Wake Up In The Morning

impromptu
(verse1)
I wake up in the morning
Checking who checking up on me
I check out my Twitter feed
And Facebook, no mentions of me
Checking if I missed a text,
Nope
No phone calls man what's up with that
So I go up to the stu,
Do what I normally do
Go over a couple of scripts
Seeing what I can come up with
Sometimes I get lonely as sh
Yea I get lonely as sh
So I reach out to my brothers
But I ain't on they level I struggle
Most High got me in a Conundrum
It don't even feel like I'm conscious
Swear though it feel like I'm cursed
Seeing this life pass before me
Trying jump in but I just end up groping
Hoping against what occurred
You know, how our forefathers swerved
Out the way of understanding
They ain't wanna keep no commandments
So the Most High turned us into walking dirt
(verse 2)
Sending up my prayers fervent
Dear Father, thou awesome enormous
Yo name hallowed I will not utter it
Please Protect me from destruction
Lead me not to self destruction
My flesh tend to like what it likes and that's nothing
knowing these idols are nothing
Vanities vanities all of its nothing
I think to myself im disgusted
If it's not about you it's disgusting
No idle talk, dog I can't touch it
You ain't talking bout the kingdom then ain't no discussion
Let me not have respect of person
Accepting a man gainst my person
Trimming my ways cuz I'm searching
For love Lord yea I'm fighting that person
Dear Lord I'm fighting these urges
But I get strong knowing its the serpent
Cuz he can be defeated
You just gotta prove you want it
Just gotta prove who you honor
Is it the Lord or yo stomach

impromptu
(verse 1)
I can't wait till the end of the week for the sabbath day
I be geeked congregating with brothers in these latter days
It's not a pain just use the word of God it's like a lidocaine
I be getting cut but it's nothing I don't feel a thing.
I just take heed, to what's being said, so I can succeed
Instinctively wanna get niggerish no don't let that be
It pleasures me to take the correction from those ahead of me
Cause when it's all said and done I'ma come out another Me
Proud to be called my father son
Most can't see me with binoculars
Think what I speak is innocuous
Esau got they brain on octopus
Caviar lobster and Cush
Foreign cars and prostitutes
You tell em keep these laws they look at you like it's impossible
They cringe thinking his Word a fluke
Like he love more than he say he do
It plainly states he favors me
You too if you israel like me
Go to Romans 8:16
What's spoken there relates to me
The spirit bears witness with my spirit
I'm heir to the King
(hook)
We-the re-sult of-what our father did
Pro-mised he-would bring-us back-to E-gypt if
We-did not-serve him-the way-he wanted it.
And we follow our heart to this day still
repeat
(verse 2)
To this day still you wonder why we in hell,
Take a look around, yea we in hell
She enlarged herself and you can't even tell
Everything a trap everything a snare
Everything designed strictly for you to fail
The heathen keep this counsel hid between themselves
Never let them know exactly who they is
Cuz when you do this kingdom coming to an end
My God, just marvel at my God
Matthew 24:14 it go hard
What was did was only did so the nations can all acknowledge
That he real and his will gone get accomplished
Never think, my feet propped sipping on lemonade
In the shade, believe what he speak i demonstrate
Don't entertain foolishness but keep scripts in the face
Meditate on His word You been afraid

(verse 1)
unavailable
(verse 2)
See I don't know about yall,
But me Imma keep all these laws
The levitical order, nah nah that's annulled
You know temple service, temple gone
Rehearse these righteous act until he come
You ain't got that proper doctrine hold ya tongue
Saying the messiah died for us because we couldn't be perfect now the laws is done
You preaching we all can live in harmony
Hand in hand loving all our enemies
Please somebody Imma need you go and get the book and come and show me Where did Moses write it
Where did Jonah write
Where did christ recite it
Yall be fantasizing
When it come to scriptures I be analyzing
Cuz these preachers cross em up like Allen Iverson
Yall talk hard but I'm much worst
I got God wit me Yall absurd
What he den done to me, you can't do worst
What?
shoot first Yall such skirts
Claiming Yall ain't fags, butt Yall butt hurt
When the truth come out ya get cut first
He my shield and my buckler
That's why i ain't worried bout what might occur
Man I'm telling Yall prayer must work
I den been the one that wanna up first
toting toast like eggs with it
early in the morning like its breakfast
i aint know what i wanted but yet i hungered
the love i have for my people humongous
To that sinful life im unconscious
Israelite praying I'm 1/3 (Keeping laws)

intro
See I been wrong all my life, living how the Romans advised
Been doing wrong to my people, I feel so hallow inside
I did not know bout self hatred until I open eyes
I could not walk without balling if it wasn't labeled wouldn't buy it
There was this void in my being thought I could fill it with pride
I ain't got no culture they told us, so yea I took it in stride
I kept a glock for them haters, big d for these niggas wives
Just oh so proud of my foolishness, wishing niggasll try it
I knew I wasn't the tuffest, and most these niggas wasn't either
I knew they carried them eagles, so I kept one to keep it equal
See my whole conscious was rooted in the doctrine of the evil
I thought with money I'd summon thee to worship me like Jesus
Couldn't understand I was famished from the commandments I broke From all the verses I blurted contradict the Most Merciful But the Most High prophesy that one day I'll open my eyes And spread the truth of his Jubilance And curses on His kind.
impromptu
(verse 2)
See way before our birth, we was cursed in this life
And our enemies knew it, they thought they could stupify us
See what they learned from nat turner is that these niggas'll riot
So they forbid us to read, our families got divided
The prophesies as described
In the book of Deuteronomy
our kids will be given unto the hands of our enemies
That's 28 chapter, and verse 32
Drop down to 48 and tell me who that sound like to you
Who else they put in them shackles
Who else they put on them ships
Who else worked hard as we did
What we got to show for it zip
Don't want no donkeys and acres
Just wanna get close to my maker
Because right now we forsaken
This is a call from his greatness
See I don't do this a lot, cuz I used to do it fa show
But now I do it for yah, so imma do it some mo
If you ain't keeping commandments It ain't too much you can tell me Had to cut off associates And the majority of family

(verse 1)
Before we can fathom freedom
We must imagine the evil.
That's entangling us inside of this web so facetious.
We think we got one foot out, still we subject to our demons.
We never call to the Father
Cause we all blinded by Caesar.
You see the lust that's within us,
Is serving us up for dinner.
That's they way that God made it
I ain't making it up go read it.
Romans 1:26,
it's plain as day how it's written.
It's the desires inside us that make us crave the forbidden
But they say that's how he made me,
No he made you with a choice
To either do as he stated
Or what you want, it's yo choice
But us being foolish and stupid children all spoke with one voice
To be regarded popular, Look how it got us, off point
We den been through the struggle
Can't help ourself to recover.
It's like a curse has been placed on us, A certain fate we must suffer And that's so true cuz it's written In plain text you can discover.
Deuteronomy 28
for a sign and a wonder.
They said they do it for the love,
I say you don't know what love is.
It ain't that warm fuzzy sensation you feeling.
What you described is deceit
Love is Romans 13:10
And then it's 1st john
chapter 4 and verse 16
Then while you at it heed Christ, in john 7:38
We can not get caught up, in the he say and she say.
We must believe as it's written
2 Corinthians
11 and 4
They say Christ cam to unite us No,
Christ say he bout that division, you ain't know
Matthew 10:34 and 35 let you know
He seek to vary us all, against the ones we hold close
Turn our friends and our families into enemies both
Alrighty alrighty
Do it for the Almighty
They do it for the love
I do it for the Almighty
Don't matter day or night
I'm focused on the Almighty
Almighty
Almighty
(hook)
This for the nation, aye the Father he gone put us on top
Lets send him praises cuz his love for us is always nonstop
Stay in them pages meditate on his word nonstop
This for the nation, aye the Father he gone put us on top
(verse 2)
I think the whole world is crazy
Never ceases to amaze me
People so hooked on that dollar
They sell they soul for it faithfully
They allegiance to it is stronger
Than human relations
They trust in what they can measure
Like computer simulations
For every action I take
I send up praises cuz he saved me
It's not just once in a holiday
I do this on a daily
It's not a burden too cumbersome
I can not do away with
I just pray to the father
And operate in my patience
In these scripts I find solace
Honest the hate I admonish
Towards my brethren of my nation seeking him like I am
I got he eye of a lion Crouching, deceit I'm not buying
This is the season, society See the zeitgeist of Zion
This where the Iron is mired
Where all desires for hire
Where all the hatred that you displayed it ignited the fire
Yes sir the father he saw it Sat back so patient and quiet
Waiting for 1/3 to see it before the day he decide its
Time for the Persians and Meads
Son of the Romans and Greeks
To finally pay for every-thing that they got for free
It's not my words it was written, Go seek for yo self and see
And I promise, it'll do wonders for your self esteem
Turn from them doctrines of nonsense
All of em focused on profit
Not really teaching you nothing
Just milking you out yo pockets
They preach a story so polished
Talk smooth Got you astonished
Make you feel good and mushy
Must be the love of the father
Go home and still feel so hallow
Now that's the work of the Father
You think these words is felonious
Check second Thessalonians
2,11 that's for yall who love that whooping and holling
Repent or you will be demolished

If you know this to be true
And he lives in you
Now you a new man
Then raise up yo hands
Whole Israel say amen...
(verse 1)
The earth is given to the wicked ones
They archers aiming at our helpless ones
They boldly mock the day of yo return
So I know they gotta face that thermal burn
If they Israel I pray they spirit turn.
Strengthen my faith to teach the dead to learn
If it ain't glits, and tits most ain't concerned
Prolly why you say 2/3 of us gotta burn
Look at all these doctrines they speaking
Criticize the name we call Jesus
Focused on the way we should say it
Instead of the works he completed
Them be the wolves cloaked in sheepskin
Animosity what they breeding
When the word sowed they come to weed it
Hit em with the word and they fleeing
Pouting bout the way we competing
For favor
Sowing these seeds
for the savior
It'll grow in its season
Can't rush it to its completion
What you trying to usher in thesis
Like what you thee monotheist
I'm surrounded be demonic beings
But the word it purges it amen
(hook)
(verse 2)
I don't acknowledge these sovereign
Impoverished Marxists think cautiously
cause my father he polishes me to knock of these scoffers
Coffins obviously an option for pompous conscious And such that utters the none sense of Worshipping sun moon stars and the waters
Where was all these doctrines concocted,
Everything in this world so demonic
When I talk God they be like stop it
Running like speaking bout swasticks
It get depressing to watch it
Just wanna crush yo larynx and coccyx
Cuz these my people I see the evil they too sleep to spot it
Dodging the root of confusion
cause they all use to the music
Used to being used for amusement
Muses for the twisted abusers
Consumed like juices The truces useless
they worship seleucus
And all his kind Out yall mind If yall think love is the solution
First off love is not a feeling or state of mind that diminish
It's explained in 1 john 5:3 lets go by written
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments:
and his commandments are not grievous.
No they are not hard amen

impromptu
(verse 1)
Lord God have mercy and purge me from what the flesh do
Because all of these thoughts I be thinking be having me wearing two Faces, it feel like im faithless cause what my eyes do
They make me think like homie, why not you
Why not hit the kitchen, whip a brick or two
Do it just this once, nobody seeing you
You need tons of money these jobs they aint paying you
Call up yo old homies and go bust a move
People prolly hear this and gone think that im the serpent
Cuz my eyes tell me lies and they lead me into service
Cuz shawty she a cutie I wanna compliment her
But thats gone lead right back to a life of sinning
too many vile affections finessing for show
Everything we do we only do it for a show
Whats the purpose of me even talking with her
Aint gone lead nothing if it aint bout scriptures
It’s a everyday battle wit the old me,
He wanna be known even if it hurts me
Lord I cannot fight this fight all by myself
So I face the east and I seek him for myself
We posed to be a body doing different works,
But we rather be bout it putting in work
Ask us what the goal is, we gone tell you ball first
We don’t speak no English whenever the crime occurs

Perfect
03:29

Malachi 2:6
Don't listen to that devil when he say cant nobody be perfect
Christ said in Matthew 5:48
Be perfect like my father is
Who said you couldn't do it
Romans 1:25 somebody lied
Who said you couldn't do it
(verse 1)
Yea I used to be what I was used to
Straight class act, a few screws loose
And I had a tough guy complex
Carry thumper round niggas ain't want that
Had a point to prove that I wasn't hoe made
Cuz my momma raised me by her self
Had to be the man when when I was just a boy had to learn to trust in myself
So what that mean, I had to get dough
By any means like Malcolm x spoke
Cuz I'll be damn if I let em hit me all upside my head like Martin Luther king
By the age 16, man I try to flex on scene
So I Try connect with a team
With a 22 and some green in the jeans I was king to the feens
but it all was a dream because it all wasn't me,
prolly didn't even see a g
Then twan got caught with the piece.
That's a small little piece that we all get to see when we chasing this paper the mark of the beast
Either the cage or the grave that be our destiny
Why we act like we can not even see
Why we don't know where the hell we belong
We prolong our oppression though our obsession
(hook)
I'm trying to live perfect
I try and live perfect
But everybody saying Nay
You know it can't be done,
You know where you come from
You know the dirt you den done
still I'm trying to live perfect
Man who changed the truth, of what he came to do free Israel from these strangers.
Said his law was void, and we can all enjoy what our heart desire With no quarrel.
Like we can bang these sluts
Or we can bang slugs
and there's no recompense for it.
Saying cool it cool it I'm too serious
Like its all games saying ain't It just sport
Nawl,
Ain't we at the bottom all around the world
Ain't we at the top of lists of things that's not desired
Single parent, poverty, and bold face liars
I den seen it all some say they the Messiah
All the nations they despise us
Cuz the blessings of highest
Said Israel'll come together and
set the world on fire
With the truth of scripts In the midst of the north
Where the pots are seething I can hear they heart stop
Why they not breathing
They was never alive living outside this word
Prophecies being fulfilled, that's his word
And he always show his self to me.
Who?
You know the word!
And he told me it's still shelter for Israel
They calling me shareef saying gone somewhere
Trying to ridicule me I don't even really care
Cuz the goal dwell where the Most High dwell
If that ain't what you want, the only thing left is death

1 bro, 2 bro 3 bro 4
I try to teach em bout The Lord but they don't want that growth
They rather get a brick and break it down at the stove
And pray they do it all again
I swear they al so lost
-repeat-
(verse1)
It was a point, in my life I thought that I was so cold
That I could remedy it, just by buying a new fur coat
A chinchilla, rock it while
While I bake a brick at the stove
I thought breaking down bricks
Was the key to get on
But all these other thoughts wouldn't leave me alone
Like I could ball show em all I was king on a throne
I also seen niggaz don't last long
They have a short run then face jail or funeral homes
I was Cleo with the vision, couldn't see that in my future
So I took to a pad and tried pen my confusion
All that appeared was an illusion
Me advocating a life of delusion
All of that hatred I blatant spew it
Against my brother propagating
More confusion
And I had to keep it real,
cuz that's the way I represent it.
And Everything I said,
I wanted y'all to know I meant it.
Even if the statements brought my own death sentence
Who cares long as y'all knew I was really bout that business
So lost
(hook)
(verse 2)
What we really need to do is uplift each other
Why we stunt like we stunt that don't teach us nothing
We see each other in the street, we don't speak to each other
Just a stank eye, that's the way we greet one another
You get emotional niggas all in they feelings
They spend they whole day looking for a reason to spill it
The reason that, blood spill go ask Caesar borgier
That's ya grandmama god, see what he gotta say
He can't save you, it's gone continue to be that way
Cuz he that make, idols and then send them praise.
The penalty paid is maze races groping at noonday
Fear of everything have you bolting like usain
Two thangs in ya life that'll set you straight
Repent and live ya life according to His Way
This ain't hard, it ain't easy either
But it can be done, promise go ask Jesus.

Brothers deep in the streets like a G4 pilot
So high and I know why he so violent
Cuz he dealing with emotions deep down inside him
Always gotta prove he hard, why? cuz he throw salad
Cuz his momma boyfriend used to molest him
Always round some kids so they call him uncle Chester
Tried to tell his momma but she wouldn't believe him
She in love with the d so she ain't wanna leave him
Now since he told on him Chester rape him and beats him
His momma always working she don't never get see him
And his real daddy bounced after he finish skeeting
Cuz his mom was the friendly fanny neighborhood skeezer
These are the tales of the young black heathen
Never stood a chance in a world without Jesus
we ain't talking bout the same Jesus hanging from ya pieces
But the one in revelation 1 and 14
(hook)
Paper cuts
I got paper cuts from turning pages bruh
Out the book Book of life from the dead back for my second run
Waking up
Stretching forth my palms
Sending praises up
Amazing yup
It's a major must
That I raise him up
repeat
(verse 2)
Can't you see that we are how we are cause we Godless
no such thing as love, erybody heartless
Love to fight each other you get beat up if you stop it
don't nobody care they rather take they cell phones and watch it
Get a couple million and we think it's balling
Stunting on them hoes, hoes, then take em shopping
Seen a million get blowed in six months that's none sense
That's a nigga state of mind for you. Curse on us God given
God willing, we gone wake up out this foolish slumber
Get up out the trap, tryin to stack, but you stumble
We don't even try but we wonder why we in a slump though.
We just wanna be like what we see head head honcho
These are the tales of the young black heathen
Never stood a chance in a world without Jesus
we ain't talking bout the same Jesus hanging from ya pieces
But the one in revelation 1 and 14

(hook)
Same ol, everyday and every night
Cause when Them scripts come out fools get out of sight
keep my grip of kjv on tight
Cause ain't no tellin who the most high might punish tonight
(verse 1)
This type of shhh, it happens ery time I go out
Matter fact shout out to Christ cuz when I go out
It's in his name nothing Feigned this what I do now
Heathens think I'm sleeping love to catch with no script out
I'm extra with that weapon
got one kept in every crevice
You know the waist and the brain
Yea the place you most expect it
I keep a extra on me
So it won't be no guessing
When I read it you can read it
I ain't making up no extra
banging ants wit a sledgehammer
Yea that's my confession
Cuz jake think its sweet
But this ain't no confection
So I make statement bake a jake and darken his complexion
Cuz Esau wanna keep us in a yolk full Nelson
Expect for me to praise the father only nothin lesser
Cuz without Him I was just a joke so careless
Oh so zealous when I speak on his perfection
Cuz he showed me his mercy when I confessed my transgression
(hook)
(verse 2)
Every morning that I wake
I drop to my knees first
Pray to my maker thank you the first
moments of clarity nothing's rehearsed
And you know I'm blowing up my shofar
I work hard for my position in my situation
Regardless of ambition it's my demonstration
That took me from the gutter to this new location
The bible be the road map goodness gracious
How to make a move
How to obey the rules
Yea we can be perfect it's not debatable
Who to cater to
Where to pay the dues
The foundation laid we trying to build a roof
Because I figured my Ignorance was a hinderance
I gotta let go it seeking His eminence
I see the scope of the culture down to particulates
And don't think I ain't see you satan boy I stay equipped.
(hook)
(verse 3)
It never fails I always encounter Jezebels
Confusing the scriptures with how they really feel
Unless they can dominate what I'm bringing them
They don't wanna hear it rebellious as hell
Let the woman learn in silence, they ain't hearing that
You wanna teach then show the women how to bring it back (bring it back)
To the laws statues and commandments
Understand for pants there's a judgement
Another type I see is one that's listening
He partaking in the church willing participant
He look ready to show the Lord he repent
Then enter satan with a monkey wrench
Heard a script he don't like, he don't agree wit it
Mad cuz he gotta give up sausages
Pork butt hog mauls catfish
This what you'll trade the kingdom for? None sense
