Phalair - promise land Lyrics

Yeah, look
They promise land like fitting, do not let me go
Sweaty hands steady slipping from that ancient gold
Pressure make diamonds, too much making broken cold

I feel eroded like that stone on the lake shore
As if the storyline told to predict the boat
And all the problems that I drown rise above the cold
Cause the more that I resist, the more that mirror shows

Look, I swear I wake up in the morning feeling like the sky in Washington
Sorry I've been sorting through my goals, they ain't blossoming
Seeking validation like I never got a compliment
Lately I've been pondering the process of accomplishments

Am I trying to rap as a product of impoverishment
When you sleeping on an air mattress, best believe it is
I'ma get the land that I'm promised
And I don't give a f*ck we're living on that shit
Why?
Cause everybody and they mama got a promised land
Can't pay a single bill with no promises
Keep my promise to my dreams knowing I can live
Ain't no sense in giving up if you're down for this

Cause I've been giving everything for that promised land
And we've been giving everything for that promised land
And I've been giving everything, hope it's worth the man
Look, I cannot let them get the best of me

I'm feeling way too cutthroat, feeling newsworthy like Suburbia's missing white hoes
Told my nigga Fisher I had that bag since the tadpole
Hopping out the lake of all we ran till the bank closed
If it's opposition tell they mama get their church closed

At the funeral wearing that purple label sports coat
Chi till it's over cause the locks look Floridian
I'ma get the whip that's cold-blooded like reptilians
Watch a nigga win again, setting up with confidence

Turn me into Chamberlain
I don't need no chain bitch, in the same kicks
Feeling fresher than a side of your jaw with a peppermint
At the pepper pitch, niggas fighting out my window

Niggas shooting at the moon while I play Nintendo
Now I'm 21 still playing the same shit that Guys I went the school
With the niggas, with the new clips
Why? Cause everybody and their mama got a promised land

Can't pay a single bill with no promises
Keep my promise to my dream knowing I can live
Ain't no sense in giving up if you're down for this
I've been giving everything for that promised land

Cause we've been giving everything for that promised land
And I've been giving everything, hope it's worth the man
I've been led astray again, do not take my promised land

Every day I just pray I Don't break my promises
Every day I just pray I Don't break my promises
Every day I just pray I Don't break my promises
Every day I just pray I Don't break my promises
I've been led astray again
I've been led astray again
I've been led astray again
I've been led astray again
I've been led astray again
Do not take my Promise Land.
