Soul Khan - Soul like Khan lyrics

rate me

i'm a hell of a geek with intelligent speech

small time but my skills will embellish my reach

fuck the upscale life and the elegant eats

just a grilled cheese and French fries and tell me it's cheap

got the flavor of Apollo creed with a plate of collard greens

trying to separate the good and bad from my father's genes

though the better part of me should bury the past

i can't forget the sweat of the woman that carried his ass

she saved and scraped while he was still jobless

she gave us faith while he was still godless

she made mistakes but still remained modest

while he straight escaped while we were unconscious

so now i fear nothing except maybe becoming

the man that made me and then left like it was nothing

a boy shouldn't ever have to be so grown

but when daddy ain't a daddy, got to be your own

chorus

i ain't the kind of man to hold my tongue

but sometimes i'm the only one

even if you've been where i'm from

you'll never know a soul like khan

i might sleep on that gravy train

but best believe i'm gonna stay the same

and y'all can eat off the weight i gain

you'll never know a soul like khan

i throw a penny in the well without wishing

in hopes that it floats with another's ambition

i was always told that small change is still change

caked up or broke down, y'all pain is still pain

i fall in love as easily as breathing

they feel it for a minute, too, but leave me in a season

i've been dropped in the autumn and frozen out in winter

outgrown in the spring and in summer burnt to cinders

i poke my nose where it doesn't belong

in your life, in your speakers, or the front of a thong

we all got some skeletons under our lawn

and my bones poke out so my shovel's a song

i crack a joke at a sucker's expense

but he's just another dude trying to cover the rent

and who am i to judge i'm a god damned mess

but if y'all still listening, i'm god damned blessed

chorus

i ain't the kind of man to hold my tongue

but sometimes i'm the only one

even if you've been where i'm from

you'll never know a soul like khan

i might sleep on that gravy train

but best believe i'm gonna stay the same

and y'all can eat off the weight i gain

you'll never know a soul like khan
