Mercy Lyrics by Phora

One Life To Live

2013

[Verse 1: Phora
Yeah, they gonna see the outcome
Count my blessings every time I have one
It never comes easy when you lazy on the subject
Wait a sec, why for?
Better yet, ready for the mic check
Fuck em, never break a sweat
Pay my gas, pay my dues
No matter what, I'm stayin true
Never far from nonsense cause momma didn't raise a fool
Gotta keep it movin, I ain't with that bullshit
Don't talk about it, I do it
Take action and seek improvement
So follow my footsteps to the state of relevance, only place that's making sense, speaking from experience
Point at blank paper, yeah I'm tired of it all
Tryin to paint a picture when you don't know how to draw
Yo, I do this for my family, I do this for my folks
I do this for the cats who used to take me as a joke, the ones that doubted me and said that I'd never amount to nothing
And even though they hate, I'm still brought up in their discussions
All the sudden get the time of day, last time I felt the hate
Appreciate, you never did, so I stay devilish
Insecure, you never know for sure
With this shit I endure, always leavin me, mature
Yo, nothin but love in my heart for the cats who feel my struggle
Cause sending drugs and doin deals don't really mean you hustle
Nah, cause it ain't hard to sell dope to a fiend
That ain't respect, you should try reaching your goals and your dreams
Cause I'm thicked skin, shoot opinions down, like you gotta be
Not losin sleep over lowlife fuckery
Social suicide with these Geminis, see you on the rise and do nothin but despise
And you gotta watch for them snakes kid
Trust isn't common round as every other hate is
And they quick to end your life over some lunch money
And everyone's hungry, we all gotta eat but ain't enough food for all of our tummies so
And it can't stop, and it won't stop, and it don't stop til we make your body rock
Here we get down, never listen to what the haters say, and when you see us comin better make some way
And it won't stop, and it don't stop til we make your body rock
Here we get down, never listen to what the haters say, and when you see us comin better make some way
And your bad habits, it goes without saying
You don't understand, then you don't know what you missin
Sucked in like a gold mind, belief is hard to find
Read between the lines, so get left behind
Yo, after all's said and done, I stay true to my people
Never follow they rules cause these fools can deceive you
Look, I'll never ride with the niggas I didn't walk with
I'll never eat with the people I didn't starve with
On the high pedestal, but you so miniscule
Tryin to be the best but you lackin the pole
Yeah, back at square run when I hit the home run
Left you in the dirt, cause that's what you deserve
And homie, I ain't with the bs, I just wanna live drama free
But every now and then I hear the devil calling me, temptin the innocent
They say we all human, but karma is a bitch and she don't like hearing excuses, nigga
And it can't stop, and it won't stop, and it don't stop til we make your body rock
Here we get down, never listen to what the haters say, and when you see us comin better make some way
And it won't stop, and it don't stop til we make your body rock
Here we get down, never listen to what the haters say, and when you see us comin better make some way
