Lyrics The Blessing - NICOLAY, Soul

The Blessing

There’s been alot that’s goin' on in the life and times-uh
You’re probably gonna hear it up in the rhymes-uh
But Black Thought told me to maintain my grip for just a little bit Keep it
steady, 'Breathe And Stop' with 'Tip
I’ve done the dumb collaborations with the zeros and
Experienced the let downs of some of my heroes
But I learned from the mistakes in the past
Emotional first degree
There’s bringin' out the very best and worst of me
I’m thirsty see, for that somethin' new, somethin' real
Aretha Franklin type, give me somethin' I can feel
But still, gotta keep my focused on the «who I am» and «what I do» «What I’m all about» and «who I do it through»
Did some complainin' through the reign of mental stress and strain
Try to maintain from all these MCs who won’t use the brain
Still sayin' its a shame, to be so tight when writing
Steady, but you can’t enlighten
The brothers come with weak attempts
Like Martin Lawrence in Black Knight
They get upset when we be callin' 'em wack, right?
In my opinion, it’s time to be what we cannot see on MTV
I’m with Mohammad, Dee
Let’s talk about some beautiful change a lil' bit
And cancel negativity and all that other stuff you was expecting
'cause all that’s left in
Cause and effect after the death
And strife is life
And that’s what I’m all about, affectin'
Yo, to my man strugglin' with the 9 to 5
Back out at 8 to work another job
I bless your life
And to my brother 'bout to finish up his bid
The mama all alone raisin' her kids
I bless your life
To my sister waitin' for her heart to heal
That beggar tryin' to find a decent meal
Yo, I bless you life
To everybody going through
Yo, I’m tellin' you to maintain
Is what you gotta do
So, I bless your life
It’s hard to fathom
And never insignifique sounds of science
Our everyday of reliance
While we wake up
Sometimes it’s seemingly only to take up hydrogen and oxygen
Get dressed, put on my socks again
Tie up my laces and again walk through the traces I did yesterday
Openin' up my mouth but never speaking what is best to say
Fester away my purpose under guys who know my hocus pocus
Not knowin' that this mediocrity was sent to choke us
Can you imagine all the goodness that we take for granted
Misled and misplanted by the words we said before
The blind, for sure leadin' the blind
While others spyin'
There, some are sleepin'
While their nappin', God is rappin'
Tappin' at your chamber door
Tappin' the
To see the visions unseen
And voices unheard
Confirmin' in the then from the now
When I say word, I mean (word)
Things will get better and (word)
Tomorrows brighter and (word)
You make a difference in the day
The night (word)
You’re going to make it (no doubt)
Yo, you can take it just a little longer
You can’t be faded cause you’re stronger than you think you are
Yo, you can do it star (Yo, you can do it star)
Yo, you can do it star (Yo, you can do it star)
Yo, you can do it star (You can do it star)
And to that lady who just lost her one and only
To cats that’s feelin' down and kinda lonely
I bless your life
And to my sister trying turn her life around
That’s strugglin' to put the pipe down
I bless your life
And to the younguns listenin' to all the voices
Tryna think of all the proper choices
I bless your life
To everybody going through
Yo, I’m telling you to maintain
Is what you gotta do
So, I bless your life, life
Keep your head up
Don’t you let up, yo
It’s a set up
You gotta get up
So, I bless your life
I bless your life
I bless your life
I bless your life
Aye, yo, yo, keep your head up
Don’t you let up, uh
It’s a set up
You gotta get up
So, I bless your life
I bless your life
I bless your life
I bless your life
Out
To my man Nicolay
To my man Supastition
Architect and Reach
To my man DJ Hush
Justus League rock on
to keep it moving
