"S.O.U.L." lyrics
Some of us lose
Heaven or hell on earth you get to choose
Sometimes you must kill the fire to re-ignite the fumes
Often we lose sight of self to find a greater view
Silence in those darker rooms
The ego gets consumed
Some of us lose
Some of us lose
Just to win again
Knowing every butterfly must shed its own skin
That's when life begins
Through my suffering I been born again
Born again
Born again
Through my suffering I been born again
It's just me and you
And despite your imperfections you still pushing through
Man, look at you
Some would say it's overdue
People come, people go
Shit. That's how the story go
Win some, ya lose some
Get back up and fight for more
It's 5 AM in Saudi
Thought I'm in here doing cardio
Ritz Carlton
10th floor. Baccarat scent on
Diamond set pave
Shots of Don you know
Good kid, mad city, my dogs. They like cujo
I was in it deep playing hide-and-seek
All them painful ass lesson brought out a different beast
That trauma still reside in me
Generational curses on my family tree
Like how my pops really gon' abandon me?
Angry as adolescent
Wonder why I'm so aggressive
Healing is the sole objective
Channeling my ancestors
Loving on my queen vessel
Nurturing my kids special
Praying to a higher presence
Rising to a higher level
I mean that
You can always get some money but not your time back
My granny took her last breath
She waiting on me in fact
I know she proud though
Where your faith at?
Some of us lose
Heaven or hell on earth you get to choose
Sometimes you must kill the fire to re-ignite the fumes
Often we lose sight of self to find a greater view
Silence in those darker rooms
The ego gets consumed
Some of us lose
Some of us lose
God's strongest soldier
This the final peace I need
I hope it bring me closure
I may forgive but won't forget
They tried to fuck me over
In the faces of my struggles I still raised above 'em
I'm in a season of renewal and just pure abundance
Man, the road traveled rough and rugged
My kind ain't no dime or dozen
So much lessons in my line of hustling
But it was made to be that way
I was meant to be this great
I been favored by His grace
I repent for all my sins
I won't be turned from heaven gates
I was lonely in that darkness where my mind could not escape
It's desires in my flesh and I surrender to my fate
When I thought it was all over, I seen a light upon my face
God
How I beat the odds
Some of us lose
Heaven or hell on earth you get to choose
Sometimes you must kill the fire to re-ignite the fumes
Often we lose sight of self to find a greater view
Silence in those darker rooms
The ego gets consumed
Some of us lose
Some of us lose
Just to win again
Knowing every butterfly must shed its own skin
That's when life begins
Through my suffering, I been born again
Heaven or hell on earth you get to choose
Sometimes you must kill the fire to re-ignite the fumes
Often we lose sight of self to find a greater view
Silence in those darker rooms
The ego gets consumed
Some of us lose
Some of us lose
Just to win again
Knowing every butterfly must shed its own skin
That's when life begins
Through my suffering I been born again
Born again
Born again
Through my suffering I been born again
It's just me and you
And despite your imperfections you still pushing through
Man, look at you
Some would say it's overdue
People come, people go
Shit. That's how the story go
