Levees
[Intro]
Yeah
Rhodan

[Chorus]
Early morning, late night we pray
Loyalty hard to find these days
On my shoulder is a heavy weight
Living water 'til the levee break
Living water ’til the levee break
On my shoulder is a heavy weight
Loyalty hard to find these days
Early morning, late night we pray
Early morning, late night we pray
Loyalty hard to find these days
On my shoulder is a heavy weight
Living water 'til the levee break
Living water 'til the levee break
On my shoulder is a heavy weight
Loyalty hard to find these days
Early morning, late night we pray

[Verse]
Yeah, fame won’t ever change, what's done in Heaven's name
What happened to the game? We blind like Etta James
Wanted to spread our wings, you know, try a few different things
The left signal winked at us and we start switching lanes
We went our different ways, thought it was just a phase
Thought it was just a taste, but now it's empty plates
Everywhere, innovation which led to imitation
Sparking the sensation of wanting to be famous, we
Excuse the faith, we look to the greats for some inspiration
Paused the revelation for applause and nominations
Godless observations, trading fraud-less statements
Preemptive sentences to disarm a nation of witnesses
A form of godliness but denying the power in it
Refusing the rebuke and regard it as our business
We doing what we want with what God gave us
Knowing we was on something different when God saved us
Tempted by position and status, so our fears won't trap us
And we don't appear average, partially holy, mostly savage
Those who know me know I don't mind tucking a Rollie under my fabric
Better still, duck them bullets even when the barrel is plastic
Don't be easily fooled, that serpent cunning and crude
If we just give him an inch, he’ll stretch that length into a noose
Watch who you hanging with, they still don’t get the picture
And I just painted it, uh, framed it and shipped it, my aim is explicit
Carved out of the stone they refused, these verses are monolithic
Gifted, soul wrapped in a ribbon, tatted with scripture
Resistant to devils in blue dresses with long kisses
Strengthened by the Spirit, I'm posted with strong pivots
Put attention on forgiveness, take my focus off the critics
They love our accomplishments but hate us for our convictions
How you do it? We just trusted our true and living
Refusing to dance to confusing rhythms, it’s NFTRY
[Chorus]
Early morning, late night we pray
Loyalty hard to find these days
On my shoulder is a heavy weight
Living water 'til the levee break
Living water 'til the levee break
On my shoulder is a heavy weight
Loyalty hard to find these days
Early morning, late night we pray
Early morning, late night we pray
Loyalty hard to find these days
On my shoulder is a heavy weight
Living water 'til the levee break
Living water ’til the levee break
On my shoulder is a heavy weight
Loyalty hard to find these days
Early morning, late night we pray
