Matt Muse - Promis'd Land lyrics

[Produced by BmfnTaylor] [Hook: Sydney Jay] I don't know where y'all tryina' go But I'm tryina get to my promised land Pack your bags it's time to go Cause we gotta get to our promised land My promised, my promised, my promised My promised land My promised, my promised, my promised My promised land I don't know where y'all tryina' go But I'm tryina get to my promised land [Verse: Matt Muse] Young king from the south side Where all them black boys & girls cried Hustlers pushin' for that new ride I know y'all already know about the great Chicago Still I wrote a song about it Like to hear it? Here it go Use to take the CTA down to Morgan Park Always sat in the back, forgive me Rosa Parks Them n***as spat Kanye in each and every hallway Had the cla** been on the dropout I'da had straight A's 9/11/07 Graduation was a blessing This was 8 yrs before, but Ye was playin all day n***a All day n***as brains go insane Cause this life ain't nothin' like the one that T-Pain sang Robbed on ya' own block Shots at the bus stop Even kids gettin' hit Dog, that's where the buck stops When them jackers want cha' green Dog that's where ya luck stops Hardest thing I ever seen was my parents tears drop When my granny's heart stopped That's was when I vowed to make a change Pack my bags, hit the road, & conquer everything Momma said "if you don't make it back by night fall" Just promise me you'll pick up when me & pops call" I got you [Hook: Sydney Jay] I don't know where y'all tryina' go But I'm tryina' get to my promised land I don't know where y'all tryina' go But I'm tryina' get to my promised land [Verse 2: Matt Muse] Hot & fresh like the devil bathing in a kettle Watch ya feet, don't step on my new bezel While I'm wiping off the kicks & once that dust settles You'll see so much bread You'd swear my name was Hansel Gretel But it's still Matt Muse, still k**in' you fools Got no time for interviews, busy shining my j**els So much a** on Ash Damn near gave her the cash The dame tried to rock-a-fella So I had to dash I spaz, you last, I last Got two Franklin's on the dash Mink on the air bags So you comfy when we crash Plottin Pinky & The Brain On that new pinky rang That was when my phone rang & I woke up from that dream To Charmaine [Outro: Matt Muse] She said "son I don't mean to preach ya But It's something on my heart So I had to reach ya We all want the name, fame and a little change But once you caught up in them chains You can't make a change You make me proud baby boy, gone, do ya thang & don't get caught in them chains, just make a change & make the city proud, when ya do ya thang & no matter where you go Remember from where you came" I got you
