what if…
• Written by CSL
What if I stayed unrecognized
For the rest of my life
Tryna sell dreams, through these schemes, it’s remedial healing
I ain’t chasing wealth, it helps when I recognize what I’m feeling
I shed my skin, sacraments, sacrilege, fuck what the pastor thinks
Tryna figure out how my memories die, but my past still lives
And we all sin, we all took a bite out the apple, don’t try and hide it
I’ve been steady tryna kill my ego, but look what the pride did
Lust turns to greed and my thoughts turn violent, truthfully I’m spiraling
Maybe I’m glutton for punishment, got a whole story if you look behind these eye lids
I ain’t no god of war, I’m at war with god, still got a whole sort of problems to be solved
Can I be resolved? Absolved of my sins? Last few years something’s been off
I been clean from those drugs, prayed to the holy father above
Didn’t believe him at first, everybody told me feel his love
How am I supposed to believe in heaven, when he put me through hell?
Still searching for my soul, lost in the depths where I dwelled
Tried to kill my ego, said fuck it, had to reach deeper for a new subject
And I’m still feeling lost, tryna refund my pride, what’s the cost?
And I hope all you fake prophets get nailed to a cross
So I can watch em all bleed, maybe it’s my greed telling me these things
You ain’t no diety, you’ll be seeing me, I’m coming for you any week
Imma cleanse this shit, flush out the sinners with my penmanship
I ain’t selling my soul, and honestly you can’t sell me shit
Keep your receipts, you can’t beat me, I see the envy been tryna leak
And you all talking shot, I’m taking aim, fire til I don’t hear a peep
What if I stayed unrecognized
For the rest of my life
What if I killed you right now, would they all feel pain?
Tears streaming from the eyes from the ones you claim
That place above the rest, I don’t mean to judge but my case won’t rest
Come and place those bets, see who survive when the rage gon set
I ain’t even reached my peak, I get better every week, I’m incomplete
Trust me he delusional if he think he gonna beat on me
What if I told you, that greed, lust, pride had lead to my wrath
But grace keeps telling me I should choose a new path
Can we all entertain the idea of peace or is this album pointless
Had to open your eyes to the shit that no one has spoken
All we want is calm attitudes and a place for everybody to grow
Had to point out the flaws, maybe now we can all get along
Cause we all sinned, no innocence, Corinthians said keep no record of the wrongs
Tryna figure out how I can start revolution, inspire healing with a song
I just pray for the best, but calls get rejected, fighting for a spot up in heaven
Why did I only name 4 deadly sins, when in total there’s seven?
Cause those 4 what drives us, human nature it’s a touchy subject
We were born to sin since Adam and Eve and the apple when they were told not to touch it
So I guess I’m saying I understand what we all tryna prove
Cause your lust can turn to greed if your pride don't move
What if I stayed unrecognized
For the rest of my life…
