Saint Los - For My Spirit lyrics

[Intro: You think you know me...] [Verse 1: Emɐnuǝl X] As I look to GOD through The eyes of a sinner/ I pray HE looks back through The eyes of The Forgiver/ My stories written in Blood, I Pray I deliver/ And never trade the man in The mirror for slates of silver/ And never will I quiver in The face of adversity/ For as long as I live I Pray My pa**ion still burns in me/ I pray I never push the one's I Love to want to murder me/ For the fact my words could Cause insurgency with urgency/ I can tell your heartbeat Doesn't match your words/ I wish you the best but hope You get what you deserve/ It's hard for me to honestly Say that the truth's preserved/ When I can't even confirm if The truth is even heard/ Every lie off your tongue is Numbing enough to heal/ Just know your lips can't hide What your eyes won't conceal/ It's all too real For me to feel/ [Verse 2: Emɐnuǝl X] I'm 5 stones away From enlightenment/ While you light the spliff rolled Up tighter than a viper's grip/ My thoughts as deep as a Felon's on a Riker's trip/ But what keeps me free from A cage is a mic to spit/ Right the ship as A right of pa**age/ Looking for my salvage cuz in ya Eyes I'm either savage or I'm average/ From my carriage to my Marriage is what builds my soul/ And in that time I'll expose Every man for what he stole/ I hold control... that's Lord Willing/ A diamond in the rough in A village full of villains/ She caught chlamydia Now she need Amoxicillin/ We live in a world where were Made by law to fight the feeling/ Uhh In a world of the blind You still see my tears/ Where we're not judged by our Character but by careers/ In a world of the scared you Can still see my fear/ Despite how it appears I persevere n***a/
