Adian Coker - Gospel lyrics

VERSE 1 I learned to sniff out the bullsh** like a hound boy Mama told me to keep them heels on the ground boy And when you get your shot you better go to town boy Cause life ain't ever black and white if you a brown boy So I take my headstrong, my working cla** grouping My dialect, Tarantino's in the hood shooting I dot my i's, attitude like do or die No Sushi a** n***a I got big fish to fry We still be guilty way before the plea Cause there ain't nothing promised for an IC3 And I see, limited routes to get the queens So it's less I have a dream, more by any means Tell me what's a young n***a to do Out here tryna get that honey like, Winnie the Pooh So we do not snooze, and we dare not lose Till the day we make the paper And I ain't talking front page news and that's gospel VERSE 2 I'm the, Young Lord elect Tryna make the real and the dreams connect Paid dues earned respect, I go hard keep my foot at they neck Mainstream money, f** those reality cheques I had negligible pounds, but my sound had em all bound I voyaged like captain cook, 'til I broke new ground Then it's shift gears, foot on the clutch to get money cause Luthor Vandross said its never too much Until I see that decimal 6 zeros to the figure Ima be a hungry 6 ft 2 n***a, no pawns on my board Only kings with weight, and we don't f** with them knights Cause they never move straight Big dreams to dream, I rewrote my fate, did it well done Mediums rare for what's at steak We take no days off or pull a sicky Coming for that throne sittin prettier than Ricky that's gospel VERSE 3 I came from a place of guts and glory, far from Ballimory Where they tell tall tales like it's fiction, true story That got me chasing all the trappings all the winnings So when we finally eat ima order all the trimmings My mother told me education was the right guard to Shield me from the devil but I wasn't too sure So I be running the streets with my brothers wasn't watching Nickelodeon when Marcus Houston was still immature Now I'm Braving this cold world, wrapped like an Inuit They sold me dreams I couldn't afford but still bought into it Lessons learned, scars earned, couple of bridges burned But the losses set me straight like black ladies hair perms So I impeach you to reach, although I lost some of my faith I kept my beliefs, so f** a piece, I'll take it all, no less All the time, no rest, they were skeptical before but now they know? Oh yes and that's gospel
