Everett Carter - Mentors

Half of y'all cats don't even believe in what you steady pushin books for and door to door preachin and
Wonderin why all your followers leavin someone opened up they eyes and now they can see it
And yo I speak for the people you abandoned before me all their mistrust their anger and their pain employed me So
Label me villainous I'm in your story imma sit back and watch you do your best to ignore me just listen
Categorized as sifted put the pedal to the floor when the blame was shifted yo
And when I feel no joy I'm socially isolated and silenced with no voice
I was confused by your verdict told you I was hurtin but your logic never heard it so I'm
Suffocated and emasculated yo call me blessed if this test ever ends I hate this
What do you see
Get your head out the clouds and just listen
What do you believe
Aye yo what do you believe
Pray for me
Wake up wake up
Pray for me
Wake up wake up
Pray for me
Nah wake up wake up
Wont you pray for me
Hey wake up wake up
See the pressure is mounting the end is right here and the trumpets are sounding
Give us all your time or you wont survive and don't you ever try to find out if we're in the right
And don't you pay them no mind all these others are just imposters
We are the only solution to the father
Close your mind common sense is not needed we'll paint your world full of fear as we see fit
Welcomed like a brother ignored like a stranger
Run you to ya end condescend on ya anger I been
Educated to do what I was told and don't you dare turn your back or even think to ask questions
I gave my life to you had me thinkin that's what god wanted me to do but nah
See when imperfect mans in power when it makes it to they head their whole souls devoured just listen
What do you see
Get your head out the clouds and just listen
What do you believe
Pray for me
Wake up wake up
Pray for me
Wake up wake up
Pray for me
Nah wake up wake up
Wont you pray for me
Hey wake up wake up
The conflict is real is this something I should wake from or pray it gets revealed I
Told myself that I was down for the cause till the rumors that I heard were the things that I saw and im
Locked in by belief never straying further than the words on the street
You had everything I had I had everything to give
But beware don't make em mad make you wish you never lived and
Its some bizarre technicality
Where are the facts to bring me into reality
Why are we here just battling for our minds was i doomed from the start or do I still have time I
Wanna be heard so far from mercy
Whatcha gonna do when god says your not worthy
Found out it was just another mans thoughts
Was it vain all the trails all the battles we fought just listen
What do you see
Get your head out the clouds and just listen
What do you believe
Aye yo what do you believe
Pray for me
Wake up wake up
Pray for me
Wake up wake up
Pray for me
Nah wake up wake up
Wont you pray for me
Hey wake up wake up
Guess in the end it was worth it
Gave it all to god and his timing was perfect I
Wish that you could see me now
You wont believe all the things that my god worked out
He turned my nightmares into dreams and my dreams into reality
Cant get you to listen cause you caught up in a fallacy
Gave me all this energy I watch the time fly
When it used to be Id wake up and I'm wishin I would die
And GOD
I cant say that I know you
They been tellin me this is the place to go to
Filled me full of promises throughout the years
But every time I made a mistake I'm forced to fear your not here
So what do I do
Am I cursed with success or did it come from you
Do I abandon this course betray my mentors
Just to break the chains full of fear and find more
What do you see
Get your head out the clouds and just listen
What do you believe
Aye yo what do you believe
Pray for me
Wake up wake up
Pray for me
Wake up wake up
Pray for me
Nah wake up wake up
Wont you pray for me
Hey wake up wake up
