Phora - Mercy lyrics

[Verse 1: Phora Yeah, they gonna see the outcome Count my blessings every time I have one It never comes easy when you lazy on the subject Wait a sec, why for? Better yet, ready for the mic check f** em, never break a sweat Pay my gas, pay my dues No matter what, I'm stayin true Never far from nonsense cause momma didn't raise a fool Gotta keep it movin, I ain't with that bullsh** Don't talk about it, I do it Take action and seek improvement So follow my footsteps to the state of relevance, only place that's making sense, speaking from experience Point at blank paper, yeah I'm tired of it all Tryin to paint a picture when you don't know how to draw Yo, I do this for my family, I do this for my folks I do this for the cats who used to take me as a joke, the ones that doubted me and said that I'd never amount to nothing And even though they hate, I'm still brought up in their discussions All the sudden get the time of day, last time I felt the hate Appreciate, you never did, so I stay devilish Insecure, you never know for sure With this sh** I endure, always leavin me, mature Yo, nothin but love in my heart for the cats who feel my struggle Cause sending d** and doin deals don't really mean you hustle Nah, cause it ain't hard to sell dope to a fiend That ain't respect, you should try reaching your goals and your dreams Cause I'm thicked skin, shoot opinions down, like you gotta be Not losin sleep over lowlife f**ery Social suicide with these Geminis, see you on the rise and do nothin but despise And you gotta watch for them snakes kid Trust isn't common round as every other hate is And they quick to end your life over some lunch money And everyone's hungry, we all gotta eat but ain't enough food for all of our tummies so And it can't stop, and it won't stop, and it don't stop til we make your body rock Here we get down, never listen to what the haters say, and when you see us comin better make some way And it won't stop, and it don't stop til we make your body rock Here we get down, never listen to what the haters say, and when you see us comin better make some way And your bad habits, it goes without saying You don't understand, then you don't know what you missin s**ed in like a gold mind, belief is hard to find Read between the lines, so get left behind Yo, after all's said and done, I stay true to my people Never follow they rules cause these fools can deceive you Look, I'll never ride with the n***as I didn't walk with I'll never eat with the people I didn't starve with On the high pedestal, but you so miniscule Tryin to be the best but you lackin the pole Yeah, back at square run when I hit the home run Left you in the dirt, cause that's what you deserve And homie, I ain't with the bs, I just wanna live drama free But every now and then I hear the devil calling me, temptin the innocent They say we all human, but karma is a b**h and she don't like hearing excuses, n***a And it can't stop, and it won't stop, and it don't stop til we make your body rock Here we get down, never listen to what the haters say, and when you see us comin better make some way And it won't stop, and it don't stop til we make your body rock Here we get down, never listen to what the haters say, and when you see us comin better make some way
