[Verse 1: Christon Gray] I wonder how it felt to be that inn keeper To send Messiah to the stables where the pigs eating I wonder if I ever get my choir robes My face is so disfigured I've been drinking from the fire hose Pa**ing by the old church reminiscing, driving slow The king made the shepherd fight Goliath in some giant clothes The armor I was wearing wasn't fit for the description A pious type of poverty, but wasn't quite conviction So this is for that young man standing in the pulpit He made the people dance while he feeling like the culprit But keep him in the furnace though, he gon get his wings soon Keep him out of legalism, look he gon need a drink soon Please don't make his parole life a measurement of timers and tears Like that's evidence or base it on what effort is You can miss the greatest things with zeal in the way Or you can find the greatest things by stealing away [Hook: Taelor Gray] You say you saw me die but I was on my way up You say you saw me rise but I was on my way down [Verse 2: Christon Gray] Going down, down baby your street in the mercury 99 cougar, cherry wine mixed with burgundy Another on the nail she acting like she never heard of me I remember Michelle her love letters were perjury But then she got jealous of the girl from the nursery Maria, yeah she burned my heart to the third degree She was like only two streets over from Brandi, that was burglary Cause I got her number from Sterling see Went to set the two of them up, but I rehearsed the scene I knew with just the right line she would flirt with me Please pay me no mind I'm only journaling These paintings are fine art preserve 'em please I'm currently healing from heart surgery I was way too young but marriage was emergency The queen of Jacob I love her but couldn't lord her Thought I might afford her to change currency My ex's changed while I stayed the same I've played the game but it brought out the worst in me Excuse me I don't do everything perfectly Difference is I do it for the world to see [Hook: Taelor Gray] You say you saw me die but I was on my way up You say you saw me rise but I was on my way down
