Resting Place Lyrics

I heard a voice one day, a voice from Jesus say

"Come unto me and rest, Oh Lord

Lay down thou weary one

Lay down, down thy head"

Broken jewels hewn from the cornerstone

Deuce say, "get out your comfort zone"

My paranoia's gone

It's bring your own seat to the table, I pulled up a throne

And pray for the day all them missing girls and boys are home

We just now finding out all they been lying 'bout

Ain't no more song for sing-along, man, what we talking bout

Chem-trail this

Tell the black male with common sense

Before you get the recompense, gotta get low, gotta repent

My plan for me ain't what YAH planned to be

So life has been a third degree, I'm back in line, now you've heard of me

The son of YAH, mom and pop

Couple blocks from Outer Drive

How we survive, one answer, the grace of YAH

Many lies, many, I see how they strategize

Militarize, terrorize, put us back in line

Peace of mine, hard to find, how I prioritize

Business mind, when I'm barely making 25

My mind state like an eternal rhythm, kicking

It fly straight whenever I send it on a mission

It was written since when I was double dribbling

Sitting at kitchen table, mama said I'd be different

Penning this is what was meant from the beginning

So let me pull your ear for a little bit

This for all my partners trying to make two different ends stick

Live from the belly of the beast

Let's cut it out

I been feigning for some peace, what y'all fussing bout?

This for my people, subject to lethal, legal, regals

In an oppressive dichotomy

Got us living far from the place where YAH would be

Waking up stuck, sleeping around the clock

Stop, watch

You don't own the block, you just on the clock

Boy, stop

I've seen beloved ones succumb to slugs 'cause youths tugging Glocks

What's keeping you from getting popped?

This is crazy

This rhyme a euphemism for the truth, these verses vivid

New prescription for when love was low, he couldn't feel it

Let's be real, when it come to right and wrong, we all gotta get healed

Even me

It's consistent, I'm having visions for what we can be

Drop EP after EP and you'll have to binge me

These two hands are the witnesses to action

And my plans are the product of this passion

Man, this ship I can't risk crashing

I do like that

Yeah, uh

To show money, it make them want money

So what do I have to make you want from me?

An encouraging word

We product programmed at eight weeks it gets deep

Laying down heavy burdens by the footstool

Certain you would do the same if it looks cool

Perfect pain, little rain for the grain

Growth is evident, heaven sent, everything else is irrelevant
