I owe my life to the culture Used to see it from a bird's eye view But could never say that I was a vulture Marchin' through city hall, middle of a pandemic Cop cars in flames, the pain was transcendent While Black souls marching through the pearly gates The poverty or the pigs put 'em in early graves Don't tell me they deserve their fate Every time the sun rise in my city so does the murder rate Their blood becoming part of the pavement Either that or they're being incarcerated Lack of love is fillin' their heart with hatred It's hard to see it, it's even harder to say it But it's just truth Them judges bang the gavel like they don't want proof Turnin' men to monsters like it's Halloween when they puttin' Black bodies in them orange jumpsuits This shit'll scare ya, we livin' in a different era I wrestle with my conscious like I'm Ken Patera Can't say I never glorified it Can't ignore the violence The shit I seen is horrifying No justice, no peace F*ck the police, no brotherly love in those streets It feel like hell up in Philly, goddamn We just tryna stay cool like Vok Man Old Man Winter Voss, wassup kool? You know I'm with you, kool Uh I took a chance and danced in the romance And glanced at the enhanced bankroll in my pants Hypnotized in a trance from wakin' up off of Xans And I don't know if I'm takin' off or tryna land So I chalked it as God's plan 'Cause remember me and my man, we swore to protect land And they never tried it again, so we said that we need hands Without the if's and the and's and but's But what then? When all I got is my pen, and in my eyes I'm from Japan And in my heart, I'm from Iraq with America in my ear I have ice in my veins, I have nothin' to fear I have smoke in my lungs, weed crumbs in my beard And beer on my breath, stressed, makin' it weird Tryna finesse unless they was makin' it fair Enjoyin' life so much, I taste death in the air It smell like a chocolate eclair, you got the right to be scared Shine all day and damn, by night you'll be dead Grind all day and man, by night you'll be rich By night you'll be rich Grind all day and man, by night you'll be rich Old Man Winter
