Royce da 5'9", Ingrid Smalls - I Promise lyrics

Yeah, yeah yeah
There's a void that needs to be
Filled inside of this marketplace
You could die in my parkin' space
My mom want me to blow up and house them
My father want me to bring
Product out without Slim
And prove them wrong, to pay my bills
I'm right on your heels, I'm for real
My shoes is long to feed my son - I will
Leave you leakin' in the street
I will heat you to kingdom come, ugh
The king will come
Wait 'til you gone in place of an
Angel appear to take you home
The beard on the face is gone
These bullets is straight
Razors, blazin' you, case in point
Amaze the rap game, make 'em point
Walk inside of the house of the
Illest and case the joint


And take whatever I want out of it
Now that I'm wise, my future rides on it
It's time for triumph
I promise - if you just let me in the game
(Pray) if you should bless me enough to let
Me reign I will contain you (Pray)
I promise - I will support
My family slash crew (Pray)
I promise - I will pray every day
I will ask you
I promise - if you just let me in the game
(Pray) if you should bless me enough to let
Me reign I will contain you (Pray)
I promise - I will stop the killin'
I will change (Pray)
I promise - I will put in this
Flow what you put in my soul

The whole misconception with me
The only thing people think that I'm
Arrogant when they don't know me
That's what it was
If I wasn't a real nigga the shit
Would not bother me but it does
The shit is not fair
Just picture yourself lookin' in the mirror
Tryna change what is not there
When niggas stop speakin'
Them phone calls get slow
I'm feelin' like Nas before
He dropped "Ether" i appear to be sober
I'mma really be runnin' over whoever said
That my career was over
Whoever gave me the cold shoulder
And turn they backs on me
I'll be blazin' you from both coasts
Believe me, I got Lil' Homie and July 6
So you funny actin' ass producers
I don't need you
You can keep yo' beats, rap for money
Fuck you and everybody else who acted funny
I promise - if you just let me in the game
(Pray) if you should bless me enough to let
Me reign I will contain you (Pray)
I promise - I will support
My family slash crew (Pray)
I promise - I will pray every day
I will ask you
I promise - if you just let me in the game
(Pray) if you should bless me enough to let
Me reign I will contain you (Pray)
I promise - I will stop the killin'
I will change (Pray)
I promise - I will put in this
Flow what you put in my soul

Uhh, I'm callin' every nigga out in the game
That tried to go against the
Fire and douse the flame
I could shout yo' name
But nobody stands out more than anybody else
You doubt the same
For every nigga that say I'm hidin'
Just because I ain't hangin' out at the
Same places I once vibed in
Everybody at my father's job
Askin' him rumors, shit
Stop 'cause my dad soon gon' quit
If I can, maybe thank him for raising me
To think like a baby gangsta, crazy temper
I paid my sentence - totalled out the prison
The game sent me
Fame owes my name plus interest
But once you strapped in to the penmanship
And the track rumbles
You trapped in this rap jungle
When you can't come through, sales or numbers
The one who prevails'll be the
One who remains humble
I promise - if you just let me in the game
(Pray) if you should bless me enough to let
Me reign I will contain you (Pray)
I promise - I will support
My family slash crew (Pray)
I promise - I will pray every day
I will ask you
I promise - if you just let me in the game
(Pray) if you should bless me enough to let
Me reign I will contain you (Pray)
I promise - I will stop the killin'
I will change (Pray)
I promise - I will put in this
Flow what you put in my soul
