shawn may - metanoia lyrics
[verse 1: elijah quinton]
we ain’t taking ls
names still ringing even if they take the bells
n+ggas still waiting in line, no need for faking your prime even if your stakes on decline
no longer a slave when you master your mind, faster the climb when you find that you taxing your time
i maximize my opportunity to lead the sheep
i give them what they could be
we need more than a peep and that’s on g
i plant my feet where it’s fertile, now every verse i speak is worthwhile
thеy tried to beat me but they couldn’t curse the earth child
they tried to keep me but my soul help me emerge proud
that’s the god in me
i see the fraud in you
your mirage a fluke, i bless my heart with truth, now my harvest due
that’s that hard+work, i put my art first
i rise like the burch and my feet in the dirt
[bridge: elijah quinton]
and i’mma come running fast, i ain’t coming last
a n+gga gon do the dash
the way i’m moving, know i’m zooming, they like who is that?
i leave you in the past, i’m focused on my craft and i’mma come running fast, i ain’t coming last
a n+gga gon do the dash
the way i’m moving, know i’m zooming, they like who is that?
i go to the max, i won’t fall on my ass
[verse 2: shawn may & jc herring]
ay, sole flying
running through the clouded mind
fantasizing profit
open to a lot of grind
stories told frequently
haphazardly binding
to be honest, break needed
superseding truth
been aloof for many years
blame the idol that i had become
turn tide from the slum
metanoia, redemption the main road
coursing woes deep in soul
coming close
channeling the feeling to boast
willie warfield, ol’ man river
just consider this an omen
of the rising to come
the positive one (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
the positive one (yeah, yeah, yeah)
[verse 3: jc herring]
the positive one
is just a goal of what i want to be
they say to get what you want without effort is a luxury
but also fictitious
some think outside of reality
ain’t no shortcuts or gimmicks
ya know, bullsh+t got a limit
you can’t be trapping for a year and then start asking for picket fences
unless you move weight and constantly moving in caution
slowing progressing into the man that i wanna be
metanoia, metanoia
the journey i seek
20 plus years breathing and dreaming
many times have felt undefeated
even the humble get cheated
ya know, the one always watching me
my god, my god, my god
he show me grace and show mercy
he said cut the facade
n+gga you ain’t me, just a piece
even though you tall, you still small
get yo head out the clouds
then nothing was the same
pray that i make him proud
is he smiling or crying when i am smoking my loud?
i pray that i make him proud
i pray that i make him proud
is he smiling or crying when i am smoking my loud?
paranoia
need some closure
