Lost My Way

INTRO
I have lost my way
I’ve lost my way

VERSE 1 - FAB EL
Inspired by the ancient systems
Who had a way with wisdom
Who paved the way for Christians and Islam
The more I dive into the sacred systems
I feel my ancestors Grace within them
I’m seeing where we went wrong
Pages turning reading King James is the latest version
Ephesians 6 verse five what an amazing burden
Slaves obey your earthly masters or face to furnace
Basically saying praise his white face,
And stay a servant, nigga
I found my freedom and it came from learning
I’m rich in spirit that shit came from earning
I left religion in the ashes that shit came from burning
I can’t be listening to the pastors that shit ain’t concerning
The God in me pardon me another verse you all should read
Because you pick and choose the shit you want to see like philosophy
Psalms 82 Verse Six is commonly overlooked
Open your book tell me what you see
Here God’s not property, nigga

CHORUS - RIWO
Come find me
Find me
I have lost my way
I’ve lost my way
Come find me
Find me
I have lost my way
I’ve lost my way

VERSE 2 - SINZERE
Channeling my inner Queen Amina (Hausa)
Right hemispheric thinking dwell beyond the ether
White supremacist eager to leave her leaking liquid
Liquor drugs prostitute our spirit trying reach a
Heaven is within don’t know your kin
Allah can’t reach yah
Gamble with your life like Caesar over see yah
More makeda Queen of Sheba
Reigning hellfire over serpents who
slither the surface
These white walls are closing in
Incarcerate the minds of many men
Mind militant like 50 cent
We know many men wish death upon the Gods from the land of Canaan
Power in your melanin I revel in the sentiment
We heaven sent living breathing
Do not play with Gods children
The wrath and the aftermath
Obliteration to your crooked past
Yoked us up and dragged us through that deadly passage
Trauma in my DNA
Know they prayed it end my days
But deity is in my genes
Find me

CHORUS - RIWO
Come find me
Find me
I have lost my way
I’ve lost my way
Come find me
Find me
I have lost my way
I’ve lost my way

VERSE 3 - ARLO MAVERICK
Granny was so wise
She was a faithful Christian (BLESS, BLESS)
At night she’d close her eyes
And pray for all her children (BLESS)
Spoke of borrowed time
A grace that God has given (BLESS, BLESS)
Never questioned why
Somehow I always listened (BLESS)
Jesus was her faith,
Not in man made buildings
She would sacrifice
To one day see the kingdom
That is how I know she lived
Til her dying day
She would quote me readings
Although she passed away
I still maintain her teachings
Psalms of David
To acts of the apostles
Genesis to Revelations
She lived by this gospel
Am I failing
Not matching what she modeled
Have I become complacent
A sinner with his bible
It’s complicated
To say the least
This should be my sanctuary
I find no peace
Riddled with inconsistencies
We dare not speak
Lord grant me serenity please
That I may reach

CHORUS - RIWO
Come find me
Find me
I have lost my way
I’ve lost my way
Come find me
Find me
I have lost my way
I’ve lost my way
Come find me
I’ve lost my way
Find me
I’ve lost my way
Come find me
I’ve lost my way
Find me
I’ve lost my way
