Gentry Kozia - Philautia Lyrics

Listen
Beautiful morning
I hear the birds chirping
Laying in my bed
That little voice in my head (Mr Kozia)
Saying black man get up
You've gotta show this world
That you're more than you're hood (its your time)
Being labeled up to no good
My melanin's poppin
Different shades can't stop it
And I'm on my way (where to?)
To a glory place
Where I can be
Totally free being me
And this is not narcissism
It's just selfism
I'm on Philautia
So addicted now I've got
Myopia
And I can't see your hate
High on Philautia
I'm so high I can't come down
Causing Myopia
And I can't see your hate
I found the peace in my soul
I can hear the angels go (oooh)
I don't fear a thing
I'm covered by the blood in his name (yes lawd!)
And I look good on Sunday
You better keep an eye on your girl looking my way
My confidence on overload
(I've got a) six pack (makeover) six figures and I'll make her quiver
My melanin's poppin
Different shades can't stop it
And I'm on my way
To a glory place
Where I can be
Totally free being me
And this is not narcissism
It's just selfism
I'm on Philautia
So addicted that I now have
Myopia
I can't see the hate
High on Philautia
I'm so high I can't look down
Causing Myopia
I feel so good
Who I am
I will never change it
If you don't like who I am
I don't give a damn
I work day and night
On who I am
Got myself right
I'll never go back to who I once was
It's not narcissism
It's selfism
I'm on Philautia
So addicted that I have
Myopia
And I can't see the hate
High on Philautia
I'm so high I cant look down
Causing Myopia
And I can't see your hate
I'm on Philautia
So addicted that I have
Myopia
And I can't see the hate
High on Philautia
Causing Myopia
And I can't see the hate
