peace

Machine Gun Kelly (mgk)

Don t y all get sick of this regular shit?
Just bought me a new outfit to get a little spit on my dick
I was an outcast till I had no money for rent
So I started counting my singles like arithmetics
Then I, stepped up my game like I put my foot on the light
Of the way I wanna get at
told everybody that I had no limit
Fuck privileges we coming out the poorest city
Public subsidized housing
smoke a little weed when they get down some
Money came up short, the crew bouncin
Straight showers in the rough to buy a few mountains
And we, didn t even get over the hill
Didn t even make it through the field
Fuck what anybody throwing at me
I ain t settling for another
And I ain t stopping
until I get a meal or until I get a deal
Get it in the streets
they don t need to sweat I got beretta for the heat
Because in the Land there s a dead man
The day I become passive, they all passing me
Actually, naw factually you don t talk, you speak after me
Copied everything I did, let s see if I quit this shit
How are ya ll [?]

Can I get a little peace?
Peace, peace (that s all I ask)
Can I get a little peace?
Can I get a little
Can I get a little peace?

I m so close to severing ties with these posers
But these posers hold the power
to cut off the path to my career like Moses
Choking cause I m so sick of being overlooked
like telescopes
When I never asked for a hand-out
but goddamn can I get a rope or something?
To pull me in from the open, ocean that I ve been floating
Those sharks circling my boat
I damn near drowned and seize up, hoping
What s with these [?] tryna be both or they just croaking
Wanna be grown, I ain t ever wanna be MGK always coastin
Flows always been the coldest
wordplay always been the dopest
My bites always been cobras
me and hip-hop go back like togas
Tell my kids I was a motherfuckin
soldier from the time that I born
Up until the time that I done grown up
keep my boy from off the corner
I don t wanna have a suit
and tie for funerals like I m joned up
Because peace these days doesn t come
in nothing but the forms of bullets and comas
And how am I supposed to live life when I m so broke but
Used to the lavish life, I pray these days are almost over
Focusing on the road to, success and I m so close but
Struggle blocking my progress
give me strength for Lo, Jehovah
This night is almost over, its darkest before its dawner
So please heavenly father, can I get a little peace?
Heavenly father please, can I get a little peace?
Peace, peace
To my people in the world, peace
