king sol - salvation lyrics

[intro]
what if this is the beginning of the end?

[verse 1]
yeah, i was lost on the upper end
manhattan a long way from the box they wanna put me in
i’m convinced i wasn’t conceived for making friends
i’m convinced that i’m the legend that’ll make it in
i grew up where we only saw a certain type of artist
lil wayne, eminem yeah that’s just what was charting
my favorite artists ain’t popped all we heard was struggle
no one was telling the kids how to bust out of the bubble
don’t get me wrong i respect them for telling their stories
but i don’t need to hear about your seven shorties
i heard it sonically shift when drizzy linked with 40
now rappers care about their fans and they watch rick and morty
i learned you’ve gotta work your way into the conversation
i learned that being humble’s better than just being patient
i learned that there isn’t always a way to feel elation
i learned the train was gonna leave the station

[hook]
i need salvation
if i were gone would they be able to tell?
i need salvation
somebody save me i won’t save myself
i need salvation
if i were gone would they be able to tell?
i need salvation
somebody save me i can’t save myself

[verse 2]

i was found when i took control
san francisco still the only place that i managed to chase a goal
i had the cards but repeatedly opted to fold
like it was ‘49 i ‘spected to stumble on gold
but it’s a process and i’m barely getting started
like leonardo in 2006 i been departed
i been the hardest i been putting out these alb-ms
and i’m still the only person deserving of being called the smartest
but when i started i was just a kid up on a mission
yeah when i started i would only talk ‘bout how they’re sipping
now i support the positivity
i will not cut others down
i will only show them the way that we’re living
and i’m still looking in the rearview
but now i start to let a tear through
cause if i have to sell myself to a profession
and i have to give up rap to someone else i’ll throw a spear through, cause

[hook]

[bridge 4x]
tell me what’s, tell me what’s, tell me what’s, tell me what’s…
(ahhhhh)
tell me what’s lost in the light, tell me what’s lost in the light

[transition]
i need, i need, i need, i need

[hook]
