BE A SAINT Lyrics by Saint West

2024

I walk through the valley, shadows never sleep
Got the weight of the world, promises I can't keep
Momma prayed for a saint, but I’m deep in the sin
Devil's on my shoulder, and he's whisperin' again
Sacrifice and pain, it’s the life that I chose
Hustlin' for the bread, where the dark river flows
Tryna cleanse my soul, but the water’s full of stains
They say be a saint, but I'm chained to the flames
Chorus:
Be a saint, they say, rise above the hate
Break the chains that bind, don’t let ‘еm seal your fate
Be a saint, thеy preach, but I’m lost in the fight
Searching for the light, in the dead of the night
Verse 2:
Angels and demons, they both wear the same face
Caught between the lines, in this cold-hearted race
They say peace is the answer, but the war never ends
Every shot that I fire, echoes where the road bends
Poverty and crime, the sermon of the streets
You either fall or you climb, the struggle's bittersweet
Father, can you hear me? I'm calling through the pain
Be a saint, they tell me, but I’m dancing in the rain
Chorus:
Be a saint, they say, rise above the hate
Break the chains that bind, don’t let ‘em seal your fate
Be a saint, they preach, but I’m lost in the fight
Searching for the light, in the dead of the night
Bridge:
In the mirror, I see a man who's tryna change
Scars on my soul, but the fire still remains
Redemption’s a battle, fought in the heart
They tell me to be a saint, but where do I start?
The path is narrow, and the struggle is real
But I’m reaching for something that I can feel
A higher purpose, a name in the sky
Be a saint, they whisper, but I’m just getting by
Chorus:
Be a saint, they say, rise above the hate
Break the chains that bind, don’t let ‘em seal your fate
Be a saint, they preach, but I’m lost in the fight
Searching for the light, in the dead of the night
Outro:
So I walk through the fire, and I carry the weight
Hoping one day I’ll rise, and it won’t be too late
Be a saint, they told me, but I’m still on the grind
In this maze of life, tryna free my mind
