WISE FOOL Lyrics

KS

Cold nights we had to make do

Bro said be careful who stands beside you

The ends full of backstabbers, liars and cobras

When I didn't listen then it made me a wise fool

Lack of money management got me thinking to do fraud again

But my first action should be tithe and offerings

All these biblical teachings but I'm lacking common sense

Got me moving off my emotions and not being spiritually led

The car behind me beeping the light went green

I got caught in a daydream I haven't been feeling like myself lately

24 hours I'm still wasting it

Making excuses when I should be facing it

You done me dirty but it's cool I'm embracing it

All this pain I carried over from a youngen

Had me questioning who I was becoming

Looking in the mirror I see nothing

All these insecurities had me holding back courage

How am I in my twenties and I'm figuring out what love is

How am I writing all these songs and my mum still don't know who her son is

You told me not to worry about it cause when I start worrying I'm doubting

This is a temple of God that's not allowed in

Voices in my head are shouting

I'm trying to drown them out but I'm drowning

Through this life there's trips and tumbles

Back then I just wanted a LV duffle

To match the bag with the buckle

Back in a bit

Hours later made a couple of quids

Wasting my teens focusing on drip

When I should've been investing

I ain't taking the mains, the mains too bait

They would've clocked my face

My dawgs got a blade

He said just in case

I said Lord keep me safe

My mum's still shouting turn down the bass

But she don't know what happened yesterday

It's crazy how we grew up

We were drinking alcohol till we threw up

Round here handling beef with sticks like skewers

I top up bars like a brewer

Street smart but clueless

Never took in the wise words cause we were foolish

Cold nights when we had to make do

Bro said be careful who stands besides you

The ends full of backstabbers, liars and cobras

When I didn't listen then it made me a wise fool

He said they don't even like you I said of course they do

You know what they say about the truth it hurt and it set me free

This drive I'm taking silently Lord I ask you keep your eyes on me

And I'm sure you're guiding me

Ensuring that I'm breathing

Practising your teachings stand with you regardless of the seasons

I pray these temporary pleasures never look appealing

Cause trials is where the faith is really tested

Seeking peace I've been restless

When you're waiting for a breakthrough it creates tension

I pray I have clear intentions

God please clear this head of mine I've been feeling restless

Clear this heart of mine

I've been seeking vengeance

And these open cuts are starting to get infectious

From those cold nights when we had to make do

Bro said be careful who stands besides you

The ends full of backstabbers, liars and cobras

When I didn't listen then it made me a wise fool

Them cold nights when we had to make do

Bro said be careful who stands besides you

The ends full of backstabbers liars and cobras

When I didn't listen then it made me a wise fool
