JeBarr23 - Ironic lyrics
Growin up in the church, my paps was preachin And up in the schoolyard mom was teachin Everywhere I went the rumors was reaching He’s the son of a preacher he should be more meeker Getting kicked outta hockey for being a fighter Had so much aggression I was filled with fire But now they askin / man what’s ur passion It’s rap it is now and always has been I’d hear a little boom bap comin from the trunk But never assuming that I was settin up To try to spit flow / get shows Riding and jiving, man I was like this all good like a free throw Until that day – when Joe hit me up Wit a little cross movement it was settin up To inspire me flow for Christ Now I know why paps wrote them sermons every night I ain’t no gangster / I ain’t no thug I ain’t even eva never dabbled in drugs I’m a white boy, ain’t supposed to rap Plus I’m a Christian, how ironic is that? Now, I know I ain’t got no horror story And like Truth I give God all the glory Just throw on the beat and let them record me But I’m grown now, and life’s so different for me And out my comfort zone at home in mommas basement Making me think about my faith statement Why should I care if everybody be hatin It’s about them. Not the money I’m making So I thank God for any skills I got I don’t know how I rap or produce a track I just pray, Lord let your will be done Put words in my mouth to glorify ur son I don’t wanna be another impersonator Most rappers try to be sumptin bigger than they are I ain’t here to brag, or give props to myself I ain’t from the hood. Ain’t got drugs to sell I was only 5 when I realized That there’s only 2 ways we can live our lives Either seekin righteousness Or following the evil instincts we got locked up inside Why, that’s what I wanted to know Sitting out in the snow / chewing icicles There’s gotta more to this life than earth I gotta have a spirit, and I’m more than dirt I got sumptin that I cherish / 2 loving parents I thank them for bugging always being there when I’d stray away, passin a day Without searching for God passionately They passed me the faith/ I could chucked it Nah, I was like that’s whatsup it’s My testimony all up in a not I told u what I am and tell u what I’m not Yeah, that’s the real. See, I could pretend to be sumptin bigger than I am. \ I used to do that, claimin I was cool on every track but I’m tired of that. I gotta tell it how it is Cuz man, I’m nothing compared to Jesus the Christ. And that’s who I’m out here pushing up. Not myself but a savior. |
