Story

[Verse 1: Raging Moses]
So far from perfect
I’ma work in progress
Life gave us scars, like we living in a mosh pit
Consider all the options
Losses and conquest
But looking in a mirror, I think I seen a monster
Who’ve I become
I can peer into my conscience
Not all the way gone
But internally there’s conflict
Feeling like I’m falling
The floor came from under me
Praying that me son live
He still died in front of me
And I even know about collateral damage
Keep myself busy just so I forgot that it happened
But the pain come in waves though
Regardless if you faithful
Trying to find relief
Got me dressing in my grave clothes
Like hey girl I see you, go and slide in mentions
Bout to do something reckless
Just to get Gods attention
And I knows thats a lie
But I don’t know what I’m missing
I’m dealing with this pain
I practice the art of drifting

If you knew what I been through
Where I came from
My story, your story ain't the same one
The challenges, we've faced
The lies, destruction
May have its similarities
But still it's disparities
What I been through
Where I came from
My story, your story ain't the same one
The challenges, we've faced
The lies, destruction
May have its similarities
But still it's disparities

[Verse 2: No Malice]
He made a way out of no way
Kinda like OJ
With no regards for the feds feeling like I’m Oshay
Cooking in the kitchen with the chef
That’s Ghost Face
Next made a killing in these streets
That’s road rage
We never thought we would live to see our old age
Grands on our lap
Reminiscing over old days
But all things work together
So even if they throw shade
God put a smile upon my face
That’s Cold Play
It’s okay if they call me by my old name
I’ve been made a new
Hell, I forgot I sold cane
Lord knows though I kinda miss my gold chain
Small price to pay knowing I’ve been found with no stain
Wrinkle or blemish
He told me it was finished
Whoever could’ve guess I’d be about my fathers business
Now thats a level of forgiveness
With all the dirt I’ve done
I should be in the book of Guinness

If you knew what I been through
Where I came from
My story, your story ain't the same one
The challenges, we've faced
The lies, destruction
May have its similarities
But still it's disparities
If you knew what I been through
Where I came from
My story, your story ain't the same one
The challenges, we've faced
The lies, destruction
May have its similarities
But still it's disparities

[Verse 3: Cory Ard]
See I can show you what pain is
Come take a ride
You roll with me
Go with me
I show you what the King did
Spoon fed lies from the hood
Pops was locked
Doing time for the crimes from the hood
Moms working 2 to 10’s, 9 to 5’s
Did her all to provide
Wasn't easy bring up, such a hell raising child
I praise God that I saw the light
That's real talk
I should've been dead
But I'm here though
Had to learn to let go and let him steer though
Wasn't hard to tell what was at the end of my road
To many times
My life flashed but I survived
Cold steel against my head
Between my eyes
I thank Him for the whiteout
Now I’ma give him everything I got before it lights out
You'll never catch me trying to hide out
See me with the lumber Ima swing until I strikeout

If you knew what I been through
Where I came from
My story, your story ain't the same one
The challenges, we've faced
The lies, destruction
May have its similarities
But still it's disparities
What I been through
Where I came from
My story, your story ain't the same one
The challenges, we've faced
The lies, destruction
May have its similarities
But still it's disparities
