ivy sole - kismet lyrics
[intro: james baldwin]
your education is occurring within a given context, at a certain time in history, in a certain country at a certain time in its history. in fact, at a very crucial time in its history
[verse 1: ivy sole]
me and mine got no debt to our name
we aligned placed a bet to the flame
like if the fire come
we gon’ sing ’til the e brings the burn
no such thing as a rest you can earn
there ain’t no such thing
no compensation to replace a body breathing
not a currency alive or dead to substitute the feeling
of a day well spent
or an unkempt love
every month no rent
and no push come shove
i wanna shake beneath the covers
shapeshift into a bevy of light
i wanna sink into a heavy delight
and f+ck whoever i please
come twice and smoke a gallon of tree
i want forever with you weak in the knees
every day i’m getting closer to my last breath
and everyday i see more holy in a black step ’cause
underestimation was the last flaw to lose
now you’ve seen what the masses can do, so we move, uh
[chorus: ivy sole]
you can call it the same difference
but au contraire
we don’t travel the same distance
follow the same stars or swallow the same tempest
me and my n+ggas we all kismet, what
me and my n+ggas we all kismet, who
me and my n+ggas we all kismet, what
me and my n+ggas we all kismet, w+w+what, w+w+what
[verse 2: lojii]
w+w+w+w+what
faith on me like a glock in the war
fate calling, ain’t for talking much more
it’s do or die, who on my side?
ain’t looking back i just keep walking on forward
frontline toward heaven’s gate
hope there ain’t locks on the door, but um
what’s concrete to a rose?
still on my feet i arose
round the vials and needles stuck in fiends on the floor
potholes in the road, where i plot on the low
plant my toes, pour my soul and let the god in me grow
the type of highs that feel like you brought the sky to the soles
of your feet, as clouds weep and tears seep down below
where some just sleep in a coat
or warm the house with a stove
i need that heat on me tucked
it ain’t about being cold
soon as you make you a buck
someone might buck you for yours
it’s just the way of this world
still wanna travel the globe
but where i live you might not even make it back from the store
don’t get caught lackin’, just keep stackin’ and pay back what you owe
[verse 3: lojii]
cars, clothes, and millions on our minds, yeah
land, homes, and freedom ‘fore we die here
only lord knows the meaning of this life here
try to find a peace of mind and learn to fight fear
art shows and villas on a timeshare
i’ve grown to be more picky with my time here
only lord knows the meaning of this life here
we may be one but we some 1 of 1s, it’s quite clear
[chorus: ivy sole and lojii]
you can call it the same difference
but au contraire
we don’t travel the same distance
follow the same stars or swallow the same tempest
me and my n+ggas we all kismet, what
me and my n+ggas we all kismet, who
me and my n+ggas we all kismet, what
me and my n+ggas we all kismet, w+w+what, w+w+what
[outro: james baldwin]
my responsibility to you would be to invest you with all of the morale that i could, to prepare you for the terrible storm which is called life. terrible, and beautiful. but you must know that it is both
