b3ric - sacrifice lyrics
[verse 1]
i don’t have to be doing any of this
i don’t have to be writing any of this
don’t have to be recording or producing
could be trying to entertain wit’ seducin’
i’m taking shots my brain is my vest
can’t be any less with the very best
so i need revival inside and out my town
but i can’t save you from going down
[chorus]
i can’t save you, from spilling facts or cap
can’t save you, from gettin’ caught inna trap
can’t save you, i was young, talking back
can’t save you, from talking behind a back
i can’t, can’t save you, not meant to do so
can’t save you, if you tryna do evil and show
can’t save you, y’all gon’ see things not nice
i can’t, can’t save you, i’m not your sacrifice
[verse 2]
you can’t say your just like me
you haven’t done things like me
telling thesе tales for those doing time in thе cell
i went from h+ll, to livin’ well
got no time for them tricks who say my name in vain
i’m heavy in the game+no pain but i gain
so much, i just want to follow the righteous will
but will i ever make it happen so i can chill
with people that love me away from opps
trying to receive the produced fruit that he drops
i’m talking about all of his blessings
will i get less should i get to confessions
to the royalty got loyalty to the royalty in my chest
war and peace inside outside to the east and west
give us hope love and faith run down our face
as long as i’m running in this race i—
[chorus]
i can’t save you, from spilling facts or cap
can’t save you, from gettin’ caught inna trap
can’t save you, i was young, talking back
can’t save you, from talking behind a back
i can’t, can’t save you, not meant to do so
can’t save you, if you tryna do evil and show
can’t save you, y’all gon’ see things not nice
i can’t, can’t save you, i’m not your sacrifice
[verse 3]
they sacrificin’ to demons and not to god
partic+p+ting with demons not sermons it’s odd
you can’t drink from two cups at the same time
can’t share the lord’s table and the table of crime
trying to provoke him to be jealous?
you stronger than him when you cuss and l+st?
it’s heaven or h+ll, freedom or jail
when things get hard go tell or else your fail
and fall into an ocean that you can’t swimmin’
so startin’ tonight, i’ll only talk about one woman
besides karma, and, my mama
talkin’ about the one to get me outta trauma
i can’t die for you+i can only die for me
an’ once i die i won’t die for all eternity
once my lights go out i’ll have a spark
if you have enough faith there’s light in the dark
so be it that’s what i pray to all men (amen)
i swear they only listen when it’s the very end
no swearing tonight but i’m just saying the truth
checking the perspective from behind the booth
cuz people don’t ever see no sacrifice
everything ever done has come with a price
so imagine reviving everyone you’ll never meet
coming out the tomb raisin’ out of the 6 feet
[chorus]
i can’t save you, from spilling facts or cap
can’t save you, from gettin’ caught inna trap
can’t save you, i was young, talking back
can’t save you, from talking behind a back
i can’t, can’t save you, not meant to do so
can’t save you, if you tryna do evil and show
can’t save you, y’all gon’ see things not nice
i can’t, can’t save you, i’m not your sacrifice
[outro]
why are we the way we are?
we were made to be free and made to love
but why can we be so selfish towards one another
so much so that we take the lives of the
people around us
it makes us hopeless when you give us hope
it makes us faithless when you give us faith
it makes us loveless when you give us love
your sacrifice saved us but now we aren’t save
from everyone all around us
but what will the sacrifice of everyone do
are all of us able to change who we are?
how is everyone gonna explain that to the—+
