tobi smallz - devil’s work god engineering lyrics
intro
it’s devil’s work but it’s god engineering, god told me boy never deny me , cos trouble times will come , cloudy nights will surface
verse
imagine being broke , thinking life is a joke / ain getting no spark light, till you lighting a smoke / devil starring at you , while you keep tying the rope/ cos life is a road and you just riding alone / crying with hopes, of you planning to go / to somewhere you ain’t even planning to go / cooking something with no more gas in the stove / what’s left is a food for thought, the pastors serving us hope/
is either you go to church or you go to h-ll , / popo still on my -ss, thinking ima go to jail , / devil hoping if i got a pair of sole to sell /, sick of been sick and tired , i’m suppose to be well /
i’m close to a well , still i’m dying of thirst / life is a bed of roses , still i’m lying on gr-ss / life test is f-cked up , i’m just trying to p-ss / spent my life crying , hoping i be laughing at last /
but no , no no no no no / why do the good people have to go go go / more reason why i be riding on the road so low / just me , till i pull up in my ghost alone/
talk is cheap , am a shepherd who ain’t close to cattles / talk is ship still ima need a boat to paddle / a lot of folks to battle , a lot of home to value / , life a b-tch , she switched from ho’s to model /
if i’m dead , please give me back myself oh lord / lot of call to glory , i switch my cell phone off / on the road to riches , i never felt hold up / cut me off any b-tch , ain’t tryna impress no one /
trying to impress you and my family / cos any other thing is just vanity / insanity, that’s humanity / what if i’m tryna be who i don’t wanna be /
i never wanted to sing but you gave me a mic / never wanted to live still you gave me a life / thought life don’t cost a thing still you gave me a price / told me death was more costlier , so i’m staying alive /
every night i’m suicidal , but then i wake up again / i count all my losses , and then i weigh up the gain / was feeling enslaved till i break up the chain / i took my face off the pain , then i wait on the rain /
made few mistakes , but i know time will heal / that old self , is till what i’m trying to k!ll / hoping my younger brother is gonna sign a deal / up in the hill , pray my crown don’t fall off like jack and jill/
jack of all trade , guess i’m a master at all / still hoping you bring back , all the cats that had gone / bruise better than scars , reason why i plastered my sore / still praying my girl never give me a b-st-rd as son /
don’t wanna raise a slave , hoping i’m raising a king / seeing is believing , well i’m just taking a blink / life is a movie , spent my whole life creating a scene / this is god engineering i’m never praising a being /
left bad company cos i had to quit devils work / an angel spoke to me in a dream , he told me level up / get your peddles up , race till you get a medal on / cos time is money , it switch sides like a pendulum/
i’m a sucker for love , still i’m a sucker for pain / my girl wanted a head , i said i could offer a brain / she came in the bus , then we hop on a train / she my ex , i hope i could never love her again /
but i rather break a leg , than break a heart / life is a game of chance , we all play the cards / toss a coin , you can take a side / mehn been dead is the only way to erase the past /
everyday i got to war with my heart and soul /, i rise and hope , even though my nights are cold /, still living in my dreams hoping i find my home / , but reality kept saying i got a house above /
may the idols live for long , but i ain’t bowing to no gods / we don’t know you cos you ain’t planning to know us / f-ck a low budget , i ain’t signing for low cost / i do it cos i’m suppose to , while y’all trying to blow up /
devil gave you a deal , why you praising god for that / boy i bet your soul gone , you getting rubbed off that / celebrate with drop of tears , showing us a cup of gl-ss / i use to be jealous , but now am getting enough of facts /
my big hommie told me , there’s no love on the street / just bl–dy wars and guns , and stay focus on your sh-t / family first , never let no ho come in between / came out from where they thought no one would be king /
now we walking around with crowns and hand beads / i swear bro , i see them frown and feel their heart beat / they wished death on us , never knew we had found peace / one more thing , i hope i buy my mama a nice crib /
shout out to my supporters and anyone that ever bought me / shout out to those that left , and those that never forgot me / shout out to my ex’s , i mean the ones that never loved me / shout out to those who wished they gave me a kiss but never hugged me /
i’m grateful!
