GOD'S WILL (feat. Vic Daggs II)

Macklemore

    Never turn my back on my birthplace
    Leave it to my city, making sure that the dirts straight
    Leave my kids just enough 'cause I'll fail them the worst way
    If I raised some rich spoiled white girls in the first place, yeah
    Leave a legacy, one worth remembering
    In my robe, looking out on Rome, on the Mezzanine, like
    Why creators are the last ones with some equity?
    Put myself in a position to pass it to my people

    And that's why I'm not settling, more capital than Beverly
    Before my grandma died, she saw me on Jeopardy
    Still think PJs are too expensive
    Still don't make music with people I ain't friends with
    Still fuck the industry, and no, I don't mess with
    People that my mama wouldn't want to have for breakfast
    That's right
    The suits, the streams, the snakes, the schemes, the steady

    Pursuit of paper over truth and dreams
    Loyal to my soil, never change the oil
    Kept the motor running, kept my foot up on the gas
    And push to start the button
    Everything I thought I always wanted, everything it wasn't
    Never know that God is everything until you lose sight of Him, yeah
    Never know that God is everything until you lose sight of Him

    Said it's written on my face, I can't play it off
    I got so much on my plate, I can't shake it off
    But I'm built for this, I'm built for this
    I been staying in my lane, keep my head down
    I was losing my faith, but I'm blessed now
    God told me: You built for this
    I know I'm built for this

    You weren't supposed to die here
    You were supposed to fly here
    Look what you built off your imagination
    Could've never imagined the places you would've been taken because your ideas
    This is in your veins, like where the IV is
    My mama's Dodge minivan became my own at 16
    Before sixteen ever got you a phone
    Maybe when I was 13, 12, 11, who knows

    But I was in the back of that motherfucker writing my poems
    On shrooms with the busted boombox
    Thinking that this special brew and beater, I was Tupac, nah
    If I could go back and give that motherfucker advice
    I'd say it was already written, boy
    Keep living your life
    Put everything you got into your truth
    That instrument you carry around, that is a tool

    The most precious one you'll ever have
    There's no shortcuts in the craft
    Because the craft is actually just a path to discover you
    It can get you pussy, respect, money, fame and
    They love to call it the game, but please do not get it confused
    'Cause that's just the temptation that God is going to put in front of your face
    To see how bad you really want the jewel
    And you don't run this shit, these are God's words

    And when you catch the Holy Spirit, thank God first
    Kill the ego, kill the need to keep on pleasing people
    Self-centeredness and self-will isn't how God works
    We only here for a blink and it's gone
    So, what you going to do with the ink you use in your songs?
    Regardless of your deal, or the label that you're on
    When you die, the Universe already owns them all

    That's God's will
    It's all God's will
