lyrics

It go back like gospel roots
Praise Jesus
lookin in the mirror chasing truth
200 proof
Deja Vu - just shake it loose
I ain’t this. I ain’t that. and I ain’t you.
Name a time you could say that my vibe ain’t true
That’s like sayin Staten Isle ain’t Wu
They can’t block progress cause we pushin’ right on through
all the cracks cause light does what light gon’ do.
What I look like questioning fools?
Guess i’m not the kinda wolf that like dressing in wool
I ain’t tryna give these suckas something to pull
over my eyes cause they can’t stand the sight of my view
Watch me turn it all gold like Midas would do
Fly and bring back dark from that side of the moon
Just to provide examples how Ultraviolet consume
…until everything is embers… I remember….
But i’m tryna forget.
Get reminded everytime I see Shasta’s wrist
Shadows don’t survive in a life this lit
…and like….. That’s my shit.

Movement. Keep movin’ now.
(Repeat)

Can’t tell me nothin’ bout hail mary
touching down
If you ain’t praying for me keep my name out your mouth
known to make it rain in a drought
I can drain the clouds
Got some angels you should really watch what you say around
Ain’t nothing like heading downtown after cooking with Deven
We got heaven to hand out
All of my people eatin’
We make all this bread to feed ‘em
we be fighting for peace
and they be calling that freedom
And we be needin’ more leaders with pride and ego
like homeless folk need another giant cathedral
that they can’t sleep in… so they forced to keep woke
…while we all claim that we are right…
3:33 am - it’s been all night
fighting the vampires waiting on the day light
hang tight - waiting for the ray’s brightness
knowing sunrise comin’ like a east bound flight red eye

Movement. Keep movin’ now.
(Repeat)
