A Poor Man’s Parable Lyrics by Shawn Smith

Sink or Swim: A Shawn Smith Story

0

Generation going grusome glorifying gangs grabbing guns getting graphical generating grants grimey grinds growing gatful great JESUS gimmicking goons Glock gripping gangsters go gambling gifts god given greedy government garbaging ghettos gathering green grubbing good grandma gotta get groceries ??? generous genuine giving guidance globaly gospel gems
Opening oppurtunites overcoming oppresion occupy oath overshadow objection order and obidience observing ourselves optimizing openness overstepping on
Deals officers often offing the ordinaries outrageous obligated oppressors digging ditches daily dandelions daisies dieing desperate death damaging daughtless dads deeply desired doubling dollars dormant she dragged destroy dreams dangerously devotion devore drastic drama does debut deadliest doubters dedication determines destiny definitely do drug debt dunkery dikin desperately drew
Intelligence is important intellect is impeccable idolizing illusion impossible inexpectable I imagine igniting illumination instantly ignorance is interfering injuring imagery im imperial isolation ignores issues includes incomes influence insane ideas invest initiatating iconic insight inspirational im increasingly impactful involved in illiterate indicted in
Shackles showing saviour subsituting sickening sins slowly stressing strong soul signaling swim surely supporting servent showing securing spirit song sharp ??? salvation steady sharing savages so sad seeking sinister stress stay shielding struggle symbolize success sacrifice to get solo start sufficient steps
(Father talking to son) "You know how to swim?"
(Boy) "Yeah!"
(Father) "How you swim?"
(Boy) "I put my arms out like this. My feet like this. Thats how you swim."
Real recognize real really realize ??? residents risking retaliation reputation relevence remaining rebelious robbing reletives repent rage religious reverence reccommend Ecclesiastes evidently effect every early ethnicity eternal excellence easily error eventually experience empowerment establish efficiency
All abomination and agrivation aborted authentic ambition and awesomeness awarded aspirations alone accomplished
Learning life living legendary lacking limits longer loyalty live for less luggage lyricist lieing listeners loving larger lecture listen
(Shawn Smith): "If you look at my lyrics you can see GOD IS REAL. Look at my lyrics you see GOD IS REAL"
[Took an hour to type. First time ever submitting an edit for a song. But this inspired me. This is on another level of greatness. He's over here lowkey on some Black Thought level of lyricism. Respect to him I am just a random person who seen his freestyle on Sway and came to this. God Bless.]
