Not Me (feat. Iron Will, Pythagoras the Praying Mantis & Scripture reading by DJ Paine) Video (MV)

For I am crucified with Christ
Nevertheless I live
Yet, not I
But Christ
Liveth in me

#ChristJesus
Yo, I was
Self-indulgent
With a charm
That would
Bring 'em in
I never saw it
For the harm
I would
Bring to them
Stringing them along
Left their hearts in
Vacant homes
Just because I
Wasn't safe alone
That was not Ryland
Hella mean to people
(Mean)
I never seen it
As I'm breeding evil
I just believed I should
Demean the feeble
My tongue was
Keener than a
Sea of needles
(Sharp)
My demeanor
It was bleak and fecal
That was not Ryland
I fell in lust
At an early age
Because I was touched
In my early days
And, stuck in
My early grave
My pervy ways
They submerged my days
I met my wife
And, almost swerved her away
That was not Ryland
Yo, that was not me
Major cocky
Full of pride
Yo, I was stockpiling
I should've died
From the crimes
That I got life in
And, I still
Kept the shots firing
That was not Ryland
Fugaze
I shoulda choked him
With a shoelace and
Screwfaced him
Harder than Conway
When he is
Not smiling
(Hard)
But a new grace
Is on me
Glory to God
My story is not
To brag about
The spot I'm in
Nah
I'm tryna show you
Who I was before
He entered the kitchen
Pulled my head
Up out that
Oven door
Headed to L
But, for His grace
Glory Hallelujah
Pleased to meet you
My name is Ryland Junior
His name is
#ChristJesus
Ahh

Yo
Let me talk
Yeah
Yeah
I was a master villain
Streets, I wasn't in for paper
Worst type
Rehearsed life
To outright manipulate ya
My intellect was 3-D
Project how you perceive me
Straight imposter
Like rasta mixed in fettuccine
And, yeah
My path was greasy
Lost my dad
Spazzed immediately
Big brother overalls
Pipe drawn
Ask Luigi
Chase down peaches easy
Pythons demon squeeze the
Lights off
Jesus seen it
My fall
Preconceived it
Pride was my side chick
And, lust was my
Favorite demon
Mics came around
And, I could
Drown out your
Favorite seaman
Pause
Sting ray bars
Hard like
Them stars in cement
Faded Jean Gray
Mind gone
Like the darkest phoenix
But, God
Huh
He saw that I was
So anemic
Infusing iron with The Blood
Under strong agreement
The Cross
A.I.
No Nas and Ether
Can take over
Jehovah's sneakers
I'm gone
'Cause that was not me
That was not me
That was not me

Yo
I was a
Slim baby
Skin shady
Kids hated me
Integrated ninjas
Patiently trained me
A criminal minded
Lyrical hybrid
Glitch
Blazing through a
Simulation
Stimulated
Filling the pages
With crazy imaginations
My dad was satan
Had me grabbing forbidden fruit
Adam reanimated
Salivating
This is not an exaggeration
Barricaded my heart
Anger raging
Banner waving
I was a savage pagan
Headed toward destruction
Knew about The Creator
But, still behaved disgusting
The son of a man
Who was unsteady
And reluctant
But, my mum instructed us
On how to believe in something
I can trust in
The Blood of Jesus
Covered me from a distance
When my son was born
I had to become a Christian
I just experienced
The love my mother wished us
Repented and understood
The Lord's covered in Scriptures
It's different now
'Cause that was not me
'Cause that was not me

And, the life
Which I now live in the flesh
I live by faith
In the Son of God
Who loved me
And gave himself for me
The Book of Galatians
Chapter 2
Verse 20
