Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Take a guess who it is, yes, in the flesh, it's the
AE, JK, and Jay Orient
Sense the eloquence, rough but elegant
Insane like game, we pennin' every element
Of this rap shit, the fact is this is real life
For all my people that's strugglin' just to feel right
That's why each lyric I spit just hits different
Tryna give 'em wisdom and still they don't wanna listen, but shit
It's okay 'cause I'm makin' this for the children (Uh-huh)
And anybody that's willin' to keep buildin'
Never fit into the image, rather stand out
Can't blame that shit on my mother 'cause I'm a man now
Listenin' to Stevie, wonderin' 'bout the key to life
I got a son of my own and I'm tryna teach him right
That's why instead of speakin' darkness I been speakin' light
Ain't be the greedy type, just need enough to feed a tribe
[Chorus]
Heavenly father
Guidin' my step
Can't stop this rain
Though I've been tryin' my best
Fight for survival
Every trial, every test
But that won't stop me
Watch me turn these problems to progress
[PostChorus]
I know that's a lot to process
We got problems to progress
Turn them problems to progress
Might sound crazy
[Verse 2]
No time I can take off
Full speed, went ahead and took the breaks off
Guess I couldn't wait long, 'cause the place that we came from
'Cause so much pain, that's why we couldn't stay long
But go and tell everybody we on our way home
Only blessed to be a blessin', never stressin' fame, no
Can't drown in my doubts, gotta stay focused
On the main goal, tell 'em what we came for
Don't need a Range Rover, we need a changeover
Main motive is to break open the gates
So I can escape previous ways from back in the day
This that old J, we don't care what people say
Neither what they choose to play 'cause who's to say
That me, Jay and Eagle ain't three of the greats
Needless to say, we be straight leadin' the way
Be in this game till we deep in the grave, sayin'
[Bridge]
You gon' grow from every
Tear you shed, I know, woah
Some things you can't control
One thing that I know
They won't take my soul
[Chorus]
Heavenly father
Guidin' my step
Can't stop this rain
Though I've been tryin' my best
Fight for survival
Every trial, every test
But that won't stop me
Watch me turn these problems to progress
