Lyrics Gutter Boy - Grits

Gutter Boy

Yeah
We all look for money, power, fame, power
Let me talk to you, well on
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know you need to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know it’s best to come 'round
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know you’re expensive and tough
Gutter boy, you mix up with the wrong stuff
You might end up in the castle while your bridges on my life it’s on my body,
but are the one will bite dust
Gutter boy… watch out now
Money and the power, and the fame and the sweat
End up down the mortuary, they’re shouting out your chest
Shoot out in the town, like it’s a wild, wild west… but me bible is me
bulletproof vest — yes
Quits in all them man, just to send me upon a quest
Bring the reggae music, feed by notes, salute D Ness
In-a this your life, it come like you feel protest
Pick up your shield of righteousness — yes
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know you need to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know it’s best to come 'round
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you some as the ground
Yo
Predestined, manifesting
Learned through life’s lessons, impressing
Despite my many indiscretions, I still be blessed by his essence
I’m gonna be here 'til it’s over
Stuck in the place 'cause I fit
I beat the past so long, ain’t bucking the place 'cause it’s it
I got the troops with the flame, and it’s aimed at the youth
It’s all the same, why we came: to gather fame in the booth
A different plane was the same;
my reign is the proof
What’s to be gained?
Total things show lanyard loop
I thought them castles form a church said, «Huh,»
We ain’t ashamed;
our faith is who we are
Put up the bar which was worth getting
Vision as yet to be fulfilled and facilitated
Wishing I was open to the real and the things related
That will reveal all the blood that would be spilled while I tally up the tolls
of all the depth that I feel
See, expected moving up the block
Suspect that even though I rock you still got enough
Protected from the shock
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know you need to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know it’s best to come 'round
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you some as the ground
My life story, yo, (feel me)
I was an only child trapped between a separation
My parent’s altercation grew into incarceration
My father’s good intentions soon became my mental breaking, but I was too young
to understand the complication
And, through the pain, my mother pushed for higher education to numb the
situation through the heart determination
And, at the time, neither took the chance to give and explanation,
so I drew my own conclusion for the circumstance
I didn’t understand a man’s ways, apart from God, was the curse of bad
decisions made apart from God
And the punishment was living with the repercussions of a path left,
only meant for my destruction
I was a church boy, trying to be a gutter boy
Run around with ghetto boys, playing with the metal toys
Out to get a repertoire, trying to get that butter, boy
The life I would have settled for, but God had something better, boy,
waiting for the Carter boy
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know you need to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know it’s best to come 'round
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you some as the ground
Yo
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know you need to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know, you know
You know it’s best to come 'round
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that you some as the ground
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that used to fear it town
Gutter boy, you know you look at trouble, but you’re living in a bubble
Take off your book, and dis some Asguard ground
Gutter boy, you know that you have to come down
Gutter boy, you know that used to fear it town
Gutter boy, you know you look at trouble, but you’re living in a bubble
Take off your book, and dis some Asguard ground, yo
