Promises Lyrics by Greg

State of the Art (SOTA)

2015

[Intro]
So what's that life like on the road
(I wanna know)
What that life like, can you show?
(Can you show me)
But sure would I like to know, the places I'd like to go
But god its safe to say I do what it takes if you put me on

[Hook]
So I promise that I would go the church like every single week
I promise that I never say I'm in it just to leave
Money, power, pussy man that's all I really need
Don't get me wrong I work and understand this ain't for free
And I know, I know that I'm gon' get it til its done
I know I'm in this shit for real and not because its fun
And I can't wait no more I gotta get it while I'm young
And I know that I deserve 'cuz I'm the one

[Verse 1]
Yeah, at least I hope
I tell my team they can wait on me
But it's getting kinda hard with all this weight on me
But now I'm in the DMV, on track you ain't seeing me
Now I'm finna blow like a mothafucking TNT
And break through like a [?], I'm like bang
East side with a few boys, they 'round and it's all clear (yea)
I'm really meant for this shit
No lie, all truth like I'm Paul Pierce
Yeah we wanna ball here like Mr. Clean
Won't walk in your shoes I'll split the [?]
Yeah, you can't see what I see when I sleep
So I know you don't get to dream but that's me

[Hook]
I wanna know
I mean it's been good, but it's only getting better
But is it too much if you allow my mind to live forever
For that I promise that I go to church like every single week
I promise that I never say I'm in just to leave
'Cuz money, power, pussy, man that's all i really
Nah, nah, nah fuck that shit my family is all i really need
I know, I know that I'm gon' get til its done
I know I'm in this shit for real and not because it's fun
And i can't wait no more I gotta get it while I'm young
And i know that I deserve it because I know I'm the one
Go to church a hundred times a week
