Kazie - Faith Evans Lyrics

Uh
And all we ever had was faith
Through the highs and the lows
Ups and downs
You believe in God or a higher power
I swear it'll always get better if you believe
Just look at me, I'm living proof
Look
Sitting back watching life go different from how I planned it
Went from star athlete on a campus
To an artist with a canvas
Just to put my mama in the mansion
Or my niggas back home to do it massive
My worst fear is never seeing your purpose appear
Being a has-been
Last is being broke or in a casket
They ask me what you think you finna do
With trying to pursue this rap shit?
I know I ain't Hov but I'm hope for those that lack it
With the skill of the first pick
And hunger of the last pick
I felt like I was handpicked to lead with this canvas
And paint the perfect picture for my peers to understand it
I rise above it, you just in a bucket on some crab shit
I just wanna eat good, you know steak, crab, shrimp
And make the perfect album you can spin without a damn skip
I'm wrapped in the truth like rubber bands to the cash
While these other niggas run and go and stretch it like elastic
I lost friends to women and death, shit was tragic
But that was God showing me exactly where my path is
I guess you could say that faith was always on my side
Cause I know plenty niggas that had died
Or other niggas that don't have a roof on the boulevard they reside
Or a cell with a bail that's denied
Prayed and I cried for understanding in the pain I endured
I turned out good, I guess the damages were insured
And I'm sure
Uh
And faith was on my side
I just don't know why
He keeps on blessing me
Hey, and faith's been on my side
He's been good I can't lie
I'm right where I want to be
Faith is what got me here
When I had nothing else
It kept me sane
It kept me humble
