Overdose Lyrics

[Intro]
Hey 'Crae, I hear they tryin' to blow
Money fast right?
We ain't tryin' diss nobody, but
They gon' talk drugs, let's give
Em' that Overdose

[Verse 1]
I'm feelin' good, forget my feeling tho
Let's talk about my fillin', filled with tha Holy Ghost
And I ain't talkin' smoke, I'm talkin' fire
I'm tryna' shock the world, before they cut my wires
I'm on that overdose, old me comatose
See him let me know cause if you did you probably seen a ghost
Fire in my bones, I'm spittin' flames
Boy that Word of God get at you like a Twitter name
Truth up in my veins, everyday I need it
But you don't hear me tho, you used to different speakers
They speak death and they stories ain't at all the truth

They like to think they ballers, they just some foul shooters
I'm so real 100 percent authentic
I know how fake feel I dropped him off at the clinic
Told em he need rehabilitation (gone take him) get him clean

Met that Triune Light (what's that?) triple beam

[Hook]
Gone check him in, before they close the door
You got that Rehab, this is the overdose
I'm on that overdose (3 times)
Old me comatose
[Verse 2]
They think I'm churchy, they think ya boy a lame
Yeah I live for Jesus, I'm unashamed
They talkin' reckless what you spectin' from the walkin' dead
You try to give em life, they want that death instead
But 1st John make it clear what they wanna hear
Hear go that overdose, go stick it in they ear
I got my prescription, it's all consuming
Eat His Flesh drink His Blood, Holy Communion
I know the Truth is hitting home like Barry Bonds
Yeah my God run the streets like a marathon
Yes! I'mma believer Yes! I rep the Kingdom
They ask me where to find the Lord they ain't never seen Him
Homie, God ain't got no longitude or latitude
He's on another level you can't put a ladder to

Aye! gone check him in, before they close the door
You got that Rehab, this is the overdose

[Hook]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

On “Overdose” Lecrae compares how people are seeking worldly things to the way he seeks and lives his life for Jesus Christ. The beat also sounds very familiar to his September 2010 track “High”, off of his album Rehab.
