I share the same blood as Emmett and Medgar Our mamas prayed for us So bless the protectors When Black boys die the reaper collects us Forget our trespasses and forgive our debtors Like we not owed a fortune and fame I was promised 40 acres in my grandfather's name I got 30 years of pain and nigga that ain't the same I got 20 in the classroom just writing my name Like hold up The angels saying slow up It's instilled in you and nigga you about to blow up Glow up The crowds are singing your stuff They sounding like the Heavens when they bowing to the GOAT HALÉS HALÉS HALÉS HALÉS Holy water running down my back Touches my spine and enters my skin I thought that this water was supposed to cleanse my sins Blowing smoke to forget that I'm dying Getting lifted trying to fill my soul In this world I created my heart beats unnaturally slow I thought I was dead inside The angels were singing goodnight I know how my thoughts can run wild You told me I was going to hell Spoke down on me You prayed I would fail I'm having an epiphany I Am STILL HOLY Chasing another version of me One that the people wanted to see But I gotta move on For Heaven's sake Please don't tell me that I'm getting older Cause I wish had the years all back But I gotta move on For my own sake I thought I was dead inside The angels were singing goodnight I know how my thoughts can run wild You told me I was going to hell Spoke down on me You prayed I would fail I'm having an epiphany I Am STILL HOLY Ah Ah Ah All I can do is pray that I Pray that I Ah Ah Ah All I can do is pray that I make it to Heaven I'm praying to Heaven I'm praying to Heaven And I'm asking God to let me in Oh let me in I'm praying that it's not in vain, Lord I want my name in your book so I work hard Will Heaven sound like the horns that we're all taught Playing Hallelujah to the angels I thought I was dead inside The angels were singing goodnight I know how my thoughts can run wild His spirit has kept me alive My angels are holding me tight This water restoring my spine I am STILL HOLY Let it be known that I don't want no funeral for sadness There is nothing to be sad for I didn't live so loudly for y'all to be huddled in quiet corners Praying and wishing that I was still here That would make my living in vain Tell the truth Tell them that I was a warrior Tell them that I fought for freedom That I gave my life so others could be happy Tell them that I came like a dragon That I spit hot fire on microphones and left people's inner baggage sitting on their laps Tell them that this was purposeful That God sent me to be a mirror to them and an anchor to myself But tell them that I floated That the anchor wasn't strong enough for me That I wasn't grounded to anything or anyone Tell them that I was troubled That there were voices in my head that I never spoke about Tell them that my mind played tricks on me all day long That I found no peace in myself That my body shook every morning and trembled every night before bed Tell them that God spoke to me in my own voice Tell them that I needed hugs That I was human Tell them that I didn't understand how unconditional love verbally sounded right Yet physically hurt Tell them that I was passionate That I loved with all of me Tell them that my blood was tainted by the hands of wicked men with pitchforks and guiding lights Tell them that I was never whole That I pieced myself together with the broken glass from my daddy's police car Tell them I want a casket just like my daddy's One I ain't never seen Tell them I get to see him and hold him And maybe that will settle the score with the boys on Earth And he will remind me of how Holy I am He will lift my head and tell me to never look down again Because anything beneath me has been washed away by the River of Jordan I am HOLY I am STILL HOLY I am STILL HOLY I am STILL HOLY Yeah
