Hit-Boy - God Bless lyrics

[Verse 1] Let the smoke raise higher Arson it's fire That's what they do to a n***a once they encounter your priors Real n***as speak the b**h at heart gone creep Ambitions of playin hov but ya situation is bleak My momma said f** n***as go get ya money son My heart said f** Hurtin you ain't the only one My mind right every situation I took I remember thinkin in secret I grew to be overlooked But f** n***a I'm doing things I never thought I get to Prayers turned contradictions when arms length of pistols I mean nothin certain but d**h to ya I stress to ya n***as movin weight only do it to keep the faith Oh lord bless em all who judge me for being different I know that they wanna love it won't speak it but know they listen Keep in mind if you speaking it's reasons that I don't listen Those reasons turn into seasons they grieving you came up missin [Hook] I know wish the worst for a n***a God Bless Till the day they send a hurst for a n***a God bless Everybody doin dirt for a n***a God Bless Nothin free you know I work for it n***a [Verse 2] One day they hate you Next day they praise you Stopped givin them f**s Up Went and made moves n***a luck what Now a days they think you playin when you talkin to em But later on they gone be payin just to walk into em Tree blownin boot Wearin prestige knowin Type n***a that'll big up to seein his n***as glitter A house for all his people Accountants could keep em equal It's nothin to make a profit Know n***as in case I drop it I'm a hustler by choice Known voice by fate Humble n***a by words otherwise trill n***a by ways Street raised my feet Chins raised my hands Pops shook my moms stayed That lady raised this man For that I'mma give her everything Without a hesi Be through with the residentials Unless you attaching presi Often I'm thinkin back Some mistakes that I made were deadly A n***a still alive for that reason forever ride Desired to be a king Aspired to be greater No sense to settle for less when you know you ain't promised later Speaking in third person When tunnel vision ain't workin I see it from different angles until they closin the curtains
