Nappy Roots
Blind Faith
[Verse 1]
Yeah, what's the end result?
If I get it how I live, what happens to my soul?
I can't look back or I'ma turn to salt
Yesterday's in the past, today's not my fault (Nope)
Speakin' to myself, thinkin' positive thoughts
Stay focused on the dollar, keep my eye on the law
I'm ridin' 'til the wheels fall, engine and all
Wishin' for better days, I guess my timin' is off
I'm lookin' for a sign, I can tell that I'm lost
Please, Lord, save my soul like I'm nailed to the cross
"I can't take this shit no more", as I yell to the boss
Motherfuck this nine to five, no matter the cost
I'ma get it how I live like I started this verse
Know death is for certain but not tryin' is worse
Rent's due on the first and I already paid
'nough dues for a lifetime, sorry, I'm late

[Chorus]
I'm runnin (I'm runnin', yeah)
I ain't got faith anymore
Don't have no love anymore
I got no patience
I'm runnin' (I'm runnin')
And I can't take it no more
My faith, it all been so numb
Tired of waiting
I'm runnin'
[Verse 2]
Like a quarterback sneak
Unexpectedly I creep
Livin' life with no peace
Sane life with no grief
Take it all as it comes
No joy, pain, just numb
'Cause where I'm from's way beyond
[?]
We won't be here for long
We prolong what's to come
Ain't no garter wit' them heels, right?
Try tellin' that to them Isrealiates
Or a mother cryin' on the waitin' floor
[?] waitin' for
What the hell he made Satan for?
Pops ashamed, I won't say no more
Life is good if you livin'
Everybody, save the children
Every cop should hate the killers
They say, "God's good", I say, "Really?"
Wakin' up in a cold sweat
Every morning, I'm like, "Oh, shit"
Demons steady tryna push a n***a
Tryna make me lose my focus
[Chorus]
I'm runnin (Oh, oh)
I ain't got faith anymore
Don't have no love anymore
I got no patience
I'm runnin' (I'm runnin')
And I can't take it no more
My faith, it all been so numb
Tired of waiting
I'm runnin'

[Verse 3]
Jesus ain't the only way
But for those who think that he's the one
It's better to have the faith of a mustard seed than none
I thank God everyday (Everyday)
[?] woke me up to see the sun
Keep him as your co-pilot
Don't let religion steer you wrong
Focus on these ghetto songs
Hope in heaven, hear my songs
Dope is meltin' in my palms
I done blacked up several times
Chokin' in the devil's arms
At best, it's iffy
Fifty-fifty, yes, it's tricky
I confess like reverand [?]
[?]
When everything is said and done
Until then, we just having fun
Sure, sometimes, we succumb ('ccumb)
Still more signs yet to come (Come)
We just blind, deaf and dumb (Dumb)
We must have sex to come
Goin' nowhere fast, catch the run (Ha)
(Did you catch that?)
Goin' nowhere fast, catch the run
[Chorus]
I'm runnin' (Oh, oh), yeah
I ain't got faith anymore
Don't have no love anymore
I got no patience
I'm runnin'
And I can't take it no more
My faith, it all been so numb
Tired of waiting
I'm runnin'
