Lyrics

Philly Foster Kid

[Verse 1]
Once upon a time, I had a normal life,
Then the Devil flipped the script, "boom", nuthin but strife,
Simple life and times just vanished in a blink,
Struggled, like skating on an unfrozen Hockey Rink,
Just numbers in the system, Philly Foster Kids lost,
Thrown out, abandoned, pieces of garbage tossed,
Twenty Two Hundred of my fellow homies, waiting for their forever home,
Not invisible or forgotten, man Jesus bringing y'all Home!

[Chorus]
Felt the rush of his living water,
Felt the love for his sons and daughters,
He reorders the pecking order,
This Philly Foster Kid is Now setup in Heavens Quarters
