[Intro - Godforbid, Kemo The Blaxican]
Yeah (what's this?)
Kemo The Blaxican, heheh
Godforbid (hahah)
[Verse 1 - Kemo The Blaxican]
Now I'm an ugly motherfucker from around the way
I should know, I see myself every day in the mirror (in the mirror)
It's quite clear (it's quite clear, it's quite clear)
Yeah I could paint a purty picture with the words I say
[?] sin washed away with the words I pray
From right here (right here, right here)
It would appear (it would appear, it would appear)
That I'm a sinner, and I drink a little too damn much
I burn street smoke cuts, I don't give two fucks
I draw tears (I draw tears)
My dear (my dear)
While the church bells ring, I fight and scream
Demons in my dreams, but me and the king
Got a deal (got a deal)
My only judge for real (my only judge for real)
[Chorus - Godforbid]
I've been guilty of sin (hoo!)
I've been ugly at times
With a heart full of darkness
And a mouth full of lies
I've been dead in the corner
I've been strong and alive
I've been a son, been a father
We all got two sides
[Verse 2 - Godforbid]
Stole from the rich, gave to the poor
Or at least I said I would the day before
Might a took a page or more
From the book you used to praise the Lord
Or some lies to wage your way to war
My every day is on some shit you'd be amazed you saw
Need a fake, Say no more
It's true I maybe (true I maybe)
Gettin' just a little too high lately (too high lately)
Used to reflect, get a pain in my gut
Fight it off with the same damn arrangement of stuff
Life'll go away if you hate it enough
Inflate it until you can't lift the weight of it up
Painful, the words hurt my mouth
Cold blooded, make the birds fly south
Don't let Ms. Candy at the church find out
Or them guys in nice shirts at your work find out
[Intro - both]
I've been guilty of sin
I've been ugly at times
With a heart full of darkness
And a mouth full of lies
I've been dead in the corner
I've been strong and alive
I've been a son, been a father
We all got two sides
[Verse 3 - Kemo The Blaxican]
I've hurt a few people, some hurt me first
Distant memories rollin' off in a hearse
A damn shame (damn shame)
I don't recall the names (I don't recall the names)
I walked the hated and the crucified off the land
With metaphors that I sketch on a razor's edge
Then I fall (then I fall)
I can't balance it all (I can't balance it all)
And I confessed that I'm weak at times
Then reminded I'm blind
Narcissistically, out for mine
It's true (it's true)
I do it all for you (I do it all for you)
My reflection is a firing squad
I'm rather broken and flawed
I ain't the one you wanna follow at all
It's suitable (suitable)
Ugly and beautiful
[Chorus - Godforbid]
I've been guilty of sin (hoo!)
I've been ugly at times
With a heart full of darkness
And a mouth full of lies
I've been dead in the corner
I've been strong and alive
I've been a son, been a father
We all got two sides
