James Arson discovers rap and wants to emulate the pastors confident behavior. Mistaking Narcissism for confidence in ones self.
lyrics
Chorus: Koa Siu, Kalea Siu
Look up to the sky feel the vibe, (Vibe)
But the mood ain’t right so kill the lights, (Lights)
Everyday wake up with no skill to fight,(I)
Fears scary gaze in my face give me fright,(I)
And Even though we was given time, (I)
We don’t know how to be living life, (I)
And every time they gave good advice, (I)
Every thing they said just wouldn’t sit right, (I)
Verse 1: Kekoa as James Arson
Try to search for the vibe,
Try to earn my worth, Can't Be Paralyzed,
So I know I gotta do something man,
So I'm not eighteen living off the government,
I wish I had the knowledge of what College to go to,
Continue Mixing vocals or being a business mogul,
need the peace to be total like Jesus to Constantinople,
like Jesus to Constantinople,
So I'm at the party, trying to find some praise,
Up in the audience of the church estate,
Just in time to hear the pastor say,
Just in time to hear the pastor say,
Verse 2: Kekoa as the Pastor
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +,
You know that I’m more important,
Part of it’s that I’m a narcissist,
Stared as a wild child artimis
Departed nasa now I off to Mars,
Analyst with the data say he off the charts,
Mind behind went from stop to start,
Grind my time now top new artist,
And that is cause I work the hardest
I must be a dart the way I hit them targets,
And put my goals into my soul,
So you know that I’m on a roll,
I ain’t high and dry no I won’t fold,
Can’t keep this fire in with styrofoam, uh
Music she prettier out of the batch,
I’m a wide receiver she’s quite a catch,
She honestly helped me walk a higher path,
For that I’d kamikaze yeah I’d die for that,
Verse 3: Kekoa as James Arson
Something bout his message tugged my heart strings,
Musta been the bread of life cause I'm not starving,
Wanna keep this going like I was Marvin,
Proud to embrace the fact that I'm James Arson, yuh,
Chorus: Koa Siu, Kalea Siu
Look up to the sky feel the vibe, (Vibe)
But the mood ain’t right so kill the lights, (Lights)
Everyday wake up with no skill to fight,(I)
Fears scary gaze in my face give me fright,(I)
And Even though we was given time, (I)
We don’t know how to be living life, (I)
And every time they gave good advice, (I)
Every thing they said just wouldn’t sit right, (I)
Chorus: Koa Siu, Kalea Siu
Look up to the sky feel the vibe, (Vibe)
But the mood ain’t right so kill the lights, (Lights)
Everyday wake up with no skill to fight,(I)
Fears scary gaze in my face give me fright,(I)
And Even though we was given time, (I)
We don’t know how to be living life, (I)
And every time they gave good advice, (I)
Every thing they said just wouldn’t sit right, (I)
