J Salt - Alex's Gospel

This my gospel
Speaking truth like an apostle
Yea
This my gospel
Yea

Look
Faced with so much
Most would cry
Not I
I let the song be my outcry
I've felt more pain than I never knew existed
I thought I was invincible
But God knows different
He took my uncle
Then my Granny
On the 28th we buried em
What a dandy
I turned 25 the day before
What's the score
Barry bonds year
But I'm striking out more
We down by 40
Account overdraft
My daddy trippin
My ex dumb mad
She didn't understand
I was losing, fam
Yo, my mind was gone
Gah damn
A slave to my thoughts
Trapped by it all
Closet shit
Locked in the fuckin vault
So I'm 2nd guessin
Will I ever make it
Thoughts of dying crossed the mental
But I never take it

This my gospel
Speaking truth
Speaking truth like an apostle
Yea
This my gospel
Speaking truth
Speaking truth like an apostle
Yea
This my gospel
Speaking truth
Speaking truth like an apostle
This my gospel
Yea

Look
Shit weighing on me
She didn't get it
Bringing up some bullshit
Like I won't committed
Then you call me selfish
Oh, I hurt your soul
How so
In ways that I never know
That's how the story goes
Guess my heart is cold
I lost a little love for those who want control
Of my art and my life
Fuck all of them
People want your talent
And didn't put it
Damn them fake friends
I despise them
They want control
Money buys them
And buys most of y'all
Cash sellouts, that I never bail out
People quick change when the money hits the game
Mannequins to trends
Ole fashion lames
Give me my freedom
The one that money it brings
Damn all fame
This is Salt's gospel
Lord feel my pain

This my gospel
Speaking truth
Speaking truth like an apostle
Yea
Huh
This my gospel
Speaking truth
Speaking truth like an apostle
This my gospel
Speaking truth
Speaking truth like an apostle
This my gospel
This my gospel
We speaking truth
We speaking truth like an apostle
Yea
This my gospel
Huh
Yea
This my gospel
This my gospel
Speaking truth
Speaking truth like an apostle
Yea
This my gospel
Yea
