24-karat soul.

And I awoke….

And I found myself in the furnace, I'm fighting Nebuchadneezar but Jesus; he looked and he reached and he told me let go the reefer and other shit that's facetious, I'm speechless…

His nappy hair; it resembled mine & of Egypt

I drowned my soul in the waters, I found my youth in the fountain, my ex be watching and counting, my soul quadrupled in worth.

This journey could move a mountain; more hills than Clef & the Fugees, for all the hymnals that knew me; a lesson I learned since birth, thank the shine in my soul that kept me the dreams I stuffed in my luggage, the metal detector buzzing - Swear TSA keep on hating.

"Sir please just step to the side; it's too many dreams in your luggage". I rolled my eyes, "y'all be buggin" (you know I'm gon’ miss my flight).

A Spirit in karat gold, although women want the wrong gold; how you overlook a dope soul, disillusions are rather brash, but I found a "use" in unusual, built the ark; I need two of you. Overlooked, but I'm beautiful (diamond ring in the trash).

Do you love like you say you do, Ugly swan but it's beauty too; laid an egg that was gold, but your heart ain't equally yoked, there's some lessons throughout this happiness nappy hair stayed afloat when the fortune cookie said 'nope' as I cracked it and crashed the boat.

Do you dream like you say you do; do you still hold that hope?

Hope your mama is well; if you need me, I'll throw a rope.

Hope my sistas embrace all their beauty and learn to float.

Hope you put down the bullshit and that nxgga can help you grow.

Maybe you'll look in mirrors today and you'll see the growth.

Hope that you know your substance ain't based on a like or comment.

Hope I let go of fear for the change and embrace what's coming.

How can I pray for you?
