Blessings - Ransom

A-hem, a-hem

Where we at?

Yeah, turn me up

Turn me up a little bit more

Yeah, right there

Okay, you hear that woman?

Umm

Let me let her sing, umm

Let’s get back to the congregation

I got a couple words for y’all

Ha, I’m not preachin' though

Ha, yeah, y’all not feelin' me

I’m in a class by myself like y’all niggas just playin' hookie (okay)

They talk a little crazy, but not too insane to push me

My pop gettin' slain, it shook me

I never made excuses though

That’s why I got that '95 Nas wearin' that kufi flow (woo!)

You should know, a rose in this jungle

Ain’t got the roots to grow

They givin' dirt naps, and yeah, I ain’t talkin' 'bout Pookie’s 'fro

Oh yeah, he talkin' that gospel, talkin' that soul shit

Oh yeah, a verse from the Bible, words from that old script

I’m tryin' to make your soul lift (yes)

Just so happens that rapping’s the platform that I chose, shit

It’s a plus that the flow’s sick

I’m conductin' this whole shit, you don’t need to speak, bro

You should have a lot on ya plate when you tryin' to eat, bro

I told you if you broke last night, then why would you sleep for?

I told you that success at the door just look through that peephole

Umm huh, I feel it, shit, in my (?)

That’s stomach for my people that’s comin' from Puerto Rico

The streets know, who’s the authentic, who’s the apprentice

Who’s bein' blemished, and who’s top ten is simply invented

For real (for real), I give you somethin' to feel

Completin' against myself, that’s steel sharpenin' steel, so chill

From the south (south), east (east), west (west)

Say it without a doubt (doubt), we (we), blessed (blessed)

That’s all around the world if they sayin' belief left

No, I feel it in my heart

So I’m cherishin' each breath, we blessed

From the south (south), east (east), west (west)

Say it without a doubt (doubt), we (we), blessed (blessed)

That’s all around the world if they sayin' belief left

No, I feel it in my heart

So I’m cherishin' each breath, we blessed

Hot as a summertime shootout (yeah)

Hotter than them ass whippings I got for throwin' food out (yeah)

Hotter than when ya school’s out (yeah)

Hotter than when ya momma said «baby, it’s time you move out»

Hotter than a project hallway when pullin' tools out

How could this nigga lose out?

(How?), I’m into upliftin' (let's go)

But I’ve been in knife fights with real niggas that’s cut different

I keep my trust distant, as well as you should

From the era where you might kill, but still intend to do good

Quit listenin' to these niggas they spirit ain’t firm enough

Let’s see where we turnin' up when these niggas keep turnin' up

I’m burnin' up, I keep my food for thought hot when I’m servin' up

That’s word to Puff

They tried to hold my shine back when they heard enough (yes)

From the south (south), east (east), west (west)

Say it without a doubt (doubt), we (we), blessed (blessed)

That’s all around the world if they sayin' belief left

No, I feel it in my heart

So I’m cherishin' each breath, we blessed

From the south (south), east (east), west (west)

Say it without a doubt (doubt), we (we), blessed (blessed)

That’s all around the world if they sayin' belief left

No, I feel it in my heart

So I’m cherishin' each breath, we blessed
