lyrics

-Hook-

This that something for your soul, let's your heart thrive
This that music let you know that we alive
Now let it ride, let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
Let it ride, let it ride, nah nah nah

This that something for your soul, let's your heart thrive
This that music let you know that we alive
Now let it ride, let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
Let it ride, let it ride, nah nah nah

-Verse-

If I held an introduction it would go right here
All sorts of crosses in your sky, Positive A+mosphere
In three years I may be idle in my rocking chair
Looking back, thinking back, way back, when I used to rap
But I'm here in the now offering my service
However you wanna equate I fulfill my purpose
Shake out a verse like I'm nervous, mad I ain't beat the graduation
When I should of call me Curtis
There's still a child deep down in my innermost
A boyish inner ghost seeking out the love of folks
We all put our big clothes on and try
To make a way for ourselves and to provide
Judge me now or when I'm gone, I will not resent
Even through your criticism I see good intent
I see your pain and whether you believe I know
Just the way you feel right now on the low

-Hook-

This that something for your soul, let's your heart thrive
This that music let you know that we alive
Now let it ride, let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
Let it ride, let it ride, nah nah nah

This that something for your soul, let's your heart thrive
This that music let you know that we alive
Now let it ride, let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
Let it ride, let it ride, nah nah nah

-Verse-

I couldn't save you shit, can't even save myself
Only when a nigga down, does he ask for extra help
You've been given thought and I've been given a lot
I'll be peaceful in my plot, no shaking the locks
Send me to Shale, or Hell, or where you think I should
I should still be in the Book of Life, knock on wood
Speaking facetiously your preachers couldn't teacher me
Couldn't reacheth me, lay hands but I still stand
You can't out Peter Pan this lost boy
Ain't messing with the man with the drive of a Trans Am
I say God damn, assuming that God can
Searching for miracles, full hard drive scan
Every man's destiny will be realized
Try to run from it, but your shoes tied
To each other, I don't rhyme to make my lines cute
Sugared up, Glitter & Passionfruit

-Hook-

This that something for your soul, let's your heart thrive
This that music let you know that we alive
Now let it ride, let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
Let it ride, let it ride, nah nah nah

This that something for your soul, let's your heart thrive
This that music let you know that we alive
Now let it ride, let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
Let it ride, let it ride, nah nah nah
