Down For The Count

[Hook - Adonis Reaper]

Shadow-boxing my conscious

Had me down for the count

(Down for the count)

Had to get up regardless

Gather my strength for the last round

(Last round)

Game turned me heartless

Outgrew all the people I hung around

(Hung around)

Had me using my heart less

Was running around with the wrong crowd

(Wrong crowd)


[Verse 1 - Adonis Reaper]

Yeah

My life was Godless, I was just living so lawless, yeah

I was far from flawless, Ready To Die like Christopher Wallace, yeah

This was before they would call us

Before we turned into some artists, yеah

We were thinking 'bout rands & commas, tryna fill our wallеts, yeah

Scheming on plans to get out the bottom, God had to restore us, yeah

Now we just do it for solace, sending love to my brothers, yeah

Back on the wall but I'm fighting regardless

Had to search for the light, in our hearts was darkness

But I value the lessons, it taught us, yeah

Mama said"Turn to God for the answers"

Then I almost lost my uncle to cancer

Situation had me thinking 'bout grandma

So I just had to let go of the anger

Had to forgive all the slander

Reinforced by the fruits of the spirit, now I'm Bulletproof like Adam Sandler

Moving militant, Christ the Chief & Commander

Shadow-boxing my conscious

Had me down for the count

(Down for the count)

Had to get up regardless

Gather my strength for the last round

(Last round)

Game turned me heartless

Outgrew all the people I hung around

(Hung around)

Had me using my heart less

Was running around with the wrong crowd

(Wrong crowd)


[Verse 2 - Adonis Reaper]

Came up with the ones that I'm still around

I'm glad that they never switched up

Like the ones that we found on the way

(On the way)

Looking back, I was led astray

(Astray)

Didn't pray so they preyed on me

(On Me)

I can't blame them entirely

Some of the blame gotta fall on me

The devil was in my ear, following me

God was near, calling on me

I had to die to self & carry the cross

This is the autopsy, death of me

No shackles on my wrists, & mind, finally free

Free from sin, free to be me

To God be the glory

Gotta share my story

Yeah

(To God be the glory)

(Share my story)

(To God be the glory, He saved me)

(To God be the glory)
