Need Saving

From the album System Failure by Scottychams

Intro

I’ve woken up

I’ve realized

Al that shit was a lie

Chorus

We all need saving

Sometimes

We all need saving

Sometimes

Sometimes

Verse 1

Yeah

You heard about hell

Created it and made it for real

And then you made it for sale

When you only needed enough to pay the bills

And though you fail to cover up

I feel like I'm at the summit of my time

I’m pushing away your lies

Exposing truth while I’m live

Online

And yeah, I've seen I believe it

Y’all best go find the meaning

Cause otherwise I'm leaving

They’ve been seizing

I’ve been breathing smoke in all season

And I’m heaving trying to fight off all my demons

They created like who you playing

Now who you paying

What you saying

I’m just laying

Out the facts

I got the match

I lit the fuse

I’m blowing up

I know it’s soon

So when I’m finally coming to

I’ma come

Embrace the nation

With many revelations

And my patience

Has elevated

While y’all fools be hella hating

Every single day

I’m craving the truth

And I may still be a youth

But dude

You’re not allowed to fuck around

It’s getting funny now

I’m surprised the sound ain’t censored

I’ve been gone

All up in the song

Busy getting mentored

Lectured by my soul

I’m trying to find my way back

To ask various questions

I’m questioning the government for relevant

Hell sent deals spent

For lives and lost time

But ain’t nobody realize

We all living this lie

We’ll die still in disguise

Less we rise up

It shouldn’t surprise ya

They all seeded in this evil

They think we not equal

These roots are digging deep

But above we don’t see

The heresy

Hypocrisy

Hysterically

I’m staring at these people

They don’t care and then

We washed away

In this day to day

Nine to five bullshit

Your life was written

And now you’re keeping

So close to the script

Y’all faded through time

Like some words on the page

Erased and get replaced

We the chattel of the system

What we didn’t realize was

It ain’t really hard to switch em’

Got to pitch em’

A new idea

A new philosophy

Cause this self-proclaimed prophecy

Is like Pac’s vision, I’m honestly

On this shit platonically

My life’s inside these lines

So ask me what I’m doing

In all of my spare time

But I aint got none

These new tracks, I got some

I made some and bought some

Mean all I got is my voice and mind

And I’ve been going all out

In attempt to change the tides

Like every night

Now I know

Chorus

We all need saving

Sometimes

We all need saving

Sometimes

Sometimes

Chorus

We all need saving

Sometimes

We all need saving

Sometimes

Sometimes

Verse 2

All that shit was lie

So I’m saying goodbye

To all these myths

And all these fantasies

And now I plan to be

The man in me

Understand I can’t

Live so happily ignorant

Lighting up these cigarettes

To kill the time

Off my life

And the stress on my shoulders

I’m so young now

So I hope that when I’m older

I’ll be saved and save many

Got plenty of time

And I can do it with these rhymes

Of lines that we all waiting into die

For our country

Who would lock you up if you ain’t paying some

Like now who you paying huh?

These new age mobsters

And they on to us

We need to change together

The system failed

Whether or not you believe it

Best to find the meaning

We living it you can see it

But we indoctrinated

They shot Pac

For revelating

Trying to start elevating

Your minds and realize

We the drones of any nation

And though we all need saving

I can finally rest in peace

Knowing this album finally made it

To you

Cause to me

This is more than new tunes

And though it won’t make the news

Like that Dalfest shit

I went and lit up with the crew

But if anything, I hope that

This message just gets through

And maybe it’s got you thinking

We all need saving too

Maybe it’s got you thinking that

We all need saving too

Chorus

We all need saving

Sometimes

Sometimes

We all need saving

Sometimes

Sometimes

Outro

I’ve woken up

I realize

All that shit was a lie
