Baltimore City Product
You already know how I'm rocking
Ya Dig
Skieeeeee
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I'm moving, stacking, and flipping for my fam, my village
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I was born in the trenches, but thanking the Lord that I'm different
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
When I'm rapping, it's facts, and you might want to pay real attention
I'm gifted and lifted, and thanking the father cuz I know he mine
I know it's my faith that keep hope alive
I don't honor money, see Proverbs 3:9
Praising the Lord cuz I'm living divine
Got rid of the women, but never drop dimes
Dealing with cops, only time I would lie
Grab the Visine, time to clear up these eyes
From Baltimore city, we trained to survive
Copped me a Glizzy but no I'm not shy
God blessed me with a gift, ain't no surprise
I know it is real, through conviction I cried
You know it's hard to bring tears to these eyes
Last time I balled, was when Justine had died
Crying to God, I'm just asking him why
"She is with me ", was the only reply
Took that on the chin, it just lifted our tribe
Only the scary would go run and hide
Time to fight demons, You know Ima ride
Earth, Devil's play-ground, then I'm gonna slide
Protected by Jesus, in case we collide
Stay with that weapon, it's right on my side
Talking that sword, so hold back on your pride
Don't understand me, see Proverbs 3:5
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I'm moving, stacking, and flipping for my fam, my village
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
Been stacking it up for the children with different envisions
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I was born in the trenches, but thanking the Lord that I'm different
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
When I'm rapping, it's facts, and you might want to pay real attention
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I'm moving, stacking, and flipping for my fam, my village
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
Been stacking it up for the children with different envisions
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I was born in the trenches, but thanking the Lord that I'm different
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
When I'm rapping, it's facts, and you might want to pay real attention
Corner-back when I was a panther
Up in high school I really was a jammer
Could've bought a manor off the arm and hammer
But they took my uncle through him in the slammer
Thank God I'm gifted and lifted
Went to college had to pay tuition
Went to school, I ain't forget to mention
Took an audible route, had different vision
Had to take some time off of them missions
Back then, it was Barbara's kitchen
Trying to cook it, but I messed up, had to get rid of all the dishes
I pray to God, ask for forgiveness. For being blind and so ignorant
Look King if the shoe don't fit, please stop trying to get in it
It's more lifestyles out here than being stuck, dying in the trenches
Get your education, then get a job, Telling you it's benefiting
If you don't want to work for nobody, you can do it, just start a Business
Look at me, yea I got 3, and they all bringing in some real digits
I’m so in love with Jesus Christ, they be hating on me, say I’m too Christian
But Without him, to tell the truth, my Future would’ve been so wicked
My message to you, is to give it up,
If the devil see weakness, he pick on us
No Milwaukee, I’m stashing and tithing bucks
Im hustler, you will see me in pick-up trucks (Skrrrrr!)
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I'm moving, stacking, and flipping for my fam, my village
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
Been stacking it up for the children with different envisions
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I was born in the trenches, but thanking the Lord that I'm different
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
When I'm rapping, it's facts, and you might want to pay real attention
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I'm moving, stacking, and flipping for my fam, my village
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
Been stacking it up for the children with different envisions
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I was born in the trenches, but thanking the Lord that I'm different
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
When I'm rapping, it's facts, and you might want to pay real attention
You let that Devil manifest ya lip
It's Baghdad when we moving clips
You try step bout that thirsty chick
It's Bangkok if the first one glitch
King Skie been about the ish
I never budge, I don’t gotta flinch
Where it start is where it finish
If you sin, ask for forgiveness
I may slip and cuss in a sentence
Trust, I make sure I’m repenting
Repping God for the very ending
I live about it, I am not pretending
Godly team and we all winning
Sprinkle Godly season over chickens
Blessings’ cup, over here sipping
Holy Spirit got me reinvented
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I'm moving, stacking, and flipping for my fam, my village
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
Been stacking it up for the children with different envisions
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I was born in the trenches, but thanking the Lord that I'm different
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
When I'm rapping, it's facts, and you might want to pay real attention
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I'm moving, stacking, and flipping for my fam, my village
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
Been stacking it up for the children with different envisions
I'm gifted and Lifted (Gifted!)
I was born in the trenches, but thanking the Lord that I'm different
I'm gifted and Lifted (Lifted!)
When I'm rapping, it's facts, and you might want to pay real attention
I'm gifted and lifted
