leland philpot - curtis lyrics

verse 1:
as a kid growing, a lot of things i wanted to know then
teacher had spoke and my mind got open
but then i started smoking, eyes stayed closed
couldn’t see me curving away from my straight road
i was trying to fit in, feel pleasure
peer pressure, but i couldn’t steer next to
the drank and weed, so i had to gracefully take my leave
from this world, now these atheists hate my themes
looked in the mirror felt sick of being a bad man
trials humbled me i thought i was a bad man
finally learned to let go of the past
god touched me, suddenly i’m up for a task
ain’t let off, to get strong i pressed on
checked wrongs, confessed psalms and went on to the next song
criticize for my beliefs, but i faithfully speak
only god could be the making of me

hook:
hoping y’all can hear the p-ssion of my labor in booths
the m-sses tricked by dudes that’s faking the truth
it ain’t the drugs or the swag, and it ain’t ya shoes
ask yourself what are the makings of you, of you
felt a spiritual epiphany while playing this beat
young brothers dying trying to get cake from the street
after study and meditation it was plain as can be
i done seen the makings of me (in my heart y’all)

verse 2:
seeing mother’s hustling, everybody want a name
when you put that love in it, that is what’ll make a change
inside is the covenant, truth is what becomes of it
fall sometimes but the light is what the son’ll give
pain in the prayer makes you prepared
such a shame to be scared, we don’t need fear
need courage and comp-ssion, curbing my actions
that lean toward the flesh ’cause the spirit’s what i’m after
it’s not weakness when you’re loving your fellow man
the thing is to be meek, like strings in gepetto’s hands
more like pinocchio is molded by the holy ghost
committing to the narrow road, that’s for you to know
your force of will, it’s important to be still
god speaks into your mind and in your heart you feel him
racism being taught when it’s supposed to be gone
by not acting right a t home, not black and whites alone
battle through the bias, you not cattle or confined
to any trap that the mind do, travel through your trials
trying ain’t applying, fight to be compliant
let that light shine in, we all have -ssignments
why is your heart sick and you waste time denying?
what? god can’t make science?
the kingdom ain’t mindless and it’s taken with violence
zion is for climbing, if you ask him you will find him
