Devil’s work God engineering by Tobi Smallz Lyrics
Intro
It's devil’s work but it's God engineering, God told me Boy never deny me , cos trouble times will come , cloudy nights will surface
Verse
Imagine being broke , thinking life is a joke / ain getting no spark light, till you lighting a smoke / Devil starring at you , while you keep tying the rope/ cos life is a road and you just riding alone / Crying with hopes, of you planning to go / to somewhere you ain't even planning to go / cooking something with no more gas in the stove / what’s left is a food for thought, the pastors serving us hope/
Is either you Go to church or you go to hell , / popo still on my ass, thinking ima go to jail , / Devil hoping if I got a pair of sole to sell /, sick of been sick and tired , i'm suppose to be well /
I'm close to a well , still I'm dying of thirst / life is a bed of roses , still I'm lying on grass / life test is fucked up , I'm just trying to pass / spent my life crying , hoping I be laughing at last /
But no , no no no no no / why do the good people have to go go go / more reason why I be riding on the road so low / just me , till I pull up in my ghost alone/
Talk is cheap , am a shepherd who ain't close to cattles / talk is ship still ima need a boat to paddle / A lot of folks to battle , a lot of home to value / , life a bitch , she switched from ho's to model /
If I’m dead , please Give me back myself oh lord / lot of call to glory , I switch my cell phone off / on the road to riches , I never felt hold up / cut me off any bitch , ain’t tryna impress no one /
Trying to impress you and my family / cos any other thing is just vanity / insanity, that's humanity / what if I’m tryna be who I don't wanna be /
I never wanted to sing but you gave me a mic / never wanted to live still you gave me a life / thought life don't cost a thing still you gave me a price / told me death was more costlier , so I'm staying alive /
Every night I’m suicidal , but then I wake up again / I count all my losses , and Then i weigh up the gain / was feeling enslaved till I break up the chain / I took my face off the pain , then I wait on the rain /
Made few mistakes , but I know time will heal / that old self , is till what I'm trying to kill / hoping my younger brother is gonna sign a deal / up in the hill , pray my crown don't fall off like jack and Jill/
Jack of all trade , guess I'm a master at all / still hoping you bring back , all the cats that had gone / bruise better than scars , reason why I plastered my sore / still praying my girl never give me a bastard as son /
Don't wanna raise a slave , hoping I'm raising a king / seeing is believing , Well I'm just taking a blink / life is a movie , spent my whole life creating a scene / this is God engineering I'm never praising a being /
Left bad company cos I had to quit devils work / An angel spoke to me in a dream , he told me level up / get your peddles up , race till you get a medal on / cos time is money , it switch sides like a pendulum/
I'm a sucker for love , still I'm a sucker for pain / my girl wanted a head , I said I could offer a brain / she came in the bus , then we hop on a train / she my ex , I hope I could never love her again /
But I rather break a leg , than break a heart / life is a game of chance , we all play the cards / toss a coin , you can take a side / mehn been dead is the only way to erase the past /
Everyday I got to war with my heart and soul /, I rise and hope , even though my nights are cold /, still living in my dreams hoping I find my home / , but reality kept saying I got a house above /
May the idols live for long , but I ain't bowing to no gods / we don't know you cos you ain't planning to know us / fuck a low budget , I ain't signing for low cost / I do it cos I'm suppose to , while y'all trying to blow up /
Devil gave you a deal , why you praising God for that / Boy I bet your soul gone , you getting rubbed off that / celebrate with drop of tears , showing us a cup of glass / I use to be jealous , but now am getting enough of facts /
My big hommie told me , there's no love on the street / just bloody wars and guns , and stay focus on your shit / family first , never let no ho come in between / came out from where they thought no one would be king /
Now we walking around with crowns and hand beads / I swear bro , I see them frown and feel their heart beat / they wished death on us , never knew we had found peace / one more thing , I hope I buy my mama a nice crib /
Shout out to my supporters and anyone that ever bought me / shout out to those that left , and those that never forgot me / shout out to my ex's , I mean the ones that never loved me / shout out to those who wished they gave me a kiss but never hugged me /
I'm grateful!
