jesterflows - the appeal (remix of no role modelz by j. cole) lyrics

[verse 1]
i scrolled through the holiest scriptures
studied the prose to scope the cons in it
was confident i’m competent
in conquering the common sense
the consequence of complicated contemplation
concentrated, consecrated, conscious efforts
shepherds no better than the tended flock
led them by the letter to the desert
generations lost
representing god, but lacking knowledge and credentials
overzealous and contentious
overselling their potentials
so who am i to play the nemesis?
a pessimist with blemishes
i’ll preface with my genesis
i wasn’t always -n-lytical
was reverent to the biblical
i’m cutting this umbilical
was born again a new man in my early adolescence
preaching from the television got me interested
gifted with the great i am…
a sinner intercepted
drowning in the sound waves, my blessed intervention
had to pause and just breathe
leagues be deeper than my fathoms
and i started spitting water swallowed at my baptism
kept my craft drifting
dipping my toes in the cold stream
now it’s full steam
rowing with pulpits, the whole scene
church

[bridge]
no love for the godless system
no love for these thoughtless droves
role models rep bad religion
fat sheep can’t recognize goat

[hook]
don’t save ’em
they won’t wanna be saved
don’t save ’em
they won’t wanna be saved
don’t save ’em
they won’t wanna be saved
don’t save ’em
they won’t wanna be saved

[verse 2]
true faith healers lead the way right now
’cause most church leaders facetious
i’m speaking of the few of the elitest ever reaching up
and teaching us the evils of believing we achieve enough
too many prophets gossiping and politicking
profiting off gospel of prosperity
a heresy
preposterous celebrities
parodies of legacies
reflecting not their legendary ancestries
deceptively, the devil’s in the chemistry
take it from me, don’t sip, i spill it
no will to chill with spirits
don’t deal with the still, dismiss ’em
i’m real with the quill, explicit
won’t kneel to a filthy system
a field that feels like a prison
resistance k!lling ambition
debilitating their wisdom
they’re smitten, fits of belligerence
manipulation of children
i’ve quit this sinister mission
snippet of me in the beginning
a sinner, stripped of his lineage
and fitting in with the image
spitting, skin was the difference
and living in a position
that’s distant from tribulations
persisted by inst-tutions
i step in for visitation
respecting this sacred ground
all these clowns are behaving reckless
protective, i lay ’em down

[bridge]
no love for the godless system
no love for these thoughtless droves
role models rep bad religion
fat sheep can’t recognize goat

[hook]
won’t save ’em
they don’t wanna be saved
won’t save ’em
they don’t wanna be saved
won’t save ’em
they don’t wanna be saved
won’t save ’em
they don’t wanna be

[verse 3]
the scholarly or sovereignty
they’re jokes without the comedy
forefathers taught us properly, apocalyptic prophecies
like crop stripped from the knowledge tree
now quality of artistry is lauded as anomaly
we owe the pops apologies
their progeny’s propagating fodder feed
monetized monotony through audio lobotomy
abolish their philosophy
the fault is in astrology
follow not mythology but god
and god is calling me to body diabolically
obfuscating conflagrations
dropping on the congregation
dominating compet-tion
populating mausoleums
skipped the talking bush and bullsh-t
chose to follow my own wit to master my craft and hone it
i pastor the m-sses
hold up
does god and his lot condone it?
acknowledge that i’m devoted or cl-ssify me opponent?
recognize i am potent
could step aside as atonement
to spare their lives if i want but
i’m weaponizing this moment
exorcising you demons
evangelizing to heathens
no appet-te for prestige, it’s beneath me to seek allegiance
up and above like a halo over their heads
shedding light upon the industry
the ministry is scared
and i’m its nemesis
escalate my eminence
i’m pestilent to evanescent petulance
this eloquence is execution
please excuse my egotism
i am what they aim to be
if i ain’t have no faith in me
then blame it on my atheism
