Mourning Star Lyrics by JID

2014

[Verse 1: 6LACK]
Won't take no coffee instead
Don't think that I need to say it
I'll have that knowledge in bed
The cause is so far from dead
My words are nutrients, take these vitamins all to the head
I think you know what I want
I'd be surprised if you don't
You knew my life from the jump
No need for playing along
That shit be takin' too long
Father, I'm eggin' it on
Keep looking if you're looking for average
I'm living proof, a human covered in magic
See, he equipped with wings, but he ain't give me the guide
So when that shit hits the fan, I just give it to God
Don't fear no bitch or no man
Won't take no look at your hand
Give me a mission, go ham
I power up like Gohan, Gohan (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
These niggas cloning, Lohan

[Chorus: 6LACK & India Shawn]
Should you stop believing?
I could be your reason
It could stop the bleeding
Dive in, deep in
Da da da da

[Verse 2: J.I.D]
Seem like I been killing shit, and I can't miss
Beam on that .40, boy, I can't miss
Every chick in my past? Can't miss
Whether they're in love or say I ain't shit
Teeth show, the game spit, fangs lift
Spent some change for a change
Out the hood, same nigga
M-hm, yeah, boy, that shit dangerous
Let them folks import, implore, deport, T-boys, C4
Then, bomb, we run, what's happening, nigga, re-run
Lord knows I'ma live it up because I know this is the eon
No pressure because I been here since it begun
Seen fire made, seen animals extinct and decayed
Adaptation and remade
Seen God's people become slaves
And it's still fucking with us 'til this very day
I been looking up to the sky respond s'il vous plaît
See, you say you love me, I don't see you daily
Seen your son on the cross
And he beat to blue and black and gray
Seven days, and then he raised
Now put your hands up to the sky the very fucking same way
When you see the cops, hands to the sky, same way
See what I'm saying? I'm kinda saying the same thing
I'm saying, I'm saying, mane

[Chorus: 6LACK & India Shawn]
Should you stop believing?
I could be your reason
It could stop the bleeding
Dive in, deep in
Da da da da

[Outro: Jon Taffer]
Other people say don't do this do that, don't do that do this
That's bullshit
When you say that you guys go back to your bars and your restaurants and do the same damn thing that you did before you came here; those are the statistics
So I'm not here to tell you don't do this do that, don't do that do this
I'm here to change the way you think
And if I can change the way you think, I can't help but change what you do
