Early Days

Heavenly Father, we bow our head and pray that

we'll find favor in everything we do.

I went to sleep late, but I woke up early.

Kissed the game goodbye, baby good night, surely.

Yeah, I took the scenic route, but I like that journey.

Now I get to tell the major-label call my attorney.

Somehow I’m on the bottom still, ****le my, got a deal,

running game all day, I'm feeling like a soccer field.

Sick of all these ego-driven son of a b****es,

I'm just trying to feed my daughter without going to prison.

They did, I'm your average white dude, you must have me mistaken,

cuz there's a lot of people just counting on me to make it.

I'mma shake it when I get there, just keep it one hundred.

I'mma show my ass should've never gave me money.

Long nights. Long nights. Early days. Early days.

Bow our heads. Bow our heads. Let us pray. Let us pray.

Amen. Amen. In Jesus' name. In Jesus' name.

Lord, help. Lord, help.

Get us out this game. Out this game.

Long nights. Long nights. Early days. Early days.

Bow our heads. Bow our heads. Let us pray. Let us pray.

Amen. Amen. In Jesus' name. In Jesus' name.

Lord, help. Lord, help.

Get us out this game. Out this game.

Life with no crime on my mind, snapped,

and I'm back on the grind.

Duffle bags, rubber bands.

S*** that you don’t understand.

Suffering no music, man.

Calling to write no checks.

So I built a stash, with the cash.

I ain't gonna hit a W****, who could drop a greatest hits.

But I'm awake, cuz I'll fill up that my greatest s***.

What my greatest hits drop, I'll probably be gone.

You know how s*** go wrong,

I wonder who gonna pick the songs.

Who gonna write the booking, will they tell this s*** right?

Will children seeking direction, learn from my life?

Oh well, I just die in vain, live on through my songs,

and they only pay attention when they drunk and they stoned.

Come on.

Long nights. Long nights. Early days. Early days.

Bow our heads. Bow our heads. Let us pray. Let us pray.

Amen. Amen. In Jesus' name. In Jesus' name.

Lord, help. Lord, help.

Get us out this game. Out this game.

Long nights. Long nights. Early days. Early days.

Bow our heads. Bow our heads. Let us pray. Let us pray.

Amen. Amen. In Jesus' name. In Jesus' name.

Lord, help. Lord, help.

Get us out this game. Out this game.

We believe Father God

has heaven and knows who worked so diligently to make it there,

to be a host, so.

And the earth, as for us to take care of.

Amen.
