Yo I've spent a lot of time on my knees
Begging, praying to the Lord, crying out for a sign of relief
But every time he sends me something I get stubborn I decline and repeat
(Urgh) You can't alter the truth
Never bow before man but an altar will do
Tryna hide and seek comfort's a faultful pursuit
Living in the shadow of the man I'm tryna be for so long I neglected issues I should've prioritised
Took a little trip within myself and had to violate my ego and pride 'cause they should've been demoralised
It's been so long since I dug deep how'd it take a drug to make my face it all I'm horrified
My body is the shell that I'm living in tell me how the f*ck I let my soul get fossilised
I've seen Christ on the cross
I couldn't give a f*ck if bruddas like me or not
I know where I stand with the devil he tries me a lot
On everything I love it's more than likely to flop
My spirit isn't suttin that I can sign on the dots
I'm tunnel visioned I cannot be enticed with a lot
Like Sodom and Gomorrah I've got the fire and it's hot
This scotch bonnet pepper's not for the rice in the pot
I've been in need of a reason
The beast has awoken, agree to allegiance
Arrhythmia my heart's unevenly beating
And can feel it I really preach when I'm speaking
Assigned to a role from my birth so I'm leading
He raises the weak when he reaches beneath him
Arabian meaning engraved to the deepest
My mother's clued up the name's Malik for a reason

I'm on a mission I don't know how much time's left
I wasn't given a textbook, everyday's like a salsa class am I taking the right steps
We stay firm in crisis, and embrace silence
And spin right back round whenever we digress
The truth we ingest but struggle to digest
Read the signs it's all spiritual guidance
(Transition)

I had a conversation with Shey it made me feel less strange
My big sister's like an angel with so much grace
It's been 4 months since we came face to face
We both came up differently but we think the same
She tried to break the wall down and I felt so much shame
I couldn't even open up I guess I know my lane
I'm not used to people really tryna hear my heart
So I just said I'm doing gravy and it's all okay
I spent the day before high and I was off my face
I was doing A class but it was not cocaine
Psychedelics had me questioning this whole damn realm
My godfather once told me that reality's fake
The kingdom that I'm in search of hidden within
I really need to detach and not give in to sin
My addiction to porn made me feel like a mess
I was a slave to bare flesh and feeling skin
I've gotta lay it all down and be an open book
I'm tryna lead by example how can I be a leader if I'm scared of criticism, taking stones and hooks
Temptation all around me I was prone to look
I saw the light at the end of the tunnel
I'm well aware every single road has its puddles
Challenges, struggles, a whole lot of stress but we're Still Breathing so I know that we're blessed
