dress, exhale next with finesse I told moms, that's how I deal with my stress And lately I've been stressin' Is God still real I'm in need of some blessin' Sometimes lookin' at the sky for direction When I'm still lost It leave me second guessin' Is anyone hearin' this Not just me, but the souls of the spirited Mirror it, that picture of society Preacher lookin' at my paper like it's his property But this soul don't need savin' If that means I gotta give you weekly payments Frame it, that picture of the church Still talkin' to God I hope this time it works [Hook]
