Apple Of His Eye is a track from Craig Xen’s 2020 album Why.
This Christianity-inspired track talks about Craig Xen’s faith in god and common world problems (Violence, Unity & Faith)
To be the apple of someone’s eye clearly means that you are being gazed upon and watched closely by that person...
[Intro]
(Turn the mic up)
[Verse]
Yep, tell me
What is there to do when there's no peace within a home?
Searchin' through the streets to find relief within his own
Needles fillin' up, but heat his dreams up in a spoon
Most dealers and killers just victims of abuse
And sick little nation and the system is approved
Harmful and it's wrong but we talk that it's not
It's hard for us to organize and hard for us to plot
When they takin' all the cream from the seeds of our crops
Disease in the blocks, the keys in the choppers like a third world country with a cherry on the top
United ain't the word, we divided into states
Divided by a race and how much money that we make
I'm a nigga in his eyes, but I'm a blessing in my mommas
Blessing in my fathers, I'm a blessing in my daughters
Recovering, I do my best to keep it all anonymous
Rolling CBD, I'm bumpin' Bone Thugs-N-Harmony
Demons on the creep, and Jesus keepin' 'em up off me
Jealousy and envy from my people, it appalls me
Like how the fuck you bit the hand that fed you when you called me?
I don't dig my nose inside no shit that don't involve me
I don't think another homicide is finna solve shit
We gon' have to reunite and set aside our bullshit
Learning how to be a man and living my amends
G-O-D is all I need, in He, I have a friend
In He, I have father and in He, I have a plan
I'ma be everything He enlightened me, I am
The apple in his eye, so many bodies stackin' all in passion
In his heart, I bet he catch 'em and he cry
I was taught the Lord collect our tears in a bottle
Years worth of sorrow, still faithful in the 'morrow
Thankful for the wisdom and I'm grateful for the moment
I'ma praise Him, I'ma say His name and fuck who don't condone it, nigga
[Bridge]
Ayy, I know God got me, ayy, ayy
I know God got me, yeah, ayy
I know God got me, yeah, ayy
I know God got me (Said God got me)
[Chorus]
Never will I fear no devil in my ears
So many devils in my rear view but God got me
So I'ma draw Him near, I'ma wipe my tears
I'm a soldier in the field, nigga, God got me
Never will I fear no devil in my ears
So many devils in my rear view but God got me
So I'ma draw Him near, I'ma wipe my tears
I'm a soldier in the field, nigga, God got me
Never will I fear devil in my ears
So many devils in my rear view but God got me
So I'ma draw Him near, I'ma wipe my tears
I'm a soldier in the field, nigga (God got me)
[Outro]
Ayy, I know God got me, ayy, ayy
I know God got me, huh, yeah
You said God got me, ayy, yeah
I know God got me
