"Jesus Shuttlesworth" lyrics
Oswin Benjamin, Marlon Craft & PoetiCS Lyrics
Please keep that weak shit from me
I don't need that
You can keep that
I been on my shit already
Even in the major leagues, still a walk in the park for me
I made it out of the dark, it's not enough
The fuck do you want from me?
Please keep that weak shit from me
They ain't pay attention to the thesis
It's the return of Shuttlesworth, black Jesus baby
Still listen to Jay Electronica, free my thoughts
And still a tug of war with my means versus my wants
Hard for simple minds to find genius in a savant
Stand-in on both my words, no italicizing the font
Surrounded by debutants, claiming they confidantes
Y'all can't exist in my ambiance
If I'm bein' honest, my environment made leviathans
Had to see monsters grow here without
Fellas look for God inside Riker's then find enlightenment
Got most of they questions answered on the island like Iverson
I grew up round quiet girls like Mariah Carey
And those who let the choppers sing with no license to carry
In the metropolis where spouses get traded for the block
And vows get exchanged for ungodliness
Found god in silence and operated in opulence
Built with some real ones in a world full of counterfeit Washingtons
It's deeper than rap
Hard to feed the people fiction who believe in the facts
I'mma leave it at that
For what it's worth, the second coming of Shuttlesworth
The people screaming "Jesus is back"
I been on my shit already
Even in the major leagues, still a walk in the park for me
I made it out of the dark, it's not enough
The fuck do you want from me?
Please keep that weak shit from me
They ain't pay attention to the thesis
It's the return of Shuttlesworth, black Jesus baby
I gotta get drunk to cry so I don't judge myself
Definitely think I'm kinda cool, tryna love myself
Try lending hands to a few that didn't want my help
I tried to recommend a path, they didn't want my yelp
Can't say I ain't try, the answer's in their ojos like
I see the A in they I
Lotta cats get the platform just to tell stadium lies
While we clap for 'em and wait for their gravely demise
Wanna ride to the top, what's the shuttle's worth to you?
Tell me what is learned to you?
We was cheating in class, dudes got decent in math
But can't imagine what some decency'd add
Or what beef on some track
Shoutin' "go ahead King!" but commit treasonous acts
Dreamin' of stats and only record broken is me repeating the facts
Tryna live in the present, not drown in the future
But still knee-deep in the past
So let's just leave it at that
I been on my shit already
Even in the major leagues, still a walk in the park for me
I made it out of the dark, it's not enough
The fuck do you want from me?
Please keep that weak shit from me
They ain't pay attention to the thesis
It's the return of Shuttlesworth, black Jesus baby
I don't need that
You can keep that
I been on my shit already
Even in the major leagues, still a walk in the park for me
I made it out of the dark, it's not enough
The fuck do you want from me?
Please keep that weak shit from me
They ain't pay attention to the thesis
It's the return of Shuttlesworth, black Jesus baby
Still listen to Jay Electronica, free my thoughts
And still a tug of war with my means versus my wants
Hard for simple minds to find genius in a savant
Stand-in on both my words, no italicizing the font
Surrounded by debutants, claiming they confidantes
