[Magno Garcia‘s Own Lyrics]
Another day, another lesson/
Reach time to breathe another blessing/
I came up from the streets of the hard knocks/
To getting known in rap by just spitting on hard blocks/
The paper dream killed most of my kinfolk/
Then God pulled me out, asked me what are you in for?/
I tried to build a plan where my people would not die/
In my mind it worked, but the rest just did not try/
Hard headed we were robots did not cry/
Snotty nose kids when the winter would pass by/
I mean remember the times we went Church together/
Some of us saved, sometimes we’d even hurt together/
I mean we parted ways, but showing the love forever/
The choices we took, some foolish, others more than more than clever/
I mean the weight of the world was almost light as feathers/
Who am I kidding? The pressure was beyond the measure/
Uhh, real people would speak it/
Trying to find the truth, real people who seek it/
Prayers shouted to heal people who’d need it/
Paper being routed thru i-legal procedures/
Too dirty to air it/
The laundry’s being washed, then folded amongst the parents/
I mean on Saturdays we’d just O.D/
Then on Sunday we’d just….
Fast forward the story though/
I was taught to God it be the glory though/
Gave up my habits and bet it all in/
He told me “Give me your life, I’m cleansing all sins”/
…..Walked with Him thru fire roads/
Left what I saw important to follow Higher roles/
I did it humbly not knowing I’d wear a Higher robe/
Still I show passion to be obedient to what I know/
…..Crazy is what they’re calling me/
Now I rap to praise Him they questioning up my artistry/
Gotta show Him love, he’s kept me from reaching poverty/
The King reigns supreme, I’m following up his Monarchy/
I mean today they’re struggling with the honesty/
Republicans, Democracy, both of them don’t do squat for me/
So I praise the living God who’s on top of me/
The one changing hearts, the ruler with all the sovereignty/
Yeah, so the Gospel is right/
This the word for the sick needing hospital rights/
I was raised as a child bumping H.O.V/
Nowadays I just….
Last words I just want to convey/
Life becomes easy when you kneel down and just pray/
And I don’t mean ask for things, just speak to Him/
The same way I do it in my raps in this beat to Him/
I’m asking for a favor Lord, come down and speak to ’em/
A buncha friends dying cus they putting the heat to em/
Help me preach to ’em, help me speak to ’em/
We thank you for your grace, Oh God bring the peace to ’em/
Amen
