devil tryna get me - shift haq lyrics

intro
(crying)

[verse 1:shift haq]
i had the heater turned on warm water flowing
splash on my face eyes open shadow behind saying
“u will regret, u will regret
i want u on my side the whole thing would be a secret”
next thing i know the figure vanished in thin air
this is the exact reason why i’m missing a snare
skipping a heart beat or a hard kick in the beat
can’t concentrate, depressed, deep down getting weak
becoming ill, 4 am but can’t sleep
no pills not a puff of the green, still sick
smooth with the att-tude, rude with the family
that raised me then made me feel like the canopy
self centered -ss hole is what it made me be
a self taught person true wasn’t into perjury
tortured me with faith loosing thoughts can’t reveal
let it be let us see how long the devil tricks!

[chorus]
devil trying to get me i’m like a convict running
mind numb too many charges on me
not free nor on my own not high or drunk
i can’t think of these rhymes got a bag of sh-t in the trunk
i’m depressed with who i am who i might be in the future
can’t break barriers trying to represent my culture
fighting against myself to put it together
each step i take the load seems to get heavier

[verse 2:shift haq]
picked up a pen paper started jotting down words
stopped glanced it was like un-grinded buds
prayer call echoing loud all over the place
i wrinkled the paper listened a line that says
prayer is indeed more important than sleeping
next thing u know i was getting myself ready
prayer mat on the floor said my prayers done
only one creator -ssociated with none
finishing namaz my whole body seemed relaxed
all whispering thoughts in my brain gone d-mn
a strong force of peace and console took over me
laid my head on the pillow eyes closed but i cud see
my mind working depression was a devils act
evil tries to mind block then f-ck its a fact
if u lack belief trust just hope for the best
don’t get greedy and do a taboo to stand out from the rest
we all blessed since the day we were in the womb
if i wasn’t i would have been with pharaohs in the tomb
or maybe i wouldn’t be able to see even the blind is blessed
he can walk talk and hear every human is the best
its a test if u fail gotta try some other day
just pray to who u believe relief will come your way
different people many preferences i ain’t trying to impose
anything on anyone like a teacher on a white board

[chorus 2]
devil trying to get me i’m like a convict running
i say my prayers it feels like no charges on me
i’m free i’m on my own not high or drunk
i’m still sick on these rhymes got a bag of hope in the trunk
i’m happy with who i am and who i might be in the future
breaking the barriers yet representing my culture
fighting against the system that made it
the light just bestowed upon me lord keep it lit

[outro]
lord keep it lit
lord lord keep it lit
