by Manafest

Album: My Own Thing

Intro
What?
Okay
Yo, uh
Yo

Verse 1
Ayy yo, the question that drives us, the God inside us
Try to divide us, determines the survivors
Ya ever wonder I push the thought inside?
Start askin' questions 'cause you don't know
I simplify my life, amplify my mic
My sideways sight been born to spark life
Face to a name, name to a face, but, uh
Don't ask my God 'cause it's I AM
Journalist, word specialist
Questions to ya soul, how you livin'? Your minds ain't missin'
What's the cost of livin'? What's it take to make it?
Is my sex still sacred and do gays deface it?
I wage wars, ?, positive prerogatives
Apocalypse, rap topic list just to get it off my lips
I got to spit this, costumes and stitches
All I got is realness, don't care if you feel this, so what?

Chorus
I was just chillin' at the spot one time
Thinkin' people needin' answers to the questions on they minds
It's like, what's the purpose? Life's a circus
Start gettin' answers 'cause you don't know
I was just chillin' at the spot one time
Thinkin' people needin' answers to the questions on they minds
It's like, what's the purpose? Life's a circus
Start gettin' answers 'cause you don't know

Verse 2
Do you believe in God, or you a paganist, atheist?
Straight-faced 80's kid waiting for space aliens
Torn from religion, born-again Christians
Buddhists, Muslims, Talibans, the ones on they customs
Something to absorb, spiritually divorced
? of ending your life's course
It's like, "I don't need nobody
I'm godly in my own like philosophy, don't speak and talk to me"
Touch your mind, link massage therapist, various areas
Soul's canners 'cause there's something you should cherish
Where it is, it isn't, triple six digits glisten
The system likes its women and knowledge is not wisdom

Chorus
I was just chillin' at the spot one time
Thinkin' people needin' answers to the questions on they minds
It's like, what's the purpose? Life's a circus
Start gettin' answers 'cause you don't know
I was just chillin' at the spot one time
Thinkin' people needin' answers to the questions on they minds
It's like, what's the purpose? Life's a circus
Start gettin' answers 'cause you don't know

Verse 3
Yo, yo
When you're feeling a story not yet accomplished
Brothers talkin' nonsense, I'll tell you who my God is
Fiction ain't a theory, clean your ears and hear me
Leary of the content, the Bible's not a
What the hell is goin' on? Stayin' true to yourself
This world owes you nothin', but I know Christ can help
What the real truth about a person's happiness?
It's all good now, but it's about what comes after it


Chorus
I was just chillin' at the spot one time
Thinkin' people needin' answers to the questions on they minds
It's like, what's the purpose? Life's a circus
Start gettin' answers 'cause you don't know
I was just chillin' at the spot one time
Thinkin' people needin' answers to the questions on they minds
It's like, what's the purpose? Life's a circus
Start gettin' answers 'cause you don't know
