Текст песни Elevation - Overtime , Rayne

A lot of pages in the scripture, I read it once
A preacher man said the lord went and sent his son
So all the sinister sinners could sit in innocence
And think about the possibilities of what it was
And I just look forward to futuristic real endeavors
Of me and all my people toasting like it lasts forever
But I just know it can leave faster than it came
So I'm just trying to seal my roof protect me from the rain
And all I really want is to see people doing better
Hardcore rap said I should be a fucking savage
Like I should have bars and talk about bitches but really
I'm not trying to be what I'm not, I got a vision
I hate rap in fact, nah take that back
I hate rappers that make the rap game look whack
But if you really ask me it's the industry I hate
Puppets on a string what's it take to be great?

So I'm gonna do this on my own
I'll see what's left when you're all alone
You can just try to hear me, take a look into the work of my dreams

So as I'm movin I'm growing, I'm at my pinnacle
I'm trying to be timeless and move hundred thousand physicals
And fuck a label I ain't selling out for shit
I'll make it all in my own and change lives with my hits
So people listening can take my shit with grains of salt
Or learn a lesson about the hatred that will paint us all
In a way I'm trying to find a way to paint us all
A bigger picture so we can all be involved
I never knew pain until I learned the joy of pleasure
I never knew love until I found someone I treasured
It's kind of funny how for granted all the shit we take
Until we lose it and panic and finally kneel and pray
Life is a trip so I hope to God you packed your bags
Cuz you could stand in line and never see the light of day
They say I preach in all my music like a chosen one
Like I am wise beyond my years but I'm a smoking gun

So I'm gonna do this on my own
I'll see what's left when you're all alone
You can just try to hate on me, take a look into the work of my dreams
Elevation

So I'm gonna do this on my own
I'll see what's left when you're all alone
You can just try to hear me, take a look into the work of my dreams
