eyekonoklas+ - o'hene savant lyrics
[verse 1]
ay
everything i do is for the culture
i would rather give it up than give another record if the record wasn’t awesome
grew up in the black church with a nondenominational and pentecostal
we was teaching and preaching the gospel
doing outreach for the people at all who would want to hear it
catching the spirit, hoping the holy ghost would make an appearance
in the middle of the motherland
with another man’s god and tryin’ to be serious
man, i was just a [?], problems through my pre-k
see my biological peeps ain’t have it so they couldn’t really relay back
when i was a little kid
my mother tried to put me up on
some of the things i mighta slept on
later than i wrote and now i’m stressed for it
now i’m looking back in hindsight
i can understand and now i found why
monuments are merely made of clay plus
if you’re hot enough you can melt cast iron
[chorus]
when i was a little kid, my mama told me read the bible
and it is where i first read you should never ever have a idol
never ever have a idol
never ever have a idol
never ever have a idol
(not in those words, but)
when i was a little kid, my mama told me read the bible
and it is where i first read you should never ever have a idol
never ever have a idol
never ever have a idol
never ever have a idol
iconoclast
[verse 2]
everybody has a idol, in the beginning
everybody is a wannabe
some of us are always wanna be somebody that we’re not so that’s what we’re gonna be
in the beginning you lack confidence that you’re gonna need to have
if you ever plan to walk in the steps of the greats, it’s a very narrow path
but it’s funny how the very thing that’ll make you great, you respect for the greats
wonder you gon’ have to break if you wanna run, if you wanna levitate
now i’m looking at the legendary artistry and legacy that i create
i can finally say i found my place in the game, not to mention built a name
so tell me if i’m right, tell me if i’m wrong
tell me if i write and produce a song
if everything i do is super duper strong, tell me why so many wouldn’t put me on
and if they got a well, why they gotta drink outta my gl-ss
but it’s all good when your mama showed you where the river at (tell ’em, o)
a wise man said, “o’hene, ni–as steal your project”
but i’ll be d-mned if they ever figure out the process
‘stead of seeing me as part of the lineage, they would rather do a contest
i don’t really understand the mindset, but now i recognize what mom said ‘cause
[chorus]
when i was a little kid, my mama told me read the bible
and it is where i first read you should never ever have a idol

never ever have a idol
never ever have a idol
(not in those words, but)
when i was a little kid, my mama told me read the bible
and it is where i first read you should never ever have a idol
never ever have a idol
never ever have a idol
never ever have a idol

listen, in the beginning you will look up to your idol. that’s when you idolize. then you’ll grow up, and you’ll look in your idol’s eyes. at that point, you will realize that you have become the person that you always admired. iconoclast. my kind of cl-ss
