A-Reece - GODLIKE lyrics
[A-Reece - GODLIKE lyrics]
(You) feel that could be you (You, you, you)
How does it feel?
That could be you (You, you, you)
How does it feel?
What would you do? (You, you, you)
What's a king to a God? I'm like
What's a king to a God? I'm like (yeah)
What's a king to a- Godlike
Don't get it twisted I still got it it's just
These days it takes a lot to
Bring it out of me godlike (yeah)
Got to the crib and I
Just connected the Scarlett
Back to recordin'
Gotta be consistent when you give
'em this kind of performance godlike
The song bleeds, the tongue is a sword
Back to makin' music that the
Grammys no longer reward, godlike
Sparkin' minds with the rhymes I used
To write in the dark
Describin' all those nights we had to
Pray for a better tomorrow
Acceptin' the fact you gotta
Continue to starve
It's hard to work with what you got
When you don't have nothin' at all
It's me against the world and
A legion of demons
That grew wings inside my head 'cause
I kept 'em a secret
That's when the glow inside my
Spirit just slowly depleted
I had to face 'em so I'm on my knees facin'
East to slowly redeem it
The heart tells the mind to use
Love to defeat the evils
In this game I got the crown
I'm on the throne seated
But back home I'm uncle Reece
To all of my nieces
Tryna be there when I'm needed
'Long as I'm here and I'm breathin'
I gotta change with the seasons
My time isn't yet a luxury
It hurts me to tell you l'm leavin'
Just know I do this 'cause
You're part of the reason
When God made me he created a leader
Been a legend since the days of a fetus
Remember when they took my
Silence for weakness
But go silent when I finally achieve it
Fuck 'em and fuck the world 'cause I
Ain't savin' it either somebody tell me
What's the price of my freedom?
Another life I guess
I'm in Zambia findin' it hard to rest
Far from home, feel like I ain't even left
On the dusty streets of LSK
I went from happiness to being stressed
I could see the mansions with the views
The city life and all
Until we drove, further down the road
I started seeing less
More of what I saw next were 12 year
Olds with their mothers under the blazin' sun
Covered in black residue, sellin' coal
Still barely able to provide
For a broken home wondering how they cope
Saw police stations, no hospitals close
No schools but to the church though
All of them go
But, it's never easy restorin' that hope
Heaven or hell, guess we're livin' in both
But, it's like the meek just
Keep burnin' the most
And I'm just blessed to be on
My way to another show
Turning my thoughts into memorable quotes
Before I leave corpse and turn into a ghost
Satisfied that I played a pivotal role
Known for touchin' a soul whenever he spoke
Although he spoke in code whenever he wrote
Godlike and if they paint me as the villain
I'm chilled 'Cause like the devil
How the fuck they s'posed to stop me
If they think I ain't real? (yeah)
Just like the devil
How the fuck they s'posed to stop me
If they think I ain't real?
Feel that could be you how does it feel?
That could be you how does it feel?
That could be you (You, you, you)
(You, you, you, You, you, you)
Don't get it twisted
I still got it it's just
These days it takes a lot to
Bring it out of me
How does it feel?
That could be you (You, you, you)
How does it feel?
What would you do? (You, you, you)
What's a king to a God? I'm like
What's a king to a God? I'm like (yeah)
What's a king to a- Godlike
Don't get it twisted I still got it it's just
These days it takes a lot to
Bring it out of me godlike (yeah)
