"A New State Of Grace" lyrics
Slaine & Statik Selektah Lyrics
It's a new state of grace with the executioner excellence
Dedication and destiny, restitution and pestilence
Alignment with the universal truth and law
That you can burn it down and build it back again to lose it all
But you can never really lose it if it's truly yours
That's your essence, yours truly George, winter couldn't cool me off
Blessings of created forces set me on a meteoric rise
It's a day to prosper, this is what you see before your eyes
Those betrayals brought me pain, but those tears taught me well
I prayed for more fire, and those years brought me hell
I guess it's just the stresses from the pressures of the devil
Or the evils and deceptions they just tested on my mettle
But now I'm on the edge of something special
I'm emerging as a victor from the sickness and these demons that I wrestle
It was dark before the dawn and that brutal night of the cold
But I'd awaken to the sun with a truer sight to behold in gold
I been to places that there ain't no coming back from
Then took a different path, built another platform
They thought that they left me for dead but got the facts wrong
Now I'm coming back for 'em, and I'm in a new state of grace
And so the world's not at all what it seems
After we fall, we evolve with our dreams
We built those bridges better, look at what we did together
They say no one lives forever, but I'm in a new state of grace
Tryna get that feeling in my bones again
I can feel my focus getting sharper, now I'm honing in
Been cast out and thrown in sin, for years I've been my only friend
I stand here alone but I can still find my atonement in this zone I'm in
Filled with defiance but still arriving at humble
You learn to ride and you rumble when you survive in the jungle
Take a dive and a tumble, finding God in this hunger
It's like I'm out of my mind holdin' all this pride and this thunder
Inside of my insides, it's like I'm still waging a war
Back in this trap, wrapped in this wrath, I'm caged in it all
Angles until I'm lashin' back with an amazing assault
Tame as it ever was, insane how I still change the results
My intuition is still battin' a thousand
Plus my sense of business is runnin' laps 'round you motherfuckin' mental midgets
Once you been through this shit, you can see that there's no ending
Isn't no coming back from where you been to livin' in a state of grace
I been to places that there ain't no coming back from
Then took a different path, built another platform
They thought that they left me for dead but got the facts wrong
Now I'm coming back for 'em, and I'm in a new state of grace
And so the world's not at all what it seems
After we fall, we evolve with our dreams
We built those bridges better, look at what we did together
They say no one lives forever, but I'm in a new state of grace
Dedication and destiny, restitution and pestilence
Alignment with the universal truth and law
That you can burn it down and build it back again to lose it all
But you can never really lose it if it's truly yours
That's your essence, yours truly George, winter couldn't cool me off
