[Chorus: Sample of "Ribbon in the Sky" by Stevie Wonder]
Not a coincidence, and far more than a lucky chance
But what is that was always meant
Is a ribbon
[Verse 1]
I go in on a notion
Speaking with this beacon through out his teachings
He showing me devotion
He serve flows in this poetry emotion
If I get too deep, pardon me, I'm just going through the motions
Just stayin afloat, boat in the ocean
My pain's big as migraine for a multrant
I come from a full house like the Olsen twins
Early 90's lot of crack back then
Turn my father evil, never been in the private house
The only addicts I knew was real people
And the streets is nothing sweet but we equal
Gotta understand, it's nothing sweet, but we equal
Fuck the grind, these haters poppin to kill you
I'm color blind, I know that green paper with the Eagle
And through the sins, the Lord's gonna forgive him
Thanks for the gift of life, I'ma keep the ribbon
[Chorus: sample]
Not a coincidence, and far more than a lucky chance
But what is that was always meant
Is a ribbon
[Verse 2]
You could tell by the crowd I'm great
Certain style I make, came from 3 vowels now I re evaluate
With this gift of life, I'm Superman, no kryptonite
And I blew, I could be a Crip tonight
Analyzing what lies just right in front of us
And realize there ain't going side with none of us
Meaning the government
I know this kid four who parents got killed
He asking me where his mother went
Man, life is so precious
I pray my daughter and godson get they extras
Meaning more, even though I spit this raw
I still got similar problems, that's for a Tim McGraw
We all grown men, was once teens before
Understand there's nothing I never seen before
Know the Lord gon' forgive him
But thanks for the gift of life, I got the ribbon
[Chorus: sample]
Not a coincidence, and far more than a lucky chance
But what is that was always meant
Is a ribbon
Not a coincidence, and far more than a lucky chance
But what is that was always meant
Is a ribbon
