jon foli - simple introduction lyrics

Loading...

erm hi
i know this isn’t the usual way people introduce themselves to you but i was thinking we could try something different
maybe i could tell you a story or two
or till i die
but before i do that, i was hoping i could tell you a bit about your storyteller today
we could call this a simple introduction

verse
the name’s jon foli
i’m far from holy
but i love the lord yeah
word to the ones that know me
i can’t embrace the nonsense
except through rhyme i find it hard to relay whatever i have laid on my conscience

its pure coincidence if you happen to relate
i speak my truth ain’t tryna be the people’s champion
i understand my rhymes be so simple
but why try to be complex, i ain’t plan to be in no contest
i’m just tryin to tell my story boy
yeah i just want to tell a story

my n-gga dean put me onto some good sh-t
barely 13, being shady was all that mattered
rooftop karaoke
i fell in love slowly, sudden addiction
i needed more, so i start experimenting

i have never been the tallest n-gga in the room
like ever
with music it always seemed like destiny you know
ever since i was a young boy, somehow i always knew that

verse
i stand tall at 5’6
alaafia ati ife, i do my best to avoid the conflicts
exhibiting god and his gifts
alaafia ati ife focused on manifesting all that he promised

pre-teen you won’t me i won’t be no priest
d-mn, a lots changed ever since my first kiss
my first i love you, my first heartbreak
my first n-gga let’s get it, my first job, my first pay – splash

music has always been liberating for me, whether i was making it or just singing along to my heroes. i always had the chance to be free and just be myself instead of always trying to find a balance and satisfying other’s expectations for my life you know
its amazing

verse
ali gee want me in that suit and tie
i could do it but i’m scared i might just gag and die
i hear a few n-ggas whisper, that i’m bound to crash
well if that’s the case then i might as well be the one to drive

a big brother and not a father to my baby sister
trust issues but my girl know i’m sticking with her
though she always surrounded by mad n-ggas
i’m that n-gga, just waiting on god to come through with hov like figures

never been shy of my christian faith
being a family guy has never been up for debate
collective success means more to me than my milestones
my homies triumphs i always celebrate

i’ll always be that quiet n-gga with a lot to say
i still believe love’s the only drug not being abused today
i think we should teach boys to be gentlemen as much as we tell off our queens
jo’s my guardian angel with no wings
