Knox Hill - I Need a Minute

Copied!
{intro: knox hill}
Yeah, it's my healing music
{verse 1: knox hill}
Alarm rings, still dreaming of them palm trees
Somewhere out in palm springs, play me some more psalms, please
Got my head up in my palms praying: please
Pay the fee, i been down, i been weak
I been sick o' counting sheep
Quick i'm drowning on my feet
Slip i balance on these feats
I been doubting all my dreams
I mean i need sleep
I feign for these beats
I bleed on these sheets
My dreams are in reach, so i'm singing, leaning:
{chorus: mcgwire}
Yeah, you know i'm still counting on you
Even if you're dead and gone
Know i'm still counting on you
Yeah!
Yeah, i'll never stop living my truth
'causе i don't want to try alone
So i'm asking: "please what do i do?"
Yеah!
{verse 2: knox hill}
Lost my grandfather not a week ago
He used to pick me up from school and taught me what i need to know
But he got sick, dementia hit, disease had start to eat him whole
But i been on the road, trying to heat my flows and feed my home
That call came, on the video he had me shook
I called the airline, next plane my flight was booked
It was a rush, but i swore that i would make it
Pops picked me up from dulles, i was praying he was waiting
We hit the beltway, like damn, too much breaking
We tried to keep it cool, but i knew that fate was hating
I turned up the tunes we pushing through, i was mistaken
Twenty minutes out phone rings: "he didn't make it"
"what? like what you mean he didn't make it?
I told him i was coming, what you mean? he should be waiting!"
I pulled up to his house, but that's now the wrong location
The angel's got his number, and his home's been elevated, damn
{chorus: mcgwire}
Yeah, you know i'm still counting on you
Even if you're dead and gone
Know i'm still counting on you
Yeah!
Yeah, i'll never stop living my truth
'cause i don't want to try alone
So i'm asking: "please what do i do?"
Yeah!
{verse 3: knox hill}
Tell me things i didn't know
I let the bass cry, i don't think that i can give it hope
Two hundred in my pocket, i was hoping i could miss a go
I paid for the studio and let the speakers hit my soul
Wrong time i am in the wrong setting
But the music is the closest thing i can get to heaven
My tears fill this verse, i don't know who i'm affecting
I pour my heart into these rhymes, i hope you get the message
I come from pg, it's a land full of zeros
Without role models, but that man was my hero
So grandfather, i just hope i make you proud
May you play this up in heaven, and i hope it makes you smile
I just hope you looking down, your grandson is still grinding
Nah, i ain't make it yet, but it's all in good timing
I do this for my daughters and my wife who's right behind me
Until the day we meet again, just know i'll keep on climbing, 'till i see you at the top
{chorus: mcgwire}
Yeah, you know i'm still counting on you
Even if you're dead and gone
Know i'm still counting on you
Yeah, i'll never stop living my truth
'cause i don't want to try alone
So i'm asking: "please, what do i do?"
Yeah!
