Ellevate - Deliverance Lyrics

All my east coast heads gotta stay strong, all my west coast heads gotta stay strong
Mid-west keep your heads up won't be long, south-side represent it's a new dawn

Hard to face like a cold frigid winter
Often lies underneath the skin like a splinter
Heads placing faulty keystones at the center
In ice storms walking tight ropes Wallenda
And it really ain't a mystery
The fall of man did us in check the history
Reality of undeniable atrocities
Convinced ourselves of sinister philosophies
And it hardly ever starts with a game plan
Enter one way exit a different man
If you think too hard you'll never understand
It's a matter of the heart and the spirit man
And it gets passed around like a spliff do
Every man takes part know it's out to get you
Many styles many forms many ways
The whirlwind leaves us all in a daze

All my east coast heads gotta stay strong, all my west coast heads gotta stay strong
Mid-west keep your heads up won't be long, south-side represent it's a new dawn

I want it all I want it now
But the more I get the more I don't know how
Let the seed grow changed the inner profile
Inner turmoil masked with a bright smile
Lights cameras action not on a set though
Real life ain't scripted like reality shows
And for the squeaky clean can't rely on the pros
Not even accolades can guarantee a pure soul
When these strongholds got us in a choke hold
And the worst of our fears start to unfold
We've become what we swore we would never be
Some things even chased us right down our family tree
Now we're like Amistad give us free
And some are in denial of any iniquity
But it's inherited so no man is immune
It's an earth thing I'm headed for the moon

All my east coast heads gotta stay strong, all my west coast heads gotta stay strong
Mid-west keep your heads up won't be long, south-side represent it's a new dawn

These evil tendencies gotta come with remedies
Put my Bruce Lee on my worst enemies
Deliver me from a worldly mentality
Save my soul from a sin-sick tragedy
If it is to be let it all start with me
Let the air out the wheels end the cycle free
Me from my oppressiveness so that I can see
The way to You and the end of my captivity
To the young man trapped in the game
To the young girl holding on to the pain
To everybody living life full of shame
Let them chains fall like a monsoon rain
From our felonies toxic dependencies
Alcohol cocaine and amphetamines
Losing clear sight crushing our hopes and dreams
Jesus Christ we're in need of a vaccine

All my east coast heads gotta stay strong, all my west coast heads gotta stay strong
Mid-west keep your heads up won't be long, south-side represent it's a new dawn
