Morning After Grace

[Rapping] Locked in a room, pen and paper my only tools Writing down my views and I'm not bound by rules Kick off my shoes if I chose and air out my wounds I gotta kill off my blues, if not man I'll burst a fuse Ain't amused by how I'm used by the hand of fate Not impressed about how my destiny takes shape Man I paid my dues, I feel like I'm owed a big prize Or maybe that's just whispers of pride in disguise Feeling entitled and thinkin' all that's shines is mine Imagine that ego, walking around like some hero "S" on my chest—but in my mind I'm a zero Damn... Man my queen would hate that kind of thinking Fuck a rose, held me down as my ship was sinking Looked at me, no blinking—then she pulled me closer Said it's cliché I know but your story is not over So I'm wondering if I was quick to show fate hate? It gave me a mate that always showed me grace Motivates me to stay great and to win every race Things cost things, ain't that what they always say So maybe having her was the price I had to pay Sacrificed all that glitters for some calm and peace Never got whips and chains but I live my life free Yeah... So I'll dance in the rain until it's my chance to reign And I'll lay all my rage right on the face of the page Deface the stage if these rappers are tryna engage And it's a jab and a hook if they even take the bait I guess I'm using these rappers to blow off steam Ain't acting and this ain't improv but I go off script Turn around the scenes and rewrite all my dreams Oh it's that god complex, guess it's hard to oppress That’s why I step on necks—spin ’em like a vortex Cult of personality, got em dancing like Manson And fuck a letter to fate, you'll see me in person [Singing] Staring at a dirty mirror, I see myself more clearer I'm my own destruction and my only healer Staring at a dirty mirror, now view is clearer I'm my own executioner and my own redeemer Dear fate, me and you gon’ wrestle ‘til you bless me Break my hip before the sunrise—or just bless me Morning after grace Morning after grace This is the morning after grace Yeah... Morning after grace...
