My guiding light shines clear...
Verse 1 (D Smoke):
So
A word to anyone who’ll listen
Or soldiers on a mission
From Nova Scotia to the southernmost ocean I boast for old traditions
While lesser men are comatose and frozen in a Polaroid I play my own position
A couple times they kicked me out of school even though I paid my intuition
Even though I prayed for better days
When pops was locked up in a metal cage
Old Joe’s with The Cornrows
A head of braids on a head of grays
Chasing greens and that feta cheese ‘stead of meditation to levitate
Some things you can’t shortcut
The good word can’t be paraphrased
When you get a stain your crown from fumbling down pick it up
And brush it off it’s part of the process
God made us from the dust
It’s called favor when stars shine the light on your Darth Vader, show you love
Even when you feeling low
You got your faith to hold you up
You got true art plus heart that darts can’t pierce walk game fierce
Graduate the block same year
Made a stream out of the same tears
Love lost
Same peers
Paid cost
Pain heals
Made adjustments through the changes
That’s exactly what a king is
Hook:
Baby, if you lose your way
It's only a prayer away
Your guiding light
Your North Star
Is with you, everywhere you are
Baby, if you lose your way
It's only a prayer away
Hold on
To your dreams
Remember you're a king
Verse 2:
I always been different
Spirit flowing through my ligaments
Thought provoking type of lyricist
Don’t come with no health benefits
I was too good, to be good enough
They hated that I made them level up
And I was just looking for a friend
Silly me, silly them
With the illy pen, I be killing men
What's a lost man’s medicine
A real ass kinda reckoning
Petty me, petty them
The righteous road’s a lonely one
The words I told my only son
The weak will fold and come undone
The strong will grow and lead them up
But
What you do when no one agrees with you, huh?
Can you still speak the truth?
With no amens
Or no co signs
Or no praise hands on the posts lines
Everybody do the most now
Trying to prove that they woke, huh?
May God give us discernment
From fake prophets and the posers
These days can't tell the sane from the profane
Calling shit drips chocolate rain
Everything’s for sale it’s a damn shame
I’ve been woke so long my eyelids swoll
You couldn't know this road I’m on
I pray we make it home
My king my son, my throne, to carry on
Word bond
Bridge:
I‘ll be standing on square
Wherever I go I'm right here
Even when there’s fear
My guiding light shines clear
Lifting me above the crowd
Eagle’s view above the clouds
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hook:
Baby, if you lose your way
It's only a prayer away
Your guiding light
Your North Star
Is with you, everywhere you are
Baby, if you lose your way
It's only a prayer away
Hold on
To your dreams
Remember you're a king
You’re a king
