O’hene Savant - I Learned The Hard Way lyrics
[O’hene Savant - I Learned The Hard Way lyrics]
Yo, I grew up on New Kirk Street
North Nicholas Holly guns bursting
I was different didn’t really fit in
Good thing ain’t wanna be a statistic
Natural mystic flowin’ inside of the mist
In the mornin’ while most was
Sleep I’m up scriptin’
God-given most think I’m gifted
Sometimes, I’m shocked by these lyrics
Just a vessel givin’ spirit's clearance
I try to share it not interferin’
It’s apparent I don’t fear I’m darin’
Check me technique like Bob McFerrin
Bruce Lee I do sleep but barely
Legally blind to dudes who don’t hear me
I rhyme seriously I mean seriously
I don’t play with rap this my therapy
Therapeutic music could cure Lupus
Loop this if you know what a loop is
If not I recommend you be a student
Of the dude with the most
Prudent views on spewin’
That’s me, the man with the rap songs
I should have been on Daptone
Yo ahaha
As you can see I’m more than a rapper
More like a pastor with
Sermons that’s mastered
Not the most famous but this matters more
Because I touch they lives
They just rap for the cash and the benefit
Of gettin’ women to strip or
Their other fetishes that’s sick
I reminisce on Arrested
Development sistah Eshe
Makin’ us groove to truth like it was easy
Believe me I am the offspring of PE
Hank Shocklee, Shock G, I am Shockley
It shocks me that I’m here I thought
That my life was hell
Sleepin’ in Fairmount Park
Now everybody’s linin’ up to hear my thoughts
As a kid I was taught I should dare not talk
To be seen and not heard
Then my words became my ticket and my worth
Word word
North Nicholas Holly guns bursting
I was different didn’t really fit in
Good thing ain’t wanna be a statistic
Natural mystic flowin’ inside of the mist
In the mornin’ while most was
Sleep I’m up scriptin’
God-given most think I’m gifted
Sometimes, I’m shocked by these lyrics
Just a vessel givin’ spirit's clearance
I try to share it not interferin’
It’s apparent I don’t fear I’m darin’
Check me technique like Bob McFerrin
Bruce Lee I do sleep but barely
Legally blind to dudes who don’t hear me
I rhyme seriously I mean seriously
I don’t play with rap this my therapy
