Hook
In Jesus Name
I pray to live long to see better days
Seek God first and He'll take away the pain
Resist the devil and He'll flee away
Away(x3)
Verse 1
Alright (x2) first things first, all praise to the most high
He give me the grace and protection no wonder the young man is still alive
Forever immortalized
Don't know about you others guys
I've been counted out so many times now it's high time for the boy to shine
Yeah homie I been patient
The struggles only tryna shape me
Half the time I'm on the grind and my ex girl tryna reach me
I ain't got time though
Tryna get big money for a condo
Balling on the court like I'm Rondo
Nikes on my feet where ever I go
I put my piece together now me and my brothers go mainstream
I used to write all these rhymes when I was in class that was around 16
Nowadays its making sense who would ever guess
I would get the blessings
Now a nigga up next you could grab a pen i could be your sensei
Hook (twice)

Verse 2
I told them that I will never get discouraged
Stared very little but we balling on a budget
All we do is bring that fire sound and shout to my brothers
Back and forth I penetrate until we get it busted
But I talked to God and He said, ""baby boy do not rush it"".
Having all these visions about making big deposits
Now my life is like a movie so you better not stop watching
Meditating on the word I don't have time for petty gossip
I put my piece together now me and my brothers go mainstream
I used to write all these rhymes when I was in class that was around 16
Nowadays its making sense who would ever guess
I would get the blessings
Now a nigga up next you could grab a pen i could be your sensei
