Kumari D'Shay - SOUL TIES

I can see the pain in your eyes
(I can see the pain I tried to wish away)
I can feel the weight of your cries
(Heavy-loaded plate, I feel the heavy weight like)
What you had to trade for the prize
(Never could I trade mine, tell me how could they?)
Hoping that your fate is a lie
(Fake prize, all of these great lies all in their way)
I tried to lead the way for the wise
Tried to make it safer to rise
Tried to break the chain of the ties…
Couldn't be a savior, I tried…
Woke up feeling spiteful 'cause nobody ever showed the way
All this starting over—feel like I ain't never know the way
I keep feeling lost
That's when all them demons try to play
Yeah I talk to God
I really hope that He got time today
Hopeless and defeated—I can feel it and the enemy can see it
He building up a legion and he want us all to seek it
Save 'em get to preaching trynna teach 'em what they need to know
Like, make me a believer
Yo, someone call the Most High
Think we in the endgame
Sent me to a world where
Everybody insane
Prayers going up, no
Answer back to obey
Soldiers been on standby
Waiting for that "okay"
Father God in Heaven
Heal my heart and take the pain away
Lead me to the light,
All I see is all these rainy days
Demons in my side view
Tell 'em all to fade away
Tell me what can I do?
I been trynna pave a way
I can see the pain in your eyes
(I can see the pain I tried to wish away)
I can feel the weight of your cries
(Heavy-loaded plate, I feel the heavy weight like)
What you had to trade for the prize
(Never could I trade mine, tell me how could they?)
Hoping that your fate is a lie
(Fake prize, all of these great lies all in their way)
Aye
Ceiling got to leaning on me
Couldn't hear You speaking
Only heard the world preaching that
"I would never be enough"
Enemy deceiving everybody and he leading us
Trynna make illegal everything You ever seen in us
Saw it back in school
And I saw it on the news
Everybody so confused
Like, who the fuck is leading us?
Heard it in the music
I didn't have to choose it
Everybody lose when
Idols start to reaching us
All that imagery like what you really teaching us?
Need my energy to fight off what they feeding us
See the enemy recruiting I can see the rush
And the inner me like "Who we s'posed to be to trust?"
Tried to lead the way for the wise
Tried to make it safer to rise
Tried to break the chain of the ties
Couldn't be a savior, I tried
Everybody talk about a lot they sacrifice 
Why they never tell you any truth about the price?
Why they never tell you how they pay it with a life?
Tell 'em what it is, and they still gon' roll the dice
Aye
Tell me pop a pill
And they tell me how to feel
And they starting all problems
They causing me to deal with
Patient but I still get
Hungry for a meal when
Everybody eat, but
Ima have to steal shit
Doesn't really take much
If they wanna break us
You just gotta sit back
Sleeping, never wake up…
(I been down that dark road, had to find my own shine)
You just gotta sit back
Sleep and never wake up
(What you know about that?)
(When you know you the truth, and the liars condemn it)
(It's one hell of a time, one hell of a test, one hell of a climb...)
If anybody ever try to stop me
Please know I got Angels here that watch me
(Watch me)
Prayers up, know They ain't forgot me
If they sleeping, I know they gon' be sorry
And they peeping my flavor, but they not me
Leaping, my faith ain't ever drop me
So I'm never bound, by them trynna block me
(Never bound, never bound, never bound)
I ain't ever bound
(I ain't ever bound)
Leaping my faith ain't never drop me
(Faith ain't ever drop me)
So I'm never bound, by them trynna block me
