Growing up in the metropolitan area
Various situations carry us, as we break the barriers
We just black males, with crack cells
Colors fade is pastels, set a blaze or exhale
Spit in rage or spit nails
Find away, no fish scales
If it details, I'll get the intel, I took risk well
At least i meant well
If you look inside of my time capsule
You probably find, i was supposed to rhyme
It was ultra grind, you never do know sometimes
When you so close to find, caughting a peace of mind
Then it's so divine, watching the stars align I mean
All my people not here in the physical, your still
A light being, despite not seeing invisible
Strings tie us together as group of individuals
You think it's minimal, but it's critical we connect with the spiritual
And they with me still, it's surreal when we build
I can feel the chills, that it in stills, then i pray a kneel
Now thats for DILL, as I dip my quill
In the midst of fields, where i wrote my ills
That a quiche your gills yeah
No apology, the patch traveled followed me
In the land of hypocrisy
I try to shape a mold like pottery
Hope i hit the lottery, and leave it up to God
Acknowledge me
My dear friend
Don't put yourself down
You've done well so far
If it seemed so bad
You're no longer alone
We'll walk the same road
The rainbow across the sky
Seek it and you shall find
I use to be somewhat unfortunate until I became fortunate
And now I'm outside on the porch with it
You know your chosen when your ancestor's pass you the torch and its lit
Can't turn back it's no for fit'n
And then its right back in this systematic loopwhole
When u fold and your told imagine what the truth holds
Written in scrolls we were better than this
You can tell it was fixed, you can smell it when u land in the pit
Your intuition can tell that you slipped
Don't give up yet, leap forward no stress, no regrets (yeah-uhn)
We only see progress, bald up fist protest
Even if its no rest, dont stress (uhn-uhn)
Its gotta be a better way out, a better way in or better yet a better way then (huh)
Now close ya eyes and just imagine yourself in a better place and let God
Take over and then AWAKE (then awake)
Refuse to lose its time to shine we gonna get it
K-NAT, SLUM-V, WONK we really with it
Harsh times upon us and this is way before COVID haunted us
The road to success is still calling us
If we can make a difference just in one person's life
Then we can make a difference in the whole world tonight, that's right!
So we don't have to cry no more
Thank God we alive once more
Now let's go (let's go)
My dear friend
Don't put yourself down
You've done well so far
If it seemed so bad
You're no longer alone
We'll walk the same road
The rainbow across the sky
Seek it and you shall find
You'll be right, alright?
Everything's gonna be alright
You'll be right, alright?
Everything's gonna be alright
