Ransom - Redemption lyrics
[Ransom - Redemption lyrics]
Top of the morning to ya (Morning)
I pray you niggas realize what's
Been afforded to ya (yeah)
You need light in that dark alley?
I brought it to ya free of charge (Free)
I gave you game when you gambled
Then you beat the odds i gave you pain
They in shambles when they see a scar
(Facts) now say my name, when you say it
Say that he's a god (I'm a god)
How you gon' tell me what I shouldn't do
When I did exactly what you told
Me that I couldn't do?
Niggas ain't good if they ain't
As good as you
Wish a nigga would is what you wouldn't do
Your mans got some pull but
He ain't pullin' through (Woo)
Pain is good when it's put to use (yeah)
I'm on the eve of goin' at
'em like I took the fruit's
Huh, yeah, I'm still fresh in my prime (Yеs)
A diamond in the rough that
Was so destined to shinе (Shine)
I gotta think twice when I
Pull this weapon of mine
'Cause no amount of money ever
Bought a second in time (That's true)
Yeah, that's how I question your mind (Mind)
You only see my moves
I talk less than a mime
If that's the line to cross
I'll calmly step to the line
And blow it right in your ear
Like Lance next to LeBron but let me digress
(Yes) I ain't sleep
I'm just tryna let my eyes rest
Now what I'm gon' scribe next?
Y'all niggas softer than a bride's dress
Thinkin' that you suited for these
Streets with no ties left my guess?
(Guess) You was probably stuck
On the porch (Uh, huh)
Your moms called you in when it's
Time to fuck with the chores but, me
I kept a big-ass gun stuffed in my drawers
Them bullets left no trace
So it was nothin' to draw (Yes, sir)
I always thought if you had
To suffer you poor (Why?)
Until I seen a rich man put one under his jaw
I studied the human mind and
It's never fun to explore
But it's funny what you will find when
The cup has nothing to pour (Damn)
Yeah, I don't think they want me to score
(Nah) they tried to lock me out, but my
Foot was stuck in the door, or
(yeah) success'll just never come
So to get what you never had
Gotta do what you've never done (yeah)
I took some time off then I
Went on a clever run (Uh, huh)
Classic after classic
The best to be yet to come (It is)
Yeah, now my heart is forever numb
Now tell me who's the emcee that'll
Cause the reverend to run? (Who?)
Shit, I'm just tryna measure the sum
And add it to the total
Of every pleasure to come
I came from a mindset where you
Had to treasure the slums
So you joke on my dark nights
And I Heath Ledger your son (Ha ha)
I just had to smirk
These last couple years I done added worth
Survived like magic, jerk
Came from a place where the addicts lurk
Now I'm on a flight out to Paris first
Before I hit Carrick church church
I pray you niggas realize what's
Been afforded to ya (yeah)
You need light in that dark alley?
I brought it to ya free of charge (Free)
I gave you game when you gambled
Then you beat the odds i gave you pain
They in shambles when they see a scar
(Facts) now say my name, when you say it
Say that he's a god (I'm a god)
How you gon' tell me what I shouldn't do
