Hallelujah
Lord have mercy on my soul, they try pin a .30 on my bro
There's still food being served beyond the stove
Mama got vertigo but still heard me coming home
Just before Ruth died she made a scarf for me
I'm wearing this scarf right now, it's like a part of me
It's like I'm alive and well without a main artery
Sick thoughts but alive and well arguably
Staff meetings with myself me myself and I been arguing
So even when I win I lose an argument
These people call you bro but there's no love
It's your own blood they want bath you in
A youngin' got touched and they reckon it was lethal
That kinda news got me checking on my people
I can't turn a ho into a housewife but I can turn a good girl jealous and deceitful
If nanny would've came here and they sent her back
Then I would've grown up in the same place as Dexta Daps
Still, I was disciplined with a heavy hand
I lost my mum's mum but somehow I got plenty grans
My blessing is raining (it's raining)
Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
My blessing is raining (it's raining)
Hallelujah (raining, raining)
Hmm, I came a long way I always knew that I would make it out someday
Them tried to put me under-ground, subway
The ghetto full up of vampires and zombies
They wouldn't mind fi see you inna fridge
Them woulda push you off the ridge
Just look a light fi bridge ('cause, wey)
Always can trust a friend fi get you in a fuckrey
Ya dun know
I'm with a bag of shooters when I skrrt
I still sing Hallelujah in the church (Hallelujah)
I told my girl put this bag of Buddha in her purse
Obviously, you can assume I'm being searched
The pistols are near, the crystals are clear
Magazine with me, I got issues I swear
Man are telling stories I don't think you was there
That's why you can't believe everything that you hear
When Wallace died I got a phone call
When Warren died I was local
Sometimes, I'm just dealing with the trauma
I cannot prioritize being social
Stripes, no tears on my shoulder blades
Play the hand I was dealt with a poker face
We was trying to get this capital
I ended up in crown court 'cause it wasn't a lowercase
A lot of great moments I couldn't even process
'Cause every time I've had a platform, I've had to protest
I went against the grain and it slowed down my progress
But I got God in my court, let me show them
My blessing is raining (it's raining)
Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
My blessing is raining (it's raining)
Hallelujah (raining, raining)
Hmm, I came a long way I always knew that I would make it out someday
