Promise Lyrics - Shaqisdope

Yeah 

Just Life, you know? 

But I promise 

[Verse 1] 

6 A.M. out in Cali staring at the window thinking about my life 

Ciara left I was so depressed when she had to go and catch a flight 

Thought I was in love with her but I knew it wasn't right 

These days, yeah I'm done with her I moved on and that's life 

Virgin Mary on my chain praying catching holy ghost 

Never entertain the rumors when they see my name 

Yeah that's just so and so 

Talk is cheap so I know they broke 

Approach me? Yeah I know they won't 

Humble dude but the coldest soul 

My grudges I could never let them go 

Lately I started to worship a [?] 

I wanted God to put me in position but now I want him to put me in Fendi 

Look how I'm thinking, my mind in a frenzy 

I make a move the more that they envy 

I make a call the choppers is ready 

But I want to live so please can you let me? 

I took a loss, it didn't upset me 

Prepare for the worst and right now I'm ready 

My heart and hands be feelin' so heavy 

So all this pressure that's on me so deadly 

Dog I think about my sister 

I just realized that she needed me 

But it's so hard to forgive her 

'Member how the world treated me? 

I was only 13, yeah this is suicide something eating me 

All in my head repeatedly thinking I'm nothing to grieve for I need to be 

My momma's side they want to speak to me cuz of some lies 

But now they believing me, F 'em 

I pray the karma forever gon' get 'em 

Seen in the streets and there's nothing to tell 'em 

Years ago I was a cold youngin' 

Used to scam folks just to hold something 

Kid from the ghetto with his nose running 

I just wanted fiends to have my phone buzzing 

All the cream and all the clothes, stuntin' 

All the drug dealers had the hoes coming 

Seen it all and I sure loved it 

When you from the hood use your own judgement

[Chorus] 

Thanks to the lord for keeping me safe 

Success the door to keeping my face 

But I want more I need an estate 

Mansion on the hill, the key to the wraith 

No more paying the bills, the paper is straight 

I want it now, don't think I can wait 

Whatever it takes, ain't losing my faith 

Get down on my knees and then I pray 

Think about how far I came, yeah that's everyday 

A lot of people mad, yeah I know they feel a way 

I gotta tell my story, that's the promise that I made

[Verse 2] 

Shout out to Flight, he ditchin' my life 

'Member when no one believed in me 

Gift that he seen in me, took us all to new heights 

Yeah we could never quit but you might 

I'm so obsessed with this when I write 

[?] a perfectionist, I'm too nice 

Hate that's a definite, but that's light 

They so irrelevant, out of sight 

I think it's evident, future bright 

[?] testament, had to fight 

Act like they really know me, not quite 

Long nights so it's despiration 

All I needed was some meditation 

Stay working now I'm really blazing came with more fire than a son of Satan 

Never hesitate to make a statement 

All this ever took was some dedication 

Each eye [?] 

Just to let them know a legend in the making (Whew!) 

Gotta risk it all, it's all on the table 

But if you fall there's nothing to save you 

I took a chance, was willing and able 

[Chorus] 

Thanks to the lord for keeping me safe 

Success the door to keeping my face 

But I want more I need an estate 

Mansion on the hill, the key to the wraith 

No more paying the bills, the paper is straight 

I want it now, don't think I can wait 

Whatever it takes, ain't losing my faith 

Get down on my knees and then I pray 

Think about how far I came, yeah that's everyday 

A lot of people mad, yeah I know they feel a way 

I gotta tell my story, that's the promise that I made
