Lejon Lewis

Verse 1

Came from a spark in the darkness
brave in the face of the hate and the heartless
under ya wave
saw the blade of a shark’s fin
let em throw shade
i ca sunbathe i’m dark skin
mighta had a crew
that liked to pass a brew
but know who carried you
through them boulevards and avenues
where death getting very acquainted
gun showers
made shells rain on the pavement
subordinate
among the unfortunate
swore he poured water
on the floor and walked over it
got lined by his right hand
who denied it
silent
nailed it to him Pontius Pilate
false peers cost some years
singled out double crossed
thats a cross to bear
pray God forgive em
cause they know not
to seek religion or division
its the same ol’ plot

hook

Jesus
(Lejon) i need you to walk with me
yeahhhh
i need you
(Lejon) please just talk with me

Jesus
(Lejon) i need you to walk with me
i need you
(Lejon) please just talk with me

verse 2

i grew up believing in Jesus
thats all i knew
my mother and my father endorsed him
so i followed through
my grandma
had his picture everywhere
i would stare
at his blue eyes
and long blonde hair
and when i watched my grandma
take her last breath
i was like “she with him now
she passed her last test”
(God bless)
i never had a reason to doubt him
grew up reading about him
till demons seem to surround us
apple went rotten
cats start droppin
i did a lot of yelling
wasn’t bar hoppin
God i don’t see Ya footprint
in the sand
left me hanging like the klan
or did he give me a hand
what do i tell the alter boy
who got an almond joy
from Father Roy
how many do y'all employ?
same God that took my brother
had two kids
i’d rather you had picked my number

hook 2

Jesus
(Lejon) i need you to walk with me
yeaahhhh
i need you
(Lejon) please just talk with me

Jesus
(Lejon) i need you to walk with me
yeaahhhhh
i need you
(Lejon) please just talk with me

about

junclassic Queens, New York

junclassic is NOT Your average emcee. His voice is striking, something between the weighted baritone of a Bigge Smalls coupled with the streetwise snarl of a Prodigy. He often speaks in daily life narratives, barely escaping the pitfalls of New York City. Refreshingly candid, jun highlights the emotional burdens of Afrocentric modernity, a middle-aged Black man trying to make it all make sense. ... more
