[Chorus Rizzi Myers Upchurch] Everyones times gonna fade away Dust to dust and Amazing Grace Only thing Im leaving is my last name Oh, and an empty grave [Verse 1 Upchurch] One day Ill be in a box I aint talkin about a grave Im talkin bout a box of greatest hits I made along the way Found on a dirt road cause I aint never had shit paved And when the roots grow back Ill be a mystery per se No askin folks in Nashville cause I refuse to go and sign Walked in houses of legends that made a impact on your life Takin advice from people who have platinum records with Slim Shady Went on vacation with country superstars even though Im crazy And on a psycho social roller coaster, no seat belts doin loops My mind got a vault like a doomsday preppin loony toon Stay boucin off these walls like my house is made of gymnastic mats And Ill be rappin til Im 90 out of shape with cataracts Cause I aint got to see a road to cut a trail and make a path Im 27 and I know this whole city feelin my wrath Just wait til Im 30 and fine tuned like a Stratocaster Im not biodegradable still the cleanest white trash and Im Church [Chorus Rizzi Myers Upchurch] Everyones times gonna fade away Dust to dust and Amazing Grace Only thing Im leaving is my last name Oh, and an empty grave [Verse 2 Upchurch] Most people in denial about the timeline of life The burnin of a flame one goes out then one goes up and strikes I stepped into the shallow water knowin one day Ill drown To the noise of screamin voices and Instagram shutter sounds Right now for me its just now, startin to get kinda loud Im gettin pointed out in malls from a couple surroundin crowds People threatin to jump me and want to show up to my house Youre creatin a crazy person with loaded guns in his house And everyday that passes Im becomin more intelligent to social negligence No matter what the cadence is all I see is some adjectives Im drastically paintin you cinematic action Mixed with words I scrambled off of every part of the alphabet How gooder can I get I think the game is hibernatin Or overdosed on manufactured faces and sound waves So wont you put me in that box and put my voice in one thats separate Ones a death box the others gonna be a livin statement and they know it [Chorus Rizzi Myers Upchurch] Everyones times gonna fade away Dust to dust and Amazing Grace Only thing Im leaving is my last name Oh, and an empty grave [Verse 3 Upchurch] Knock, knock. Whos there? Its the end of your career Yeah whats up you motherfucker been waitin to see you here Ive been dyin to meet you and thats really no pun intended Ive met every goal I wanted made the impact for my people And held them southern roots before every song that I made And got invited to show up and attend the CMAS But my ass never went I went ghost when they called me to that stage Cause I dont need people to clap to make me proud of my name To make me proud of my songs, to make me proud of my lyrics I was built out of southern spirit only found in the thicket My bloodline the thickest, fuck all the fame and the riches That shit all fades away but not the voice of a legend whos preachin And thats why they call me Church, cross my heart hope to die Stick a needle in my eye, and have to do it three times To even almost make me blind, cause my third one dont even blink So I see you before you see yourself when you try comin for me Church [Chorus Rizzi Myers Upchurch] Everyones times gonna fade away Dust to dust and Amazing Grace Only thing Im leaving is my last name Oh, and an empty grave
