about
Self reflecting is how I would describe this track. You know, a then and now type of reflection. Mankind goes through all types of struggles in life and sometimes those struggles can become the only thing visible if we let them. While recounting some of my many battles throughout life up to now, I make sure to allure to the things that I didn’t adhere to or give heed to. Those things that were showed to me, told to me and taught to me, that would have without a doubt became the end of me. Wrongs I’ve committed keeps me indebted to My Creator. Those times I could’ve went even further and didn’t was because of Mr. Yahuah’s favor in not allowing me that mind. I felt it was only fitting to name the song as named because it’s what has to happen for any of us to be saved and we’ll all be speaking the same thing in saying “I Forsook The Counsel Of The Rasha” Shalum.
lyrics
I had been wayfaring and traveling
Shot out there like a javelin burden with a
baggage of a million of my bad agains
Dragged a lot of weight
Should’ve been left in my past tense
Stupid me ain’t have sense to have sense
Look I won’t bore ya reminiscing
But it’s fortunate to listen
This here could have the answer
You been missing
That’s if you tired of livin
Notoriously wicked
Get ya charges dismissed
Via the Ram caught in the thicked
Listen..
Hook
Had I gave heed to certain thangs
that were told to me I wouldn’t be here in
THE WAY OF YAH where I’m suppose to be
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I took hold of what’s Tsdyq
Had I gave heed to certain thangs
that was showed to me I wouldn’t be here in
THE WAY OF YAH where I’m suppose to be
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I took hold of what’s Tsdyq
Verse2
In many troubles I would find me
time and time again boy look here
Unruly besides myself cuz
Daddy drunk he outta there
hard headed adolescent won’t listen so
momma let the cops take me from round em bruh
cuz they don’t want all that drama there
I lived it how I don’t care
impoverished no kinda wealth
Sought drugs to please myself
Misguided just needed help
I proclaimed I declared
Imma change I would swear
Next time ya seen me back out there
Can’t do nothin with myself
Hook
Had I gave heed to certain thangs
that were told to me I wouldn’t be here in
THE WAY OF YAH where I’m suppose to be
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I took hold of what’s Tsdyq
Had I gave heed to certain thangs
that was showed to me I wouldn’t be here in
THE WAY OF YAH where I’m suppose to be
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I took hold of what’s Tsdyq
Verse
It’s not a boast of being called
cuz I know few will be chosen
so my focus is on
What Mr. Yahuah had spoken
When I put off basar
Yashua what I seek to be clothed in
Yahusha mut (moot)
for me and for that I’m beholden
Yahudy Gang ryda here
Bump this for ya mama nem
Mashaly gone tell ya folks
What time it is
I bet one say the vibe is real
And finally look inside a mirror
Crucial
Truth brutal like a lion kill
Hook
Had I gave heed to certain thangs
that were told to me I wouldn’t be here in
THE WAY OF YAH where I’m suppose to be
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I took hold of what’s Tsdyq
Had I gave heed to certain thangs
that was showed to me I wouldn’t be here in
THE WAY OF YAH where I’m suppose to be
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I forsook the counsel of the Rasha
I took hold of what’s Tsdyq
