Drake - Cornerstone lyrics

[Verse 1] I see ya watchin' Examinin' my manoeuvres Grab a bottle and knowing the calculated conclusion Of what I'm sippin' And what I'm thinking Praying, Lord don't let 'em catch me slipping Popped the cap back and relax Yeah, the sin is relapsed Selfishness disguised as helplessness, inhibitions left with my sleeving Breathe that Take a picture, perfect, freeze that Shameful reminisces, disgusting recaps Thinking that This feeling, can't be me No never, I've been set free The liquor that I'm drinking, it controlling me Only puts a hole in me That can never be filled So I just sip another bottle 'til my cup overflows into a heart that's hollow Role models, follow the leader To the same cornerstone where he told me to meet him I was drinking, smelling so weedy Crazy, why I want to be him Because this man he had it all together Women, money, surrounded with pleasure I see him watching Examinin' my manoeuvres Grab a bottle and knowing the calculated conclusion [Pre-Hook] The cornerstone (x2) [Hook] Meet me at the spot right now It's going down We about to get blown out Let's role on down [Verse 2] I see them watchin' Examinin' what I'm doing Making a**essment And a**ume I'm just foolish And even though I am, I need not for them to prove it I can finally remove them from the life I'm pursuing Weed and music, love it too much to lose it Covered the stuff they doin' Vanity all consuming And once the life worth livin' for gets ruined This lifestyle is not real life only an illusion Evil is not alarming when it's knocking at your back porch And then you're swept away by a trap door You lose footing, lose sight Lose the fight to your own thoughts Knowing the trap was set by your own heart Getting Goosebumps and lumps in the back of my throat Thinking about it before I dive back in the door It's backwards I know Trying to find God in the darkness is like walking backwards I know Or maybe not I can see when I write this In the pitch black, candle light shines the brightest And when the candle dances We all get excited and drawn in What will light allow us to decipher Searching for knowledge we feed the flame it goes bigger, brighter Stronger 'til the room becomes whiter Warmer, invited, we're stepping unknowingly become consumed with the love of Christ, uncontrollably [Pre-Hook] [Hook 2] Meet me at the throne right now I'm kneeling down Let His love pour out This final ground At the cornerstone [Pre-Hook] + [Hook 2] [Outro] Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah At the cornerstone
