Saigon - Street Gospel lyrics
rate me(Intro)
Do you think music has a meaning?
Oh, yeah, definitely, it's good to be more spiritual sooner than anything
Pretty soon I believe that we're gonna have to rely on music
To aaa, speak out a piece of mind, satisfaction, direction in action
More songs than thoughts(!?!)
Ahaaaa, true shit
(Verse: Saigon)
Stop rappin' like a tough nigga
Start a label, now you actin' like you puff, nigga?!
That'll get you stuffed, nigga
From gangsta to good guy, you gotta love it
If I had a heart, this would come from the bottom of it
Go 'head talk shit on the blog, girl, I can snuff if
What's gon' happen is clappin', we'll beat yo life in public
You still conscient, but this time it's hostile
This time I'm hittin' these niggas with
(Hook)
Street gospel
Hissin' in with these ears
Breathe me in with these nostrils
I am an evangelist, dream I'll be a realist
I speak the truth, preach to the streets
I'mma cut these words to the people I reach
Hit em with a lil bit of street gospel
(The renegade's renaissance)
I've got the street gospel
(The renegade's renaissance)
Do you want the street gospel?
(Yeah yeah)
Forgive me for the sins I've done
No time runnin' from a lil bit of street...
(Verse 2: Saigon)
Now the Chief Keef fly, we gon' kiss em good-bye
Look how many people had to die
Last night in my dream I seen Mr. Jimmy Iovine
All that I could do is ask him why (why)
I said Jimmy, who you got speakin' at these marketin' meetins'?
Why do poor(??) people talk what they seeking?
When all they promotin' is sex and violence
And the office they keepin'
That be things to keep yo heart from beatin'
Tellin' the king that sellin' drugs will make his life less hard
Cuz he's eatin' that he's sayn he can get through all it by cheatin'
This is just not a reality, interscope's thrivin'
Cuz they givin' the women pool of liquor to dive in
Famous endeavor, you ain't a game
Bang bang and lean, now this lil nigga (bang bang)
He says Saigon, you got it wrong
I'm just the guy who make it possible
(Hook)
Hit em with a lil bit of street gospel
(The renegade's renaissance)
I've got the street gospel
Do you want the street gospel?
(The renegade's renaissance)
Forgive me for the sins I've done
No time runnin' from a lil bit of street gospel
(Verse 3: Saigon)
The center was imperative for me to be negative
To make a name in the record business
Get the executives to invest money in music
Disinfectin' the kid, in this ghetto the kids will neva live it honest
Attracted to this? Nah, I can't see that happenin'
'Specially with a nigga like me that's rappin'
He who is not packin' this heat is lackin'
Be ready, but you neva wanna see that action
Gotta understand I'm not the kind of a man
Who allow a dude to be rude and take some food outta my hand
Got em ? plan, show em that I'mma stand my ground
Try and bring me down, a tantra opera man(?)
Nah, I can't see that happenin'
'Specially with a nigga like me that's clappin'
Saigon graduated from York public ?
I was born to hit round people with
(Hook)
Street gospel
Hissin' in with these ears
Breathe me in with these nostrils
I am an evangelist, dream I'll be a realist
I speak the truth, preach to the streets
I'mma cut these words to the people I reach
Hit em with a lil bit of street gospel
(The renegade's renaissance)
I've got the street gospel
(The renegade's renaissance)
Do you want the street gospel?
Forgive me for the sins I've done
No time runnin' from a lil bit of street...
