lyrics

Verse 1:
Heart to rhythm lay soul to the vibe.
Mind races to the finish leaving demons behind.
I pray to the high in the gift that is mine.
When I'm lost in divide defeat and decline.
The roads full of peril but you have the wheel.
Make your own destiny play the cards in deal.
If you ain't got cop another deck for real.
When my cups half empty I get a refill.
Soul poor on the page making rhythmic terrain.
Aftershock in the phrase artisan blood in my veins.
God gave me the life but I chose that path.
Chose to do what I love generate raps.
Can't let the mind unwrap because life's gone in a flash.
Heart stops or the strap before I'm taking the nap.
I'm blazing a path spark that with one match.
And bathe in the ash I quest for the task.
Flesh will die music lives for sure.
Heart in these words soul sits in the chords.
Pen dances on the page like the tides and the shores.
Storm of spiritual force born in infinite form.
Chorus 1:
Born in fire burning faith.
You lead me not a Stray.
Born in fire burning faith.
You lead me not a Stray.

Verse 2:
Without a passion that's mine life's hollow and tried.
Only thing truly mine is fam beat and the rhyme.
Baptized in the vibe where I reside.
What I create is my church and faith.
Keep chipping at the slate until its curtains and drapes.
And my soul levitates I'm meeting my make.
Gas in the race like I took out the breaks.
My faith prayer and testament.
Ready it each regiment.
No material excrement.
Just eloquent elements.
Enveloping each development.
Keeping my soul resonant until I'm old and delicate.
And my spirit leaves its residence.
This my story that's all we are in the end.
Will you be a fable or the truth my friend.
Meraki is the name hands born for the pen.
Cut from a different tapestry cloth and thread.
Chorus 2:
Born in fire burning faith.
You lead me not a Stray.
Born in fire burning faith.
You lead me not a Stray.

Outro:
Beautiful Struggle.
Wayward grace.
Travel blind but only way.
Gave me love gave me Pain.
Born in fire burning faith.
You lead me not a Stray.
Travel blind but only way.
Beautiful Struggle.
Wayward grace.
