[Verse 1]
From the city of beggars & the city of strivers
Many strive to be stars, pray that God will align us
I dream of Heaven cause we live in hell apparently
The more I pray the more I question "is he really hearing me?"
God listen I have to speak my soul out
Debating whose the greatest then somebody bring the polls out
Lets face it, yall too basic, no rockstars but I bet you boys will fall out
Been working on these verses so hard I can't even call out damn
My brother Autumn is the go to man
I never met somebody in my life with so many plans
He's a genius of his own caliber
Its our time check your calendar
We got thoughts that Socrates or Plato can't comprehend
I understand, I had to change, I cut the middle man
I promise to only speak the truth so you can take me to the stand
Right hand, on the Bible
Word to the 12 Disciples
Feeling like the true 12th since Judas truly was a rival
Or traitor, same difference to me
A vision to see
My old compadres are like "Jordan, you seem distant to me"
No hard feelings I'm just busy living a blessing, you see
How I'm just coming into who I was really destined to be (uh)
Feeling lifted but thats not a result of the reefer
Its time for U.N.I.T.Y thats word to Queen Latifah
Its grind time, no time to kick my feet up
Been spitting crack, was dry for some time but I just re'd up
Vida! Im living it
This is just the beginning of how Ima be winning
This here is Genesis
Been fighting myself just to finish this
It all shifts when you realize you are your own nemesis. (damn)
Interesting plans, so militant man
Im shining like a diamond you can see the brilliance at hand
I call it perfect timing, so reset your watches again
Ima keep on shining until I'm chose for Hell or Heaven
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
God rules everything around me, Gream
Chasing green isn't all that there is, but how it seems
When you have nothing poppin' bottles and blowing trees
Seems like somethin', but many just frontin'
Doing it just to fit in
I'd rather touch a soul, change a life with my book & pen
Every good deed, I believe, it should take away from sins
But sometimes thats just not how it is
I had to grasp that, aspect
I came back & yes thats the past tense
Yall party we crashed it
Its lit now so ash it
Poppin bottles of Remy same last name as Aston (uh)
Yall probably didn't get that, just sit back
Kick your feet up & take a break like Kit Kat
Yall worried bout failing man, we worried bout the get back
That open mind flow, I spit some bars it push your wig back
Take that, Finito, I take em back like Repo
Im on my second "Life"
Living La Vida the Sequel
