Ivy Sole - Parables songtext (lyrics)
[Ivy Sole - Parables songtext lyrics]
Parents speaking in parables
Paradise what they want for me
Shawties never saw marital
Vowing that it'll come for me
Comfort me with the holy book
Probably closer to the fallen one
Lucifer on my looseleaf
But I know I ain’t the only one
Preacher say I'm a Jezebel
Thinking he might be right
I be having hellish thoughts
Rather you spend the night
Shooting for the climax
Cuz it feels like heaven's gates
So at least I’m seeing holy
If I'm gambling with fate
Buddha says life suffering
And humans need some rest
Enjoying every pleasure
Anticipating the stress
Every test, every yet not
Spirit demands we fret not
Joy comes when the day breaks
So deny desire, we best not
Parents speaking in parables
Only thing they agree on
Papa be pastor lately
I wonder which book he reads from
Revelations' a favorite
Proverbs keeping me even
Genesis my obsession
Even days I don't believe it
Every song as a season
My solomon promise prompted
An energy pull and push but my treason it
Ain't an option i stray away from this topic
My politics open book when I talk about god
I get the skeptical looks
I believe in eternity, life after it ends
Everlasting aside, my soul is golden within
I'm just tryna live the best
Life I can on earth
Mama told me ain't no faith without works
So we workin'
A sower went out to sow his seed
And as he sowed
Some fell in the path and was trampled on
And the birds of the air ate it up
Some fell on the rock and as it grew
Up it withered for lack of moisture
Some fell among thorns and the thorns
Grew with it and choked it
Some fell into good soil and when
It grew it produced a hundredfold
Find where you can bloom, baby
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the lord my soul to keep and if I die
Paradise what they want for me
Shawties never saw marital
Vowing that it'll come for me
Comfort me with the holy book
Probably closer to the fallen one
Lucifer on my looseleaf
But I know I ain’t the only one
Preacher say I'm a Jezebel
Thinking he might be right
I be having hellish thoughts
Rather you spend the night
Shooting for the climax
Cuz it feels like heaven's gates
So at least I’m seeing holy
If I'm gambling with fate
Buddha says life suffering
And humans need some rest
Enjoying every pleasure
Anticipating the stress
Every test, every yet not
Spirit demands we fret not
Joy comes when the day breaks
So deny desire, we best not
Parents speaking in parables
Only thing they agree on
