JID
Through the Sky
[Verse]
Confidence is the food to a wise man, but liqour to a fool
True, I had the juice since a likkle bitty yute
The likkle root that grew maneuvered the manure, the poo, the press, the pride, the prayers, the proof
I shook it loose of everything I thought I knew
Had to unlearn, rewire 'cause the fires regrew
I been aloof, I been alone, but now it's time to regroup
Look at the timе, rhymin' as simple as tyin' his shoe
They say thе Devil's in the dirt, I found diamonds
My mama say it's Devil's in the church, but you been preachin' with the Zealots, the converted
Yo purpose got a purpose, you been on the search
You been hurt by people that's bein' hurt, but who could do worse?
One person, Black man, first Earth birth
Evil lurkin' in the curtains, squirtin' at your work shirt
It's no detergent if you undergo the current
You a cowardly, dawg, I wouldn't encourage it
Certainly pertinent information observin' the surface got me berserk
This n***a copped the dirty thirty and he poppin' that perc
For brekky, lunch, dinner, dessert
But smirched the good name of the family, pops was always at work
He went to rob another robber then got found in the dirt
He got it popped then shot the cop, the partners thought he was turnt
Google search, a n***as service was purpose
Upperclass, middleclass attracted to the bad shit
Runnin' rabbid, then you blame it on some rap shit
There's lies in the library, they cappin' in the captions, fasten your seatbelt
Fascism is just a fashion that's formidable for you to walk the hill until your feet melt
[Chorus]
Run, baby, run, baby, run 'fore they getcha
Oh, man, they gotcha, now smile for the picture
Run, better run from they gun 'cause they comin' for you
Run, baby, run, baby, run 'fore they getcha
Oh, man, they gotcha, now smile for the picture
Run, better run from they gun 'cause they comin' for you
