Josiah Davis - Formerly Known (feat. Nicaragua & Rusty Red) lyrics

Hey, yeah! Hey, Zach, Rickie! I think this is the anthem track right here! Hey, hey, yeah! [Verse 1: Josiah Davis] I think you've heard the name before: Josiah Davis Finally hit The Stu with Andrew Thank God we left the basement Spending so much time tryna figure out where my place is I hate dark spaces, but there's no way I'm a racist God tracin' Every line I have on my hands, and I'm in his But I'm racin' To make it in music, that ain't a fib So I hit up my dogs for a**istance Michael Vick And we came up with a track, a little somethin' to stick In the kitchen cookin' tracks for a minute I'm with it, flip it like a pancake Sizzle each time I spit it I'm spinnin' like the yo-yo in my hand I hit it like an axe to a tree, no Lumberjack Yo, I'm formerly known I left the name behind cause, well as you know, I'm not grown I'm feelin ga**ed, mic pa**in', on legendary status I'm defying the status quo Not trying to practice, bro I'm packin' heat, don't rap at me This my job, no habit, yo Formerly known as a sinner But Satan got dunked on, and now I'm a winner I'm eatin' a lot, but I couldn't feel thinner Cause Jesus took the weight off my shoulders Thank God for the healer That's irony [Verse 2: Nicaragua] Formerly known Just a crusader of rap Like Joan of Arc Hop on the track: me, Josiah, and Zach Step to the mic and I numb it down with some morphine Went through some changes Yeah, you could say I was morphing Find me snatchin' pillows When I catch these brothers snoring Soaring, exploring the air like I'm a Boeing Rapper on the beat Basquiat with a paint brush I go hammer on the flow, I'm that MC you can't touch Rappin' with Josiah, man you know I feel elated On this mixtape yellin' “Hey, mom, I think we made it” I been happy rapping since day one, like no belated I was chillin' in the breeze, but now I've heavily deflated My ego I was bad and I was boujee like the Migos Now I'm good and I been chillin' just me and my cool amigos Freed my mind like Neo Eatin' right like Mio I was lost but I'mma keep on swimmin' like I was Nemo Every day is such a gift, such a present Every second chance I get is like the new version of Blessings I been lettin' my light shine, I'm luminescent, hey Catch me in my residence prayin' that God deflects this hate [Verse 3: Rusty Red] Big Z-Money, that was the name But Rusty Red, that's my claim to fame Yeah, I'm just tryna stay in the game Some may say that's a shame But they don't know what's goin' on in my brain Rappin's never been the reason that I exclaim Even though I spit flame And I'm on this mixtape The reason that I shout these praises Is 'cause Jesus and me are on a first-name basis This man gave me a sword By his grace I am floored In his eyes I'm adored Breaking' Satan's lock Kickin' down doors Knockin' other rappers to the floor And all I did was spit a couple bars and whip in a Ford Zach Attack Was a pretty great name But it started sounding whack It was time for a change So I kicked him off the track It's Rusty Red in the flesh And I'm rockin mic's from Impact to Bangladesh Warren seems whack without this ginger kid in it Blue Devils but we Godly, so the name gon' be switchin' Big ups to the man above my head in the sky ‘Cause when I k** this beat, I know it has a place when it dies Cut the beat
