A Better Approach

Ver 1

Conflicting thoughts got me reaching for my crucifix/
stare in my eyes/
im accustome to the lies/
my family talk the bible/
im just trying to comprehend/
im still religious/
but somehow I aint fitting in/
the page turns /
im watching my sins burn/
like the book of revelation/
has thou been forsaken/
my granny still praying /
while im pacing threw this cold world/
ol girl /
the mother that birthed miss pearl/
deeper emotions when I speak about our situation/
her first child/
father figure barley around/
still I smile as the smoke turns to ashes/
im giving you my life/
the confessions of a bastard/
glance threw my chapters/
my trails and tribulations/
I told them we gon make it threw the love and dedication/
Ambition kept me focus/
lock my body set my mind free/
the fourth degree becoming conscious like im pose to be/




CH 2x
Blood on my hands/
im just trying to wash my sins/
outside the holy gate/
praying the lord gon let me in/
my journey so long /
but we getting so close/
got me searching for a better approach/

Ver 2
Witness the pain in a mothers eyes/
vanila skies could easily usher in another rainy day/
baptized/
we just trying to wash our stains away/
at first they love us/
but the struggle feel the same today/
had self doubt/
I was trying to figure out /
if we was on the right route/
then whats this karma all about/
made it rain in a drought/
shook fake hands with fake friends/
pocket watchers/
deceitful eyes and fake grins/
lets move along/
papa was a rolling stone/
watched him get his roll on /
I figured out whats goin on/
the same ol foes/
play the game like its chess/
the wrong move put your kingdom under check /
protect yo neck /
these snakes walk on they all two/
eternal spirits warned you /
im speaking what im goin threw /
preach it to the pastor/
my testimony in hieroglyphs /
lifes a bitch /
I just happed to fall in love with/
