Faith In God Lyrics

I can out-write, any form of life

In an eight-planet radius

Shakespeare, Picasso, people they should speak my name against

Gifted in the literature, these words I find my paintings in

College-level books in middle school teacher would recommend

Hide them every time I hit that corner round Church Street

They say knowledge is power, but round here that make you look weak

And I ain't tryna get jumped, my auntie just bought these Jordan sneaks

Tryna mind my business till these niggas start callin' me

Say, youngin', ain't you the one that could read good

Word travel fast when we don't see you around the hood

You gotta claim somethin', cause I know who your pop was

Tryna get this money, then you need to get down with us, the real niggas

Hoes ain't tryna fuck no nigga on no scholarship

Talk about that college shit

Tryna get your mom a crib, gon and take this brick

And I'ma show you how to stack it up

till you run them M's up

Everywhere I go, it seems like each soul is lost

Need a church, temple, or mosque

How can I keep faith in God

When it seems there's no tomorrow

Everywhere I go, it seem like they've lost the cause

Think the greed starting to rule us all

How can I keep faith in God

When it seems there's no tomorrow

Finest in the city and every nigga will say she is

Known around the block

as the woman that you couldn't get

Raised by tradition

ThatWest Indian Heritage

Judgmental father, he hated everything that she did

Why you wearin' dresses, which nigga house you done slept in

All she tryna do is live, ain't understandin' these questions

See her mama left her daddy and her daddy still been stressin

So he take it out on her by givin' this hoeish perception

That she got, she tellin' him please stop

I'm not in these streets, I know my worth

He breakin' her heart, he say shut the fuck up

You act like a straight slut, she hearin' these words

Now they becoming in her makeup

And now it's the finest in the city

Ain't a nigga who will say she is

Known to run the block as the woman everybody hate

Graved by restriction, findin' love in whoever would give

Movin' on and on to the next dick

This shit is crazy

Everywhere I go, it seems like each soul is lost

Need a church, temple, or mosque

How can I keep faith in God

When it seems there's no tomorrow

Everywhere I go, it seem like they've lost the cause

Think the greed starting to rule us all

How can I keep faith in God

When it seems there's no tomorrow
