Atonement |
| As I wait for atonement |
| Trapped in the heat of the moment |
| Feelin like I can’t control it |
| As I wait for atonement |
| Trapped in the heat of the moment |
| Uh-huh, feelin the steam from the cauldron |
| With tension runnin deep as the ocean |
| Many are called, but so few are chosen |
| As I go through the motions, of medication uppin my dosage |
| Bangin Earth, Wind & Fire «Devotion» as I admire the focus |
| Takin the city with a grain of salt |
| Where they tastin foul, chase it down, with the latest malt — liquor |
| Roll and hit it, knife did it, hope you got some smarts wit’chu |
| Hope you got some heart it ain’t no stoppin when it start — nigga |
| Feel somethin bigger got a hold on me |
| And I ain’t trippin not a Bobby Brown, lippin with my nose runnin |
| Basically I had two, options I just chose one |
| And then got ghost, like my picture was on a most wanted |
| Coast to coast, from L.A. to Chicago |
| Now I’m faced, with the weight of survival, plus the taste |
| From the way I been lied to while the preacherman spittin his gospel |
| I can win if I try to |
| As I wait for atonement |
| Trapped in the heat of the moment |
| Feelin like I can’t control it |
| As I wait for atonement |
| Trapped in the heat of the moment |
