Wiser (The Prophecy) Lyrics

I spent this whole time tryna find my purpose in life

I never let who did me wrong stop me from doing what's right

Try not to hold no grudges I just forgive and forget about it

I've been hurt to the point where it's no dodging your way around it

Man I'm talking bout them nights you can't sleep because of the pain

It's just storm clouds over your head no dodging the rain

People telling you to keep your head up but tell me how can I?

I appreciate all of the advice but does it get betta?

I just hope it does

Depression used to keep a nigga up

But luckily I got my brothers here to pick me up

And i know if it ever was to go down

That they gon be around

To lend a helping hand whenever a nigga fall on the ground

At least I hope so

Lately been holding on by a tight rope

I feel success around me getting close and man i know

If i keep on pushing forward the chance is that ill prevail

But i promise you I'm not afraid to fail

I feel so chosen

Get on the mic and i speak to y'all like an open book

I'm still the one that everybody overlooks

I try to reach out to a lot of people i think that i could work good with

But a lot of y'all wont work unless it's benefitting you

Don't know what happened to staying down

Randoms wanna come around

And act like they was down

But FTP we shut it down,

Burnt some bridges maybe we should sit down and find common ground

Don't compare me to who I was then to who I am now nah

Cause musically feel like I'm on a different level

I was taught to never settle and make your haters respect you

Since I came outta the womb i already knew i was special

So i know to never take my foot up off that pedal

Sometimes i need someone to ride with me

Nelly shit,

I know that some of you relate when I'm really talking my shit

I'm giving wedding day vibes you get it?

Not a miss

I found a catch with music promise i ain't drop the ball since

I'm the man in due time you'll see like Ceelo Green

Chasing dreams all i had was just a dollar and a dream

Like that Born Sinner nigga you see what a nigga mean?

Treat this music like a drug it's been turning me to a fiend

May we all get wiser with time

And if you need me girl ill be there at the drop of a dime

For them im out of reach but you know i ain't that hard to find

Larry Bird style come through in the clutch every time

Everytime for you

Holding all this weight feel like I'm underwater

Tell me what i gotta do to keep this shit in order

Used to call me childish now they miss the old SiD I grew up

Used to talk like every day now you don't pick the phone up

Yeah I said I'm holding all this weight feel like I'm underwater

Tell me what I gotta do to keep this shit in order

Used to call me childish now they miss the old SiD i grew up

Used to talk like every day now you don't pick the

Young Prophet

Misconducted grief constitutes apathy amongst other things

Feels like life's sorrows swallowed hope whole in the light when that passion grows

And in the dark where that sadness blows

Out like a light

Out like a candle

Don't dismantle

My only dream

Its too dark I need to see

Its been tough I need to bleed

Conversations between you and me

Showin me matter fact consoling me

On darker days holding me

Telling me to be wiser

The surpriser

The decider

The despiser

Of all things fake

Gimme something real and in due time you'll see me mold it

Take my soul out of this clay form as I brainstorm it

My full potential

I am wiser

Tell em God had sent you
