YE SHALL FIND Lyrics

One day you're just a kid, y

You Blink and then you're grown up

But one thing never changes

That's the fact that we don't know much

Was April 1st of 94, I came here by my lonesome

Good Friday, three days later, they was saying

Jesus rose up or something

Can't say I came from nothing

My folks could penny pinch

Ain't always get what I wanted

Coulda not got me shit

Still always came through when it came to things that made my heart sing

I ran track, hooped, did AAU till I was 18, and not to mention all the other in-betweens

Sleepovers with the homies

Fridays at the skating rink

Prom night whippin mom Corolla

Still managed to hit some cheeks

Stayed out all night with the homies

Sunday morning, I ain't miss a beat

And I can hear it now, my mama used to say to me

You could come and praise the Lord

If you was out there in them streets

I didn't always abide, once I tasted freedom

Know that her prayers covered me

Cuz I ain't supposed to be here

I know some folks who sleeping

I pray they rest in peace

I'm praying more for peace these days

And less for things

I peeped the schemes of the isms

Gave my niggas itis

Sold them freedom and some still

Think that they can buy it

Constantly pondering, fathering black babies

Wars, plagues, earthquakes, looking like revelations

Increasing inflation, the price of living outrageous, and not to mention, the internet

Make it feel like the matrix

Was lacking on inspiration

Some failures just take a toll

Some tell you they love you one day, and the next day

They be gone

Learn to appreciate the moments, and the art of moving on

And never lose sight of the ones

Who stayed close

Heartbreak is good for the soul

I wear my heart on my sleeve, keep manifesting my dreams, sing affirmations to God

That I got all that I need

Keep waterin my little seeds

Turns out the thing that

I've been searching for, been searching for me
