War, King

VERSE 1: You supposed to be at war king / why I always see you falling back just relaxing doing your thing? / boring, we want to see some action / you got a purpose, we tryna see you get it cracking / your contribution's worth a lot, but idle hands they become the devil's workshop / good intentions what the road to hell are paved with / learn the lesson from the life of King David / imagine a king of a kingdom bringing shame on his name and his family cause of the things done / when he was supposed to be on the battlefield / but found himself at home on the roof acting ill / how many dudes who supposed to bе at war / lost it all lusting at the girls next door / it's hard to spot us on a rooftop today cause / wе got slyer ways to put our eyes on our neighbors /

VERSE 2: You supposed to be at war king, or working / or at least job searching / think of all the grand plans you could be birthing / instead of aborting, get on your workhorse king / before the battle's up you ought to saddle up and ride out / instead of spending all your time up in the hideout / only negatives get developed in the dark room / get the picture, all these young kings I'm tryna talk to em /

VERSE 3: You supposed to be at war king / think of all the campaigns you could be endorsing / imagine the sure thing the Lord could place under the span of your wing / plans your hands could be supporting / but naw you stunting upon a rooftop / lunching like a kid with a juice box / you probably feel like you earned the right to rest / but don't turn from life to death to watch your neighbors undress /

VERSE 4: You should be at war king, or working / not online tryna find out who's twerking / you tweaking, retreating / treating our weekdays like it's a wild weekend / you supposed to earn Sabbath while working 6 days / not coughing up excuses and taking sick days / there's nothing wrong with resting if you're resting up for the next thing / but sometimes for your flesh the best thing is war /

VERSE 5: You supposed to be at war king / what you doing on rooftops tryna watch topless chicks in the morning / warning, that poor thing up on your screen that's not your queen / she could be bad, taking a bath like Bathsheba / batting eyelashes like glass souls that grab hold / and wrap souls and you'll be the next to get snatched / if you're that close where that rope can reach you / listen to the words of the preacher / war is the only way to ensure your kingdom //
