Beauty 4 Ashes Lyrics

Krys Barry in the building Real talk beats on the track

This one to me is, it's kinda personal vibe with me

I used to stand at the corner store Pan handle just to fill a vice

Or maybe something I can eat at night Vacant room, heart cold as ice

Working But shit ain't enough living check to check

Now I got my son looking at me What happened to Daddy?

My soul feeling complexed Can't explain it

Peep the picture that I'm painting Barry going through some changes

Got me looking for my Angel See reality is angled at anger

Who blaming who? Who doing what for the money?

Ain't it all Sin? Tell you the truth

Not throwing stones Barry was following Them

Damn Carry no shame

I keep it real on the record I said I did it

Believe it My nigga right hand

And I'm still on the record Ladies love me like I'm Cool J

Try and treat me like a Cool Jay Find out no fool play

Heart broke need a new bae

Feeling like it's been raining all my life shit

Then one day I got tired of feeling like this

Gave all my problems to Jesus I let him handle my demons

I'm in a whole nother season And he gave me Beauty for Ashes

Feeling like it's been raining all my life shit

Then one day I got tired of feeling like this

Gave all my problems to Jesus I let him handle my demons

I'm in a whole nother season And he gave me Beauty for Ashes

Troubled youth from the trenches Momma put food on the table

Kept a nigga in designer But whip a nigga with a cable

Fuck a dream, fuck a label She wasn't with it, game over

Fast forward about 20 years Now she acting like Folgers

Best part of waking up Look at her son and he blowing up?

Look at my son and he growing up? No weapon prospered that come for US

Get it? Pain make a nigga wiser Stick to the path and you meet Goliath

In other words your destiny is on the other side of

These sleeping Giants kill em Let me out the pen, in 2017

And I was on the run by 2019 Fucking with a girl I really didn't need

That was another story Another tried to have me on Maury

Glory to God I'm anointed and doing better Even things I don't understand

God wrote me this love letter

Feeling like it's been raining all my life shit

Then one day I got tired of feeling like this

Gave all my problems to Jesus I let him handle my demons

I'm in a whole nother season And he gave me Beauty for Ashes

Feeling like it's been raining all my life shit

Then one day I got tired of feeling like this

Gave all my problems to Jesus I let him handle my demons

I'm in a whole nother season And he gave me Beauty for Ashes

Yeah, the Lord will fulfill his purpose for me

Your steadfast love, oh Lord, endureth forever

Do not forsake the work of your hands
