Shalom (Feat. John Givez)

Should I run, should I run away Should I run away and never look back oh no, oh no How could I ever go back the way I left I'll be rapping my tail off truly on my lizard flow Brother, I ain't scared though Running through this jungle and I'm feeling like a nomad No, man no more letting these opinions drive a boat to no man's Land in the sand and maybe you will live the kodak Moment after moment every time you need to go back And recuperate to the lab again, drawing board or labyrinth Hunger's like a labrador retriever and it's back again Hello tryna not be othello I believed the hype, mistaking grapes for morellos Didn't realize that it would taste sour Every second, every hour, certainly was not godiva I was certain I was ready for this journey unknown It's better not to know how the journey unfolds If I knew, man, I'd run away, I'd run away Like a coward I would cower, never taking steps of faith Should I run, should I run away Should I run away and never look back oh no, oh no How could I ever go back the way I left Man, I'm looking for some peace Some peace of mind cause I got it so conflicted I put the focus all about chasing dreams And neglected living out my convictions wait a minute I gotta pause and recall why I did it in the first place Never entered in this race to be first place Cause the last shall be put ahead I truly hope this adventure is budapest Beautiful is the campaign Can't blame everybody for my bad aim And back pain all because of low standards I'm shooting at going for the max damage Feeling insecure cause the money short handed Drinking my pride by the pints and the gallons Maybe it's true that I made a mistake For not being a coward and taking these steps of faith How you feeling I'm feeling good today Shalom, cause everything will be okay Give me a second to recollect They tell me my record is irregular They talking I walk a line between sacred and secular Save it for the reckoners, it's red in my eyes I'm tip toeing through these terminals and floating in skies I see my clout up in the clouds, clouded by the thousands Of people tellin' me that with my words they get aroused This route dun' kept me from around the way I'm hardly home my momma wonder if I'm sound and safe The safest sound is in my hotel, sending off my hope mail I need some peace and quiet speaking to God is hard to do now If I'm honest all this talk about what ima do now as an artist Isn't it all it's cracked up to be, crack a smile for company Accompanied with questions 'bout the quest I'm on for greatness I question if these people look at me and think I'm famous It's crazy cuz, I started making music for some peace A way to get away from all the drama in the streets, should I run
