INIDIE TRIBE – Slidin

Lyrics: Slidin by INIDIE TRIBE

[Intro: nobigdyl., Jon Keith]
Hey, Mykael, Mykael, Jon’s recording, man
Helped so much with the…
Can you close the door or tell them- to leave?
We good?

[Chorus: Jon Keith]
Lately, I ain’t been on no island
Baby, now you know where to find me
Crazy, how it’s all in God’s timin’
They hate me, but I’m still goin’ diamond
Came up quick, used to slip, now we slidin’
Mouth full of gold, (I) used to glow, now we shinin’
Came up quick, (I) used to slip, now we slidin’
Stuck to the code, (I) used to glow, now we shinin’

[Verse 1: Jon Keith]
Got it out the dirt (Ayy)
I used to think I need a dime to tell me what I’m worth (Come on, what’s your worth? Your worth, worth?)
I never run out of thesе lines if stay in the versе (Yeah)
I was the very last one, you think will come in first, I took the red pill (Yeah, ayy)
Grandma said she wit’ it long as I can pay the bills (Tick-tick)
Told her, “When I make it, she get house up on the hills” (Tick-tick)
Last year, she ain’t make it, how am I supposed to feel?
I can’t follow through the deal, but labels callin’ ’bout some deals (Brrow, yeah)
Ain’t doin’ no explainin’ (Yeah)
Slid on thin ice, you’re lyin’ to entertain (Yeah, brrt)
Holy smoke, I’m on the highs ’til the devil want a fade
We made it to twenty-five, haha, I feel amazin’ (Yeah!)

[Chorus: Jon Keith]
Lately, I ain’t been on no island
Baby, now you know where to find me
Crazy, how it’s all in God’s timin’
They hate me, but I’m still goin’ diamond
Came up quick, used to slip, now we slidin’
Mouth full of gold, (I) used to glow, now we shinin’
Came up quick, (I) used to slip, now we slidin’
Stuck to the code, (I) used to glow, now we shinin’

[Verse 2: Mogli the Iceburg]
Uh, uh, let me talk to ’em (Let me talk)
Realness, the only language that I got fluent (Yeah, I got ’em)
A lot of questions in my mind, I couldn’t stop chewin’
Know the righteousness ain’t only measure what you not doin’, where’s the fruit? (Where is it?)
Keep it a buck, man, I went off the rails
After I had my heart broken, cut in half, and impaled
I cut the light off from the source, I didn’t handle it well
My body count went to the moon, I put my spirit through hell
But still, I see redemption when I look at my wife (Yes sir)
And I’m reminded of the goodness found in followin’ Christ (Uh-huh)
Now I’m flyin’ ’round the country, rockin’ crowds with the mic
And all the pain up in my verses, fillin’ kids up with life
I’m sayin’

[Chorus: Jon Keith]
Lately, I ain’t been on no island
Baby, now you know where to find me
Crazy, how it’s all in God’s timin’
They hate me, but I’m still goin’ diamond
Came up quick, used to slip, now we slidin’
Mouth full of gold, (I) used to glow, now we shinin’
Came up quick, (I) used to slip, now we slidin’
Stuck to the code, (I) used to glow, now we shinin’
[Verse 3: nobigdyl.]
Yeah, Dyllie
Grew up in a world that didn’t want me livin’ (They want me dead, bro)
Bullied ’cause I had a father and my father’s pigment (Had my father’s pigment)
That’s from both sides, didn’t fit in my whole life (Woah)
Robbed me for my coat, and now them same folks wanna coat-ride (Gimme that coat, boy)
Dreams of goin’ gold and platinum, multi
The motive is to medicate emotions that I go hide
Oh my, mama couldn’t see me with the fo’-five
(Oh my, mama couldn’t see me with the fo’-five)
Little did she know, my type of demon on the World Wide
(Little did she know, my type of demon on the World Wide)
Web, I kept a couple dozen secrets, man, I won’t lie (Yeah)
Confession was the key He used to free me (I’m free)
The Son came in right on schedule, He not a premie
Hopin’ every season that you see Him when you see me (You feel me?)

[Chorus: Jon Keith]
Lately, I ain’t been on no island
Baby, now you know where to find me
Crazy, how it’s all in God’s timin’
They hate me, but I’m still goin’ diamond
Came up quick, used to slip, now we slidin’
Mouth full of gold, (I) used to glow, now we shinin’
Came up quick, (I) used to slip, now we slidin’
Stuck to the code, (I) used to glow, now we shinin’
