Ceelo Is Bringing God To A Gun Fight (2003)
On one of the most slept-on songs in the Outkast (read: Big Boi solo) catalog, “Reset,” CeeLo ends the track spitting pure poetry:
I awaken to sunlight that’s beyond bright
This day will be done right
There is a war, just waiting on the other side of the door
But I’ll be bringing God to the gunfight
Can’t live forever, so have some fun, right
Life’s a bowl of candy, you can have one, right
You can handle if tomorrow never comes, right
You’ll get used to singin if only for one night
But I intend to raise two daughters and a son right
And I couldn’t have wrote this if I was hopeless
And see I focus to provoke this
So open wide for my opinionated opus
Stop playin Go Fish, but not below this
Before I go, I thought that you all should know this
Recognize and realize before any regretting
Before you relapse, perhaps you’ll consider resetting
