(Intro)
Yeah Genius listen yeah
(Verse)
Jimmy and Ben were the best of friends, ever since kindergarten they remained friends
Average students trying to get better grades, Jimmy was from a committed Christian home
Reading the bible daily and praying in his room, while Ben's crib was more of a storm
His dad doing life and a sl*t for a mom, Jimmy never missed a Sunday service in his life
And Ben never been to church a day in his life, Jimmy was trying to get his masters before 25
While Ben became the man of the house at age 5, Jimmy graduated with flying colors
While Ben graduated to hanging with them killers, us rap killers and them drug dealers
I wondered what the big deal is dressing ridiculous, drinking syrup and pain killers
Ben was shallow minded like them hillbillies, he wanted to make a few Milli’s (slang for millions)
So, he joined them drug dealers, he was selling pills to pay for his bills affording better meals
He bought himself some grills they say speed thrills but it always kills, rocking the best kicks
Ben became boss to them street kids, paid them to sell drugs to other kids, jimmy knew
The wrong his best friend was doing Jimmy kept quiet as Ben them bad girls he was screwing
Ben never knew witch way he was going, Jimmy knew the word of God and kept to himself
As he watched his best friend Ben lose himself, jimmy thought to himself, why should I think
For him if he can’t think for himself
Whoa agree to disagree Jimmy was trying to get a degree and be financially free
He knew money doesn't grow off a tree, he was trying to get his bachelors only
Focus on success and comprehending his progress, praying on a daily basis
Attending every service giving the lord all the praises, giving the lord all the praises
While his best friend living in sin, he never told him a single thing about salvation or anything
He had the chance to do something instead he did nothing on his graduation, he received a
Phone call his friend was in a crazy situation Ben got shot in the head, now Ben is Dead now
His dead Jimmy fell down and started to cry screaming "why’ ‘screaming " why" that night he went
To sleep and had a dream, in front of him was something brighter than a laser beam
Before he knew it, he was looking at Ben and Ben started to talk he said " My friend I stand in
Judgement now, I feel that you are to blame somehow, on earth I walked with you day by day
And never did you point the way, you knew the lord in truth and glory but never did you tell
Me the story, my knowledge was dim, but you could have lead me straight to him
Though we lived together on earth, you never told me of the second birth, now I stand condemned
This day, because of what you failed to say, you told me many things that's true, I called you friend
And trusted you, now I learn it’s too late, and you could have saved my fate, we walked day by day and
Talked by night, yet you failed to show me the light, you let me live and let me die, knowing I would
Never live on the high, yes, I called you friend in life, I laughed with you through joy and strife, and yet
Am coming to an end and I can no longer call you friend, am in hell because of you, bro I trusted you
Bro I trusted you, bro I trusted you " Jimmy said "am sorry" Ben said "it’s too late for me but your still alive
Go make a difference" Jimmy woke up and prayed for forgiveness, now his preaching the word of God to
Everyone both young and old, Genius let me take you back to when every story had a moral
I speak the truth it’s up to you to follow, spread the word across he died for you on the cross
Of Calvary, the word of God was my greatest discovery, judging by my history his purpose for My life aren’t a Mistry, he takeaway the pain and the misery, he showed us love sincerely but
We avoid him on a daily, God am the definition of imperfection but am humbled to be your
Creation God you’ve blessed me in abundance help me make a difference, before I change the world
I got to change myself, even though I got no wealth am grateful for my good health, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah Genius ok Cloud and Dust yeah Genius, God gave me a brain and am are use it as much
As I can, you know we all gifted I chose to chase my dreams I remember buying a microphone and Spending an entire yeah without recording because I was so afraid to that I never tried but I guess I had to overcome the fear of failing for me to start achieving my goals everything is possible just put your
Heart into it and you can do it, Genius and am out
