Saigon - In The Sky lyrics

[Intro: Davis Absolute] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Here we go Here we go Let's go [Hook: Sean Simmonds] If they guess where I'm at Tell 'em, I'm right here I stand beside a giant There resides no fear Oh no I never ride Solo I hear the cry Hold on We gon' fly Ay-yi yi yi On cloud nine We go so high Can't bring us down, we so fly Hold on I know it won't Be long Until we see His face It was well worth the wait When we meet Him in the sky [Verse 1: Saigon] I'm deep as the creva**es on the ocean floor But I can fly, see me walking through that open door I'm no longer reminding them how I broke the law Sold dope before and left a boy with a broken jaw So much more I can focus on I'm noticing hope is gone Y'all beat us in the head with all these bogus songs They ask if I really believe in God Why would He let evil people eat while His people starve I tell them, every question asked don't need to be solved Like when they ask why I named myself after Vietnam No need to be alarmed I might not can't read a palm But I can see the future as clear as tomorrow I'm down surrounded by murder by the pound, d**h row Row, row the boat further down the Nile The Nile is the penal They have a ni**a there until he senile Yeah Off-top like a real freestyle [Hook] [Verse 2: Davis Absolute] Until then I'm sitting here on Heaven's steps If minutes is millenniums there's only seconds left They chasin' a meal, eat a slug, before their second breath If they make it to the table, find there's only seconds left What you expect to get Or recollect, from those who never represent Heaven sent a teacher If I'm speaking it's lesson then it's completed infinite evidence Placed within a grace that is measureless Measured by could never be meddled with They say we gotta see it Take a hike, never buy what they peddling You can keep it Plenty liars, slick with the penmanship Put me in a Colosseum with the red letters then Pray I stay strong, even if they bear arms On your boy, call me the revenant Son of the Father, servant staying true to his purpose, pray to Yahweh alone and find rest in His worship I look to the thrown whenever I'm stressed and I'm worried He leads me by the still waters, I'm never hurried [Hook] [Verse 3: Swift] Until then, I'm here, life defining my position Face forward what's this climb without opposition Head in the clouds, but not enough a distraction here to supply what they lackin' I'm plotting a plan of action Before they start saying sold it all for the ma**es Naw Just had to deliver these doses in fractions Let my brothers know they come from kings not n***as And plot thicker than just having a thing for pulling triggers Ain't saying nothing that they wasn't saying before What you expect when they tellin' us not to aim to be more As long as I'm breathing I'm staying my course Even if it cost me my life from pointing them straight to the source I tried to tell 'em that God is peace That's not big enough Do anything to be free, but still a prisoner The chain is heavy, so is the burden To inform, to be continued on Higher Learnin' [Hook] (x2)
