Jay Electronica - Who's Gonna Save My Soul lyrics
[Jay Electronica - Who's Gonna Save My Soul lyrics]
I never knew that Mary'd put a
Hole in my fishing boat
I got to tripping more
She went to bitching more
The court of Universal Law
Said it wasn't permissable
She went to forte, I stayed pianissimo
Then I went to forte and she went to physical
Should I go should I stay and withstand
The additional attacks on the
Mental and the physical
It's gone get dangerous
Why waste time in these child-like exchanges
Why waste time with these child-like games
It's just make up to break up
Crying all the time baby
Messing up your make-up
Try and scratch my face up
She said "I need communication Jay
But you don't say much"
I know it ain't okay but
I from where niggas keep they mouth
Closed and the gate shut
It seem like only yesterday that
I was just a kid in Christian Dior velour
Ballies and a shape-up
Spinning on cardboard and trying to
Rip a break up life comes at you fast
I went from sleeping in class
To sleeping in the streets forgetting
Where I wake up when I was hit with trial
I slipped into survival mode
And did a lot of shit
A nigga wasn't proud of, so
When I be sittin on the
Couch with a blankhead i be at the homeless
Shelter jefferson in Bankhead
A Jack sippin dankhead
Making sure niggas don't steal my clothes
Trying to make a path so I fufill my goals
Trying to take a bath so I can heal my soul
A little bit of laughter to conceal my woes
Who gone save me?
