LYRICS FOR "Atonement"
As I wait for atonement Trapped in the heat of the moment Feelin' like I can't control it
As I wait for atonement Trapped in the heat of the moment
Uh, huh, feelin' the steam from the cauldron With tension runnin' deep as the ocean Many are called but so few are chosen As I go through the motions
Of medication uppin' my dosage Bangin' Earth, Wind and Fire 'Devotion' as I admire the focus Takin' the city with a grain of salt Where they tastin' foul, chase it down, with the latest malt
Liquor roll and hit it, knife did it Hope you got some smarts wit'chu Hope you got some heart It ain't no stoppin' when it start, nigga
Feel somethin' bigger got a hold on me And I ain't trippin' not a Bobby Brown, lippin' with my nose runnin' Basically I had two options I just chose one And then got ghost like my picture was on a most wanted
Coast to coast, from L.A. to Chicago Now I'm faced, with the weight of survival Plus the taste from the way I been lied to While the preacher man spittin' his gospel, I can win if I try to
As I wait for atonement Trapped in the heat of the moment Feelin' like I can't control it
As I wait for atonement Trapped in the heat of the moment
