letra de mona lisa - miah travis
(intro)
i was once told that the world ain’t ran by faith
nonetheless don’t revolve around you
flawed by imperfection’s adolescence
this is my canvas i’ma lay out my mona lisa
(verse 1)
young adolescent, 16 with a bad aggression
2 years now i’m p-ss aggressive
with an avid blessing, lord said better p-ss the message
forehead baptized from reverend yeah
(he did so claiming it’d wash me of my sins, only for me to do so again; and so i repent)
still running around from my demons
claiming that i’d never be sh-t but a piece of sh-t with a 9 to 5
4 hours then a 9 to 9, lord knows that i then tried
(seems like life is a never ending cycle of trial and failure. some times i just want to let go, you know?)
in the midst of the chains and whips, we still slave to the chains and whips
though we ain’t slaves to the chains and whips
went from the pulpit to the jeweler with a pool of cash/
let me tell you what the jeweler said, he said
(no jesus piece can save you from your fate if you don’t have faith. and so i prayed; father forgive me.) (man shut the f-ck and give me the f-cking chain man.)
(hook)
rev’ said better pay your dues!
i told him you cannot buy my faith!
i told him you cannot buy my faith!
currency can’t pay my way!
benjamin can’t pay my way!
even though frank circulate!
around a world full of love and hate!
father god tell me what it takes!
rain fall on like all my days!
even when the sky ain’t grey!
even when my blood ain’t shed
apartheid still run my brain, hey! hey!
(verse 2)
i was once told that the world ain’t ran by faith
nonetheless don’t revolve around you/
flawed by imperfection’s adolescence
this is my canvas i’ma lay out my mona lisa/
yeah, yeah, yeah
papa never loved us, popping pills and f-cking
problem as a youngen’ sinning every sunday
i just needed something make me feel good
i just needed something make me feel good
always told my lovers, i ain’t into loving
i just wanted something make me feel above it
used to tell my brother i ain’t into love
all these thotties f-cking, i ain’t in for nothing
mama told me baby you need prayer
grandma told me baby you need savior
i’ve been resurrected from my past life
steady contemplating on the past times
all the past lies that i felt for
and weak temptation i fell for
i went to church today the first time in a minute
let me tell you what the pastor mentioned
(hook)
rev’ said better pay your dues!
i told him you cannot buy my faith!
i told him you cannot buy my faith!
currency can’t pay my way!
benjamin can’t pay my way!
even though frank circulate!
around a world full of love and hate!
father god tell me what it takes!
rain fall on like all my days!
even when the sky ain’t grey!
even when my blood ain’t shed
apartheid still run my brain, hey! hey!
(outro)
i was once told that the world ain’t ran by faith
nonetheless don’t revolve around you
hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
