Grits - Gutter Boy lyrics
[Grits - Gutter Boy lyrics]
We all look for money, power, fame, power
Let me talk to you, well on
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know you need to come down gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know it's best to come 'round
Gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy
You know you're expensive and tough
Gutter boy, you mix up with the wrong stuff
You might end up in the castle while your
Bridges on my life it's on my body
But are the one will bite dust
Gutter boywatch out now
Money and the power
And the fame and the sweat
End up down the mortuary
They're shouting out your chest
Shoot out in the town, like it's a wild
Wild westbut me bible is me
Bulletproof vest - yes
Quit's in all them man
Just to send me upon a quest
Bring the reggae music, feed by notes
Salute D Ness in-a this your life
It come like you feel protest
Pick up your shield of righteousness - yes
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know you need to come down gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know it's best to come 'round
Gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that you some as the ground
Yo predestined, manifesting
Learned through life's lessons, impressing
Despite my many indiscretions
I still be blessed by his essence
I'm gonna be here 'til it's over
Stuck in the place 'cause I fit
I beat the past so long
Ain't bucking the place 'cause it's it
I got the troops with the flame
And it's aimed at the youth
It's all the same
Why we came: to gather fame in the booth
A different plane was the same
My reign is the proof
What's to be gained? Total
Things show lanyard loop
I thought them castles form
A church said, "Huh, "
We ain't ashamed our faith is who we are
Put up the bar which was worth getting
Vision as yet to be fulfilled and facilitated
Wishing I was open to the
Real and the things related
That will reveal all the blood that
Would be spilled while I
Tally up the tolls of all
The depth that I feel
See, expected moving up the block
Suspect that even though I rock
You still got enough
Protected from the shock
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know you need to come down gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know it's best to come 'round
Gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that you some as the ground
My life story, yo (feel me)
I was an only child
Trapped between a separation
My parent's altercation grew
Into incarceration
My father's good intentions soon
Became my mental breaking
But, I was too young
To understand the complication
And, through the pain
My mother pushed for higher education to numb
The situation through the heart determination
And, at the time, neither took the
Chance to give and explanation
So I drew my own
Conclusion for the circumstance
I didn't understand a man's
Ways, apart from God
Was the curse of bad decisions
Made apart from God
And the punishment was living with the
Repercussions of a path left
Only meant for my destruction
I was a church boy, trying to be a gutter boy
Run around with ghetto boys
Playing with the metal toys
Out to get a repertoire, trying
To get that butter, boy
The life I would have settled for
But God had something better, boy
Waiting for the Carter boy
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know you need to come down gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know it's best to come 'round
Gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that you some as the ground yo
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know you need to come down gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know it's best to come 'round
Gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that used to fear it town
Gutter boy, you know you look at trouble
But you're living in a bubble
Take off your book
And dis some Asguard ground gutter boy
You know that you have to come down
Gutter boy
You know that used to fear it town
Gutter boy, you know you look at trouble
But you're living in a bubble
Take off your book, and
Dis some Asguard ground, yo
