Intro - THE BIRTH OF KARLA GOD
This was my first ever attempt at rap, it was my first ever rap related work, I wrote this at a stage in my life when I didn't even know what punch lines were, I didn't even know or had the inclination that I could become a rapper as at the time I wrote this.
So in November 2014 when White Mic, picked me and said “You seem bold, you’re bold, I think you can rap, come I’ll teach you”, I went to him and he took me on 2 rap classes, the things he taught me spiked something in me, it was like he brought out rap from me, even when I didn't know it was there.
After the classes he gave me an assignment, to write a spoken word, I picked one of my write ups from my archive of “stuff I have written” which was this one, tweaked some lines, and made it into my introduction.
SO HERE GOES THE LYRICS
You know language is limiting, especially in English speaking
How do you express what you feel in words in respect to the speed of your thoughts
That's why I speak in tongues, to proclaim my spirits thoughts
Singing spiritual songs, making secrets known
I think differently
The Greek calls it Sophia
My life is a testimony of His word, and this is non-rhetorical
The seed of Abraham, plus the joint heir with Christ equals me
Born of the word an incorruptible seed He loves me
Haven't you heard, I cannot be condemned
His word shut up in my bones, I cannot be restrained
That's why I don't trust bridges, I'd rather take a leap of faith
*
please, aspire to my aspirations
*
please, aspire to my aspirations
*
All things work together for my good because He is Jehovah overdo
Like November rhapsody says, there's nothing more I need to do
I Just seat back relax and enjoy the blessings
He's sacrifice has come and cleared all the sufferings
So as the King's kid, all I need do is answer my Father's name
And this is me, the King's kid
My name is Karla God
Nothing but phenomenal!
