Almost Home |
hold on, I say |
Night turns dawn, have faith |
We’re almost home, half way |
You be strong I pray |
We’re almost Home[Verse 1: Gem |
What they give you? |
Twenty million? |
Twelve thousand? |
A few Lamborghinis, couple houses |
Lifetime’s supply of wire cell trousers |
Got you passing turkeys out to show you care about us |
But what about the life that you promote to make us doubt us? |
Or robbing us of all our hope to sell a couple albums |
I’m sure that this would be insulting to the brother Malcolm |
And the marching that Martin thought would bring another outcome |
You’re either flying in the friendly skies with the falcons |
Or dyin' at the giant’s feet, right beside the mouse’s |
Features more than country stores and how to buy your outfit |
Why keep us numb, dumb and living on our momma’s couches? |
What have we become, I can’t believe that we’ve allowed this |
Shunned because I ain’t shooting guns and bagging ounces |
I’d rather lose my tongue and have nothing to pronounce wit |
You feel the same way, you’re just afraid to announce it[Hook: Gem |
Just hold on, I say |
Night turns dawn, have faith |
We’re almost home, half way |
You be strong I pray |
We’re almost Home[Verse 2: Gem |
They say the game is to be sold |
I could share some stories with you Lupe ever told |
From the po-lice locking Chillyup to hanging out with Hov |
To the monies that I’ve never seen off albums that were sold |
In the industry where everybody’s fighting for control |
Over pennies when they clearly should be fighting for their souls |
It stripped me of my inner peace, my energy was cold |
Imagery’s the centrepiece, was empty in the soul |
Friends become your frenemiesand spite you coz your goals |
Hurts you, coz the ones you thought would never turn to foes |
But never did I fall |
My God could open doors for me no man could ever close |
Grace always protecting me from wolves that come in droves |
Crazy how these blasphemies coz surely I’ve been chose |
My great amounts of treachery has yet to be disclosed |
And my destiny’s so checked for me, respected round the globe[Hook: Gem |
Just hold on, I say |
Night turns dawn, have faith |
We’re almost home, half way |
You be strong I pray |
We’re almost Home[Verse 3: Gem |
Had no idea that Christian rap and Gospel music weren’t the same |
I’m thinking, «What's the difference? |
They both call on Jesus' name» |
Tryna come to grips with it because it’s boggling my brain |
Who cares how you deliver it? |
You choose to rap, he choose tosing |
My only issue is you people kinda box me in a lane |
Put limits on a gift that God has totally ordained |
I’m bumping Tasha Cobbs until I’m broken from these chains |
You sure you’re doing this for God? |
Or is it really for the fame? |
Is it just a cover up to get your foot inside the game? |
And when you make it to the topthen you’ll forget from what you came? |
Are you denying the title of the genre because you’re ashamed? |
Deny Me on the earth and I’ll deny you where I reign[Hook: Gem |
Just hold on, I say |
Night turns dawn, have faith |
We’re almost home, half way |
You be strong I pray |
We’re almost Home ( |
We’re almost home |
We’re almost home, we’re almost home) X4 |
