|
Free man now but a slave to my savior
|
College graduate but I'm still going for majors
|
Yeah, black belt in a bad way
|
Ha, Ju-don't know? I did what my sins-say (preach)
|
Notorious was my mindset, I got faith - wasn't ready to die yet (take that take that)
|
Now take that from a Bad Boy
|
None of it's mines I'm just playin' with my dad's toys (preach)
|

This dude said "why you rap off beat?"
|
I don't rap off beat, the beat is off me

[Verse 3: Duce Banner]
|
Last year round this time my grandfather died
|
I thank God every day he got to live a full life
|
Friends hustle said I had a future not to waste it
|
Then I got sappy they right, I never woulda made it
|
Too emotional for thuggin' see that's a handicap
|
That road would only lead to bein' dead, in jail or handicapped
|
Last I heard at church he catchin bodyies in the street
|
I'm sure reppin' with perspective by me bodyin' this beat (well)
|
Grew up a Christian he found me and I repented
|
But still was Dennis the menace my earnest prayer to be with it

|
Workin' at Target but target ain't my target
|
I've been aimin' at my target since this rap thing started I
|
Treated him like a dog, I had God backwards
|
Now they mention me on Twitter, I'm back at it...

|
We gettin' happy doin' the praise break
|

|
And if you love Him like I love Him praise the Lord
|
And if you know you been good praise the Lord
|
And with your life and your words just praise the Lord
|
Come on praise the Lord
|
Let's praise the Lord
