Lyrics
[Intro]
See I realized something
Is that after all these years that I wasted
Every single memory has been haunting me, you know
Mysfit what up
[Verse 1]
I Put my faith in some folks and they let me down
Couldn't be the captain, I got led around
False promises, false opportunities
Told about this, about that, wasn't new to me
Denied me like Peter when I tried to build community
That's why we never prosper, cause blacks don't know unity
Nobody got the heart that I got, I thought foolishly
Put my trust in man then read my soul, it's own eulogy
You ever felt like the black sheep entirely?
The butt of people's jokes just to back away quietly
Knew you weren't important labeled you a big commodity
I used to show my hand they would never see that side of me
Felt abandoned
Left stranded
Surrounded by some snakes, demons with a couple bandits
You let me down completely
I trusted in you deeply
I would never trust a soul, only trust in God and art
Put my trust in folks and they left me with a broken heart
Time to build my own ark
Let Jesus play the captain part
God please lead the way
[Hook]
I put my trust in these people and they let me down
Gave my love to the world and they let me down
Put my faith in a lot, and it let me down
Then I gave it all to God, he ain't let me down
[Verse 2]
I used to think that life was all about chasing dreams
We was young and chasing skirts, trying to make some cream
Thought I was grown, left mama house when I was 17
Thought it be peach and cream, then my life got super mean
Everyone I know, live check to check, you know we could be
Most of us stressed, we puff on weed just to get some peace
Couldn't believe when I awoke, all the things I seen
Right in my face but it's okay, sheeple going to sleep
At the end of the day all I got is me
They ain't really rocking, I'm solid like pottery
The man in the mirror, only one stopping me (me)
Cause God got me, God mind and God body
I needed help but it was all closed doors
I gave my all but what was it all for?
I asked forgiveness, let my knees hit the floor
If not, one thing is everything when it rains, it pours
[Hook]
I put my trust in these people and they let me down
Gave my love to the world and they let me down
Put my faith in a lot, and it let me down
Then I gave it all to God, he ain't let me down
