Natalie Lauren, Swoope - Best of Me lyrics

All of the things I do for love
Wondering if it's good enough
I can't let it take control of me
But, I promise I'll stay
I promise, you'll see
I promise to give you the best of me

Will I let you down? Will I disappoint?
If it's too many bars
Will you miss the point?
Rapping that Similac or giving
Voice to the loins
Making music for the shows or explicit joints
Paying homage to the heads, the Killa Bee's
A bunch of similes over Dilla beats
Or maybe I instead start
Mimicking the industry
Get trapped in a genre that isn't me
I know you gotta play the
Game for the victory
Balance is the challenge
Selling out is a quick defeat
Trying not to let my identity
Be wrapped up in whether or not you
Play repeat or skip this beat
Whether or not you're impressed
By my wordplay drama that my verbs make
Keeping me in first place
Was that line offensive? Should
You run it back? Did you catch that metaphor
On the first play?
Is my status based off of endless tweets?
If you're talking classics
Will you mention me?
I don't wanna let y'all down
What if you don't feel me?
Will you have a field day if this feels weak?
I know I probably shouldn't say this
But hey it's Sinema
I'm giving you the real me is this pressure
Because I made my success an
Obsession? Am I lesser?
When Christ says that I'm
Already accepted now
This standard that I'm holding up the
Reason I can't let you down

It's been two years, and I am afraid of
Not making a classic that's not Wake Up
The weight of
The weight of the last one kinda takes a
Toll on my heart, pay up, keep it in line
Shape up
Taper, gonna take a whole lot more to fade us
You see what my heart's made of
Darker than Darth Vader want the Marc Jacobs
More than the ladder that's marked "Jacob's"
The latter is far greater
Former is small taters
Compared to the glory the Lord's been
Storing for our sake cuz
After Revelation, way before Sega
That's Genesis
His image is making us far greater
So I ain't gotta measure up to your standard
Cuz I know I don't measure
Up to your standard
Perfection of the cross says
I'm inadequate handle this
My heart wasn't made for glory
But the blessing of the cross says
I'm that equipped to battle this
Why? Cuz Jesus stands before me
I'm human, I'm prone to fail U R E
So at some point I'm gonna fail you, sorry
It's freedom in that, so stop stressing
On whether I'm hot or not, stop guessing
I don't need your two thumbs up
So stop texting perfection is the goal
But excellence is accepted
All last year I was wrestling with depression
School of hard knocks till I
Finally learned the lesson
You don't learn to trust God
Till you gotta trust God
Don't learn you got nothing
Until it's just God

All of the things I do for love
