Never Change Freestyle Lyrics

The most important year of my life and most productive

Was the year of most pain

The year of most rain

The year I doubted whether my 20 years was in vain

Cause that's about how long I've held hiphop in my hand

Trust hiphop know my name

Yo favorite rapper stole rap verses I wrote in 03

Back in the days of payin

For studio time

Before my microphone had came in

My auntie never knew her christmas gift would make me famous

I hope she know now

Every album that I put out

Recorded in-house

It was only me and God in a room

Never a year when resolution was new

Every december 31st I was blue

What you know about watching rappers you better than

Convince the whole city of settlin

For subpar bars and metaphors

And know the culture that you love is getting destroyed

But the gatekeepers blockin so you aint got a choice

And you aint got a voice

Do you know how many music execs took me on record label tours

Showed me the plaques

And all the money they invoice

But when I wouldn't compromise

They showed me to the door

I'm Christian to the core

That means my heart is glued to His hand

An empty tomb is where my confidence stands

You prolly thinkin then

Surely gospel music gave him a home

Wish you was right

But I must tell you you wrong

They don't mess with me

Cause I love Christ too much

To go commodify

And I won't cut off my friends

For streams on spotify

He was cursing on songs

He cannot qualify

To be a rapper of this gospel

I stand with the apostles

In hoods where it's hostile

Aint no jobs

So we gone get it how we got to

Life too hard

And America way too racist

For us to believe that a white man is our Savior

That's why in black churches

The people always shouting

We know what it feels like

To climb a mountain

And get hung on a tree

For absolutely nothin

We know that the cross real

Cause we seen it in this country

My whole life is a pardox

I gamble with a pair of dice

Everytime I tell Him that I'm His

Man makes plans

But God directs em in the end

I'm finally cool

If I never sit in a benz

The train ride was smooth

In 20 minutes I was here

Sitting next to the homeless keeps my mission really clear

When I aint have a roof

It was the Christians who was there

Who gave me a bunkbed

And a rent that I could share

With four other dudes

Who was also finding they place

And them dudes is still my brothers to this day

But sadly all my brothers didn't stay

Some of em went astray

Convinced that I aint love em and had changed

The only thing I changed

Was the amount of times I pray

Plus i no longer hit the weed

When rotated my way

I apologize for times when I got arrogant

Thinkin I'm better than you

When perfection aint in my radius

I aint goin live to brag about being fly

I came to kick something that they could feel

Cause if you should die

Before this verse comes awake

Then yo blood on my hands

Cause yo spirit at stake

That's why it's hard to stop when I get started

If I stop rappin

Who gone do what I do

Who gone preach how I preach

Be the voice of the streets

Share his truth and his grace

And in the end never change

Uh
