Lyrics
As I wait for atonement
Expressing a desire for redemption or forgiveness.
Trapped in the heat of the moment
Feeling stuck or confined in a critical moment.
Feelin' like I can't control it
Sensing a lack of control in the current situation.
As I wait for atonement
Reiteration of the yearning for atonement.
Trapped in the heat of the moment
Reemphasizing being trapped in a critical moment.
Uh, huh, feelin' the steam from the cauldron
Feeling the intensity of the situation, like steam from a cauldron.
With tension runnin' deep as the ocean
Deep tension likened to the vastness of the ocean.
Many are called but so few are chosen
Reflection on the scarcity of those chosen in comparison to the many called.
As I go through the motions
Navigating through actions or routines.
Of medication uppin' my dosage
Reference to taking medication, possibly to cope.
Bangin' Earth, Wind and Fire 'Devotion' as I admire the focus
Listening to Earth, Wind and Fire's "Devotion" while admiring focus.
Takin' the city with a grain of salt
Approaching the city cautiously, aware of its challenges.
Where they tastin' foul, chase it down, with the latest malt
Dealing with unpleasant experiences and washing them down with a drink.
Liquor roll and hit it, knife did it
Engaging in risky behavior, metaphorically rolling dice.
Hope you got some smarts wit'chu
Advising to be smart in difficult situations.
Hope you got some heart
Emphasizing the need for courage or resilience.
It ain't no stoppin' when it start, nigga
Highlighting the unstoppable nature of certain actions.
Feel somethin' bigger got a hold on me
Sensing a powerful force influencing the speaker.
And I ain't trippin' not a Bobby Brown, lippin' with my nose runnin'
Not overly concerned, avoiding unnecessary drama.
Basically I had two options I just chose one
Faced with decisions, chose a path and left discreetly.
And then got ghost like my picture was on a most wanted
Departed quietly, likened to a wanted criminal.
Coast to coast, from L.A. to Chicago
Traveling extensively, facing challenges across the country.
Now I'm faced, with the weight of survival
Weighed down by the pressure of survival.
Plus the taste from the way I been lied to
Tasting the bitterness of being deceived.
While the preacher man spittin' his gospel, I can win if I try to
Listening to a preacher's message while contemplating winning against odds.
As I wait for atonement
Repetition of the yearning for atonement.
Trapped in the heat of the moment
Reiteration of feeling trapped in a critical moment.
Feelin' like I can't control it
Reiterating a sense of lack of control in the current situation.
As I wait for atonement
Repetition of the yearning for atonement.
Trapped in the heat of the moment
Reiteration of feeling trapped in a critical moment.
