corey paul - what do you see? lyrics

what do you see? lyrics
[verse 1 + corey paul]
my mama calls me corey
partner calvin calls me king
my wife, she calls me her baby
some people call me cp
my granny calls me march 10
my auntie calls me free
my homies call me in crisis
but paul calls me unrighteous
no one understands
it’s not one of us who sees
altogether turned aside
and become merciless to he
no one does good
no, nada, not one
our throats are open graves
we deceive with our tongue
venom in our grill
whole mouth full of bitterness
j+swift to shed blood
hat full of misery
k!lling me and k!lling you
that’s why we call it getting saved
altar call, and you come
that’s what we call center stage
[pre+chorus + dwania and corey paul]
(hold on) my daddy hung from a rope
(hold on) my mama held a handful of pills
(hold on) my family in and out of prison
and i’ve destroyed women over the years

[chorus + dwania]
tell me, what do you see?
when they’re thugging and they’re hustling
and they’re running so hard in these streets
when i look at them, i see me
what do you see?
when these babies having babies
and the babies need something to believe
when i look at them, i see me

[verse 2 + corey paul]
dirt get all tied
full of pride, peep the lies, yeah
i liked my inner hate
then fell behind the spots, look
cuz, i know what it is
to swim from the bottom deep
south park, third ward
gomorrah inside of me
the problem ain’t fit the equation
it’s equated to a combination
of bases displayed on the daily
high teen pregnancy rates
and crack in the early ’80s
to cvs cases
and generational complacency
so aim at me if you wanna take a shot
and send it, i am saved
not aware of my little homie’s repentance
slightly winded, but we’re sprinting
interceding for my kinsmen
fast living comes expensive
’til life’s over, play the instrument
[pre+chorus + dwania and corey paul]
(hold on) my daddy hung from a rope
(hold on) my mama held a handful of pills
(hold on) my family in and out of prison
and i’ve destroyed women over the years

[ending + corey paul]
they say she’s wretched
yeah, she’s wretched, so what?
sodom and gomorrah
we’ve been wretched from the jump
they say they’re thugging
yeah, they’re thugging, so what?
cain k!lled abel
we’ve been thugging from the jump
they say they’re sinning
yeah, they’re sinning, so what?
genesis one
we’ve been sinning from the jump, but
in god we trust
whole city’s getting touched
’cause we’re looking like them
while he’s looking at us
[instrumental]

in god we trust
whole city’s getting touched
’cause we’re looking like them
while he’s looking at us
