L-FRESH The LION - Faithful lyrics

Verse 1:L-FRESH The LION The history's the future, it repeats like the barrell of a gun Here it comes full circle to hurt you, I never run Some stare at the sun trying to absorb the light Yet turn their heads to the struggle and ignore the fight I recognise the lives of my people on the street tryna eat too Was told "my son, they're out to beat you So careful who you speak to, coz they tend to cling a leash to Teach you wrong and unleash the beast in you" But I see the real in the eyes of those that you judge Understand the plight of those that are addicted to d** See a child is a child, we all starve the same Trying to evolve from rats to escape from this racing game I'm taking aim at myself, I say I'm faithful as hell My ear's to the streets coz we got a story to tell And best to listen coz wisdom got me living to learn Time to take a step back and give your people a turn Chorus x 2: I stay faithful though the road may be long I stay faithful in my belief to carry on I stay faithful though tomorrow may never come Still I wait for the day we can return to the sun Verse 2:L-FRESH The LION I live for today and not tomorrow This life is a gift that'll return one day like it was borrowed To the Most High the Maker, you see, there is nothing greater Than letting go of it all and watching the cards fall Coz we call cling too tightly to what we don't need So much so, we'd rather watch our fellow man bleed Than to see him succeed, I wonder what drives you When I look inside your eyes I'm tryna find you So we can speak man-to-man, openly and understand No games or tricks or hiding behind the picture like a camera-man Your inner vision's never tainted Listen closely to your hearts message and go out and say it! This life is too short it only lasts a while You learn a lot about a person when they let go and smile They're sharing a moment with you, if only for a second Love and faith put together is a powerful weapon I stay faithful Chorus x 2
