filterless

naked

naked to the eye

naked to the brain

naked ain't the same as being covered now is it

no cover up from a sheet

no cover up from cover girl

no

naked

filterless

living life with no filter means I have to show who I really am

it means I cannot change who I be, just to get a man

I cannot cover up my scars nor shade over my freckles

I can't pretend like I enjoy drinking alcohol when I'd rather play with stencils

I'd rather be alone in my room and stare at the wall

crying from past pain

than be out and about trying to avoid the rain

with no filter I can't live a lie

I cannot act like I approve

I can't act like I don't create art when in reality that's all I do

I watch law and order SVU and I paint away my sorrows

I also enjoy hooping and praying like there's no tomorrow

An undeniable relationship with Christ is all that should be known about me though really

If I did have a filter ironically I'd be more filthy

because I've been washed with grace I can live filterless

because He bled for my sins and he died for my mess

Many call me strange, since I'm suppose to be a hooper

What kind of hooper likes reggae

What kind of hooper only wears chucks

What kind of hooper doesn't know the difference between Lebrons and Kobes

nor do i care

What kind of hooper likes to read

What kind of hooper paints and writes poetry and would rather watch 700 club than the playoffs

what kind of hooper is celibate

I'm that kind of hooper

and I'm that kind of person

I like watching spoken word and slams

I like making rap videos and I like writing cadences and lyrics and poems so tight

When you hear them you gotta rewind and listen twice

just to realize when I said dude had lice

what I really meant was ice

but since I was L I'm contagious it seems

Ice was kinda nice dude had jesus piece so clean

but he's never even said one prayer so his ribs were dirty underneath

it's sad but true

that's how people exist through

I'm not apart of this world, I'm homeless to these fools

and the flow got ate up too

had to spit since now I'm really full

back to the topic of living life without a filter

we are sheep among wolves

and fish among eels

thought I'd go ahead and finish this filterless feel

or this feeling of no filter

this feeling of being free

when you always tell the truth you don't have to remember the lie

see you don't have to be fake

and you don't have to feel guilty

it's the beauty of being naked

which we felt unti sin was built

but don't listen to me because I'm not the one who can kill the soul

God says in romans10:9 to be filterless leads to the goal
