Stride - Jafaris

I’m heavy on my what to purpose

I wish I knew enough to see beyond the surface

I’m out of body so my body won’t receive the sermon

My spirit pleased when my body breath, that’s my honest verdict

I need direction, I need to feed of my own discernment

I follow sheep, I’m not man enough to reject the serpent

A peace of mind is no peace of mind, it’s a heavy burden

I need to leave but not ready to pull the final curtain

Who am I?

Ask my shadow art

A son of man or a son of God?

A son of king or a king of my own fate?

There is no reason why

I’ll seek truth in the darkest minds

Unless you don’t tell me why

One of my tings nearly died

I wanted to see the light

I wanted to them to talk to me so I could just see them cry

Like really cry

Like feel the spirits so far inside

You could see his eyes

Through my eyes so you never had to be vilified

They really tried, tried to take all the truth from me

I’m still alive, I hang with brothers who shoot for me

They cultivate when my beat and it’s not just root for me

It’s good for me

They elevate and leave food for me

I pray to God the world loosens what they done took from me

Don’t need to fair, then delegated they truthfully

And fear God and fear never been usefully

It fair losin' the gift and mouldin' my dreams for me

Sing for me pain, sing for me shame, sing for me

Pray for me mama, pray for me papa, pray for me

Take for me

Don’t shy away, don’t pull away from me

Take from me

I made mistakes then I made it to being great for me

Lessons learned, re-enacted and then erase from me

So take from me I came for you stride with me

Don’t be afraid to see life through me, fly with me

Cry

If you love, open your eyes

Won’t let the people in my life see less of me, yeah

I do believe there’s some distance between us

Cry

If you love, open your eyes

Won’t let the people in my life see less of me, yeah

I do believe there’s some distance between us
