Logic - Soul Food lyrics

Goddamn, goddamn, conversations with legends
Crazy how one day yo' idols
Can turn into your brethren
Bitches we severin', hit up my jeweler
Watch him freeze us
Breaking bread like I'm Jesus
Money ain't everything, but somehow eases
Better believe than think down and leave us
The baby cryin'
Crack cookin' where my sister
Be fryin' soul food
Plus my other sister just went
Back to her old dude
He whoopin' her ass I'll kill him
I'll kill him
I'll motherfuckin' kill him, I said
I really want to kill him but I can't
'Cause if I do, po-po gon'
Claim I'm the villain, but I ain't
See my vision from pictures I paint
Do you feel it like I feel it? I


Grip the mic and then kill it okay, i'm gone
As memories resurface from hella
Long in my past
Chillin', sippin' Sinatra from a flask
Little Bobby, just a youngin'
Skating was my hobby
Tryna stay out of trouble
My homie in jail for robbery
Welfare, food stamps
And stealing from the sto'
Come home and see an eviction
Notice taped to my do'
Can't take no mo', mama on drugs, daddy MIA
What can I say? I just wanted
To be a kid and play
To this day, I pay homage to the gods
To the greats
Never stolen, I'm from Maryland
Where they shoot you in the dark of the night
Like Christopher Nolan
For talking outta your colon
Catch me rollin' with the realest
Lyricism the illest, my chain
Is the chillest, sub Zero
Far from a hero, bitch
I'm De Niro in Goodfellas
If your bitch around me
Best bring an umbrella
Let me tap into my inner southern killer
None other illa murder the game and then
Resurrect it like "Thriller"
Yeah, my skin is vanilla
But bitch I dare ya to test my killa
We don't do it for the skrilla
We do it for love
Word to my homies up above
We slingin' like drugs
And overdose 'em like the dealer does (Logic)
Yeah

Hip-hop

I swear this music in my genes like Denim
Lyricism seep in 'em like venom
Yes, I know the flow hotter than
Lucifer, even though heaven sent him, uh

See my vision as I've elevated and risen
Open your eyes
Despise lies told with deadly precision
I finally made my way up
Out that section 8 division
Not by busting and killing though I've
Had my share of stealin'
But by putting pen to this
Pad and dispersin' these feelings
While the label only care
About making a killin'
Feel my energy I ain't talking E-N-E-R-G-Y
I mean inner G
That's the shit they never see
But I own supremacy, number one I better be
Bitch, I said, "I bet I be"
Take my kindness for weakness
Trying to get the better of me
Tell me, how is they gon' remember me?
As the artist that concocted
The perfect recipe?
Or will they be addressing me
Talking less of me
Just 'cause I was different
Just 'cause I was doing what I love?
And the fans say they love you
But they push and they shove
'Cause they want what they want how
They want when they want it
I just gave them twenty songs
Now they want another hunnid
I just see it as a challenge
I could do it, bitch, i run it
Worldwide tours, type of shit I always wanted
While the rest of 'em just worry
'bout bitches and gettin' blunted
Still that same motherfucker from that YS1
Only difference: I'm stronger and better
From when I begun
So when people that never knew me
They tell me that I changed
That my music is different
And my vision's rearranged, i just stop
(I just stop) and do my best to refrain
From having conversations with people that
Ain't in my lane
Will I die? (Will I die?) Will I live?
Give the world everything I have to give
This is feelings on the page, know my wisdom
Not my age understand that I'm a man not
Defined by his wage
Even though it's in the millions
That shit don't define my brilliance
Open your mind and maybe you
Can see the billions
Of people that separated, but all equal
To know the ending, one
Must understand the prequel, uh

I swear this music in my genes like Denim
Lyricism seep in 'em like venom
Yes, I know the flow hotter than
Lucifer even though heaven sent him
Spit it like Holy water
Prophetically repent 'em then we gone
