J. Nolan - Blue Skies lyrics
rate meI took the road less traveled, my path clean
Still I wake up from bad dreams
And suffering crack fiends with the virus
Brothers need vaccines, from filling their bodies with narcotics
That come from balance and beams, and scales
Never fails that their structure is frail
Cops trying to throw me under the jail
Never come up with the bail
Stuck in the cell, see my trust going stale
So called friends is tucking they tail, busting a shell
For deceased homies, the streets know me as an artist
I’m the farthest from the block
Never tried to be the hardest
I’m the smartest, though I'm modest
Keep it honest, I'm a target
Evil spirits trying to tarnish, everything that I’m involved in
Bi-partisan, manifest, tithes offering
Sacrificing happiness like it was God’s ordering
9 sparking, we stop talking, and dodge all of it
Crime organization nationwide I ain’t part of it man
[Hook]
The only thing on my mind, be a soldier for God
Till I’m in the blue skies, it’s gon' be a long ride
So I’m taking my time, I’ll be going for mine
Till I’m in the blue skies, and even if I should die
Only thing on my mind, be a soldier for God
Till I’m in the blue skies, it’s gon' be a long ride
So I’m taking my time, I’ll be going for mine
Till I’m in the blue skies
Redefining myself, through the heart ache
Hard days trying to congregate with a like mind, just like mine
Night time sight blind, never see light shine
Unless you reside by the clubs
Riding with a grudge, cause it’s 500 thugs
Mean muggin in the parkin lot, bout to fire slugs
These the hoods that I be talking bout
See the man walking out, shoot a man, toss the glock
Leave him there, see his head, leaking like a coffee pot
Nobody seen it so the charges drop
We all seen it but we know the law
Taught not to talk to cops, hard knocks raw plots
Running from the pigs like Islamics from a pork chop
Europe from the small pox, the world colder than a bald spot
Turning our backs like jehova’s witness when we hear the door knocks
Guns popping off like the first one the ball drop
Their souls burning like a small fry, Lord
[Hook]
The only thing on my mind, be a soldier for God
Till I’m in the blue skies, it’s gon' be a long ride
So I’m taking my time, I’ll be going for mine
Till I’m in the blue skies, and even if I should die
Only thing on my mind, be a soldier for God
Till I’m in the blue skies, it’s gon' be a long ride
So I’m taking my time, I’ll be going for mine
Till I’m in the blue skies
Coming up short with the ends, wanting a Benz
And I don’t hardly get spins, dawg it depends
Like the diaper, maybe if I could spark up a trend
For washing our sins, then I can see the ultimate cleanse
From all the dirt that I encounter, moving further from the doubters
Looking for small sailing like the surface of a counter
But the hurt that I devour, gets worsened by the hour
Got the internet but can't purchase a router
All these troubles got me up on the verge
Of going searching for that powder
Feeling thirsty when this search be going sour
I ain’t trippin though, little known fact, I’m fin to blow
Get your coat, time to pass it off, like a pick and roll
Give and go, get the dough, from the independent flow
I ain’t in it for the money, homie it’s the principle
God blessed me with the soul
And he told me I should show it,
By the pound, I’ma do it for as long as I’m around
Put it down boy!
[Hook]
The only thing on my mind, be a soldier for God
Till I’m in the blue skies, it’s gon' be a long ride
So I’m taking my time, I’ll be going for mine
Till I’m in the blue skies, and even if I should die
Only thing on my mind, be a soldier for God
Till I’m in the blue skies, it’s gon' be a long ride
So I’m taking my time, I’ll be going for mine
Till I’m in the blue skies.
