lyrics

Yo/when you pray/pray in this manner/our father who art in heaven/don’t forget us/lead us to moonlit pastures/with silver light love/lacing my pages/grace abound in the sound of praises/where u inhabit on the backs of fools seeking atonement/redemptive prodigal/paulian doctrine/where the sun of man quoted/Egyptian mysteries/ascension based knowledge/I am the fruit of shabazz/recalling worship at Heliopolis/ever the optimist/navigating the rigors of third dimension laws/scarred knuckles and liver damage from all my pitfalls/walk with the meek and talk to the streets/abase the pharaoh/I come to you weak/feeling desperate short of breath gasping/tears falling I guess what I’m asking/is such a silly question/my brain storms for a thread of faith/no hope/I’ll turn my head away/maybe some other day/I’ll take a shot in the dark

Chorus: A shot in the dark/Yo/I been having a difficult time/if you care for me then give me a sign/ I’ll take a Shot in the dark/I been looking/my walk’s been crooked/but I been hoping that you could refine me/here’s a shot in the dark/kind of been wanting to end it all/but its you if ever a nigga had a friend at all/a shot in the dark/if it fells you can send me to hell/cause at least I’ve seen fire/plus I know that the devil is real

Last year should have broke me/I stood alone/that’s what my earth showed me/kicked off an ill resistance with broski/finished with the ghost of dissidence/and to top it off/scrub ass uncle keith was on some trick shit/that’s why I keep friends and fam distant/sipping herbals reading scriptures/while burning incense/tears fall/this pain is intense/abandoned Krishna conscience for Kolishnikovs/and fisticuffs/hit the bricks and beat your pain to dust/ammunition to keep the god from trusting/still hustling/never even had time to mourn/I miss my homie britt your memory lives on/word bond/the pit of my stomach feel like I swallowed venom or something/I can curl up and die/or stand and keep gunning/even though I’m losing/I am not a loser/smelling like Dmitri vodka/maybe a boozer/but if I had the chance to choose I wouldn’t even be here/so until I get a taste of living water/tell God I’mma be sipping these beers/

Chorus:

All is energy/the universe hears me/so with thought I co create alchemically/against the obvious impossible/self is obstacle/the god cipher divine/accountable clowning with cannibals/counting my candles/snuffing out my flame/strength of intention/the midst of pain/the weight of karma heavy on my brain homie listen/I’ve searched within and without/my truest friend devout/reflecting the past present/all is illusion except this very second/we lose it/crying about then stress over when/blessing my pen with supplication hate subjugation/force awaken the primordial spark/creationism enlightenment always leads me back to the dark/salvation awaits the…
