War

Yeah
Ayy, 2000, E-S-T
That's that O-C-O-E-E (war)
(Yeah)

It's a war in the city, it's a war outside (war)
Lucy spread lies, it's a war in the mind (mind)
Let your Kingdom Come, let it fall right now (now)
Let your Kingdom Come, let it fall right now (now)

In the same world, we don't fight the same way (oh)
I don't need the Glock, nah, I don't need the K (nah)
But I got a weapon that'll make you say, "Grace"
Power of the Lord, make 'em do the Olay ('lay)

Lucy mad that we went the right way
Went and got the logos, hit the whole place
Tried to move the goalpost, we kickin' out hate
Kickin' out pride, we kickin' out the pain like Messi
He can't check me (oh)
Lucy try to be friendly, we not besties
He tried to keep me on ice, that's too sketchy
'Til I tapped in with Christ, now I'm Wayne Gretzky

Can't believe I thought so many times I was done (uh)
But you the type to leave the 99 for The One (for The One)
Who knew all I needed was a sign from the Son?
Who knew all I needed was a sign, gotta tell 'em

It's a war in the city, it's a war outside (it's a war)
Lucy spread lies, it's a war in the mind (it's a war)
Let your Kingdom Come, let it fall right now
Let your Kingdom Come, let it fall right now

It's a war in the city, it's a war outside
Lucy spread lies, it's a war in the mind
Let your Kingdom Come, let it fall right now
Let your Kingdom Come, let it fall right now

It's a war, yeah (it's a war outside)
It's a war, yeah (it's a war outside)
It's a war, yeah (it's a war outside)
It's a war, yeah

Guess what, I had to tell my sister and my brother
"Devil, he be creepin' undercover"
He just want them to go fight each other
Instead, I'm fighting him
I can't let the old me win (nah)
Lucy want me fallin' in his sin (uh)
So I'm in a gym (uh), took away the heart like Tim (Tim)
Put my heart away, not again (yeah)

Watch me cut the habits that I had for 20 years off
Got a God to gaze, watchin' what I'm lettin' in
Watchin' what I listen to, watchin' what I see (uh)
I don't wanna hear, dawg, if he ain't plan to see (nah)
Tryna see the fruit, cutting out the weeds (yeah)
I live a good life on earth, we believe (yeah-yeah-yeah)

Can't believe I thought so many times I was done
But you the type to leave the 99 for The One (The One)
Who knew all I needed was a sign from the Son?
Who knew all I needed was a sign, gotta tell 'em

It's a war in the city, it's a war outside
Lucy spread lies, it's a war in the mind
Let your Kingdom Come, let it fall right now
Let your Kingdom Come, let it fall right now

It's a war in the city, it's a war outside
Lucy spread lies, it's a war in the mind
Let your Kingdom Come, let it fall right now
Let your Kingdom Come, let it fall right now

It's a war, yeah
It's a war, yeah (it's a war outside)
It's a war, yeah ("It's a war, " I said!)
It's a war, yeah ("It's a war, " I said!)
