Letra de Of Blue - JID

(Feat. Mereba)

We watched it all go to ashes

I'd prayed for days like a last stretch

Can't we go back to the magic? (Oh-oh)

The berries turn and they twist

Don't tell me that was the last kiss

Well, if it was, it was classic

That brings me peace of mind

Believe in miracles

There's a reason for

How the scene unfolds

Don't stop wishin'

Believe in miracles

Every season goes

We can start again

Uh, look, uh

We gotta find the place

Shit, maybe it's near the stars (Uh)

Where we can feel safe

Maybe only way to make it to the light is through the dark

Uh, but are you following the flames?

Hmm, like a tail chasing a dog

A lot shit been rough

Harder than tough, but it's nothin', just place your faith within God, yeah

Uh, uh

Heaven was Hell and vice-a versa, a verse of vices

Writin' in cursive, the grind of a author, definin' purpose

Talkin' to himself, walkin' in circles

In a secluded cabin somewhere cold, no phone service

So un-sober, smokin' somethin' he purchased from a grower that he knows

And like sand to the beach, he brought some blow to the snow

Kind of right on the nose

Tryna find the light for years, he feels tired and it shows

Rivalin' his peers, overthinkin', playin' right into the spirits

Extinguish all the fire, disappeared

But he don't see nothin' admired in the mirror

He's silently insecure, sniffin' white lines, pure

Writin' a line, sniff a white line, pure

Writin' a line, sniff a white line, pure

And it's like a cyclist's fear

You read the Bible? Much is given, much required to steer

Battlin' life, he lost his before he conquered his fear

What if Heaven was Hell and vice-a versa? A verse of vices

Very immersive, the verbiage a bit divisive

Over-determined, overtime, workin' in silence

Searchin' for purpose 'til you feel the perfect alignment

Clowns in a circus, circle around, you been in bondage

Breakin' in burglars, stealin' swag, she steady climbin'

Speakin' encouragement to the family it's by design

And she wearin' designer, learn to see life on the other side

Fuck if Heaven was Hell

Never rebel from the side of God, you been lead to prevail

Followin' idols that's falsified is the deadliest trail

She kept her mind and eyes on the prize for the better of self

Instead of regrettin' whatever's dealt, what an elegant tale

Simplest life, husband and wife with the pride on the shelf

Is somethin' I like and I think it's time to retire my belt

Tryna write a happy-ending story while I'm seein' somethin' more than Heaven, Hell, or purgatory, listen

Uh, we gotta find the place

Shit, maybe it's near the stars (Uh)

Where we can feel safe

Maybe only way to make it to the light is through the dark

Uh, but are you following the flames?

Hmm, like a tail chasing a dog

A lot shit been rough

Harder than tough, but it's nothin', just place your faith within God, yeah, uh

It's a place not made with hands (Alright)

It's a place that said, that if you believe, it has your name on it

I don't know about you, but I'm looking forward to seeing this place

I'm looking forward to that safe house

I can't wait to get there, can't you?

I can't wait to be in that place

Uh, look

All I wanted was some money since a snotty nose

All the niggas that I know with dough left the hood and didn't tell us adiós

I was takin' notes

Even seen the preacher on the TV tell me send us nineteen ninenty-ninety-nine and he can save our soul

Say it ain't so, niggas done sold us down the road

But I know God give the heaviest load to the strongest soldiers

And if I know this, I might as well assume the role

And try and lead us to the land of milk and honey, word to Moses

I got mixed emotions, cross-faded, hit the dope and mix the potions

Daily devotions on my nightstand by the different strands of Violas

Violets, blue blood droppin', it's red as the roses

Niggas shootin', not a movie, but you dead in the focus

Step in the light 'cause in the night, it gets dark as the ocean

Beau in LeBlanc, hit the blunt as we parked in the cul-de'

Sack in his pockets, said that one day, "We takin' this over"

Nodded my head, spinned the block and looked over my shoulder

And you was there for me, but carefully placed, truth was darin' me, starin' death in the face

Look in the way when I was stuck in the space, stumblin', bend, but nothin' would break

Titanium, tough as they make (Talk shit)

In the lion's den, I resembled David, I repent the sin

I return to sender every shot, nigga, 'cause many men

Wish death 'pon Black breath

Dell Curry, I can raise a 30, but it's not Steph

You ain't really got the chops, crank it up a notch, cookin' with the top chef

I gotta watch myself, a beautiful life, a ugly cycle, I gotta stop myself

I'm bleedin', takin' a beatin', we come from the Bible Belt

Indeed, I never could leave it, I'm seein' nobody to help

Strategic that you the reasonin', achieved, they didn't believe in him

Succeed, I swim in the deep again, I'm sinkin', when can I breathe again?

The fatigue is settin' in, I can speak in telekinesis

Tellin' God what I need, I fall on my knees, then stand on my feet

I'm back on the road, the sinner repent and repeat, the sinner repent and repeat

The sinner repent

I gotta see it through until it's finished, we all got a sentence we up against

Blank period, where the promethazines? I been searchin' for somethin' with substance

I'm clearly comin' up with nothing

But fuck it, I'll go where the love is, I think that's the place

I might've found it, yeah

This guy came, thinks he a prophet

And he says, picked us out of the whole church

"That couple right there"

Called us up to the front of the church

I was, I was still high, bein' out all night (Yeah)

And he says, "God say you all ain't gon' have to worry 'bout nothin'

What you need to remember is not you that got us this good

It was the Lord, God Almighty"

I'll never forget that
