One of my patnas got swole
Doin pull-ups on that beam
I was eighteen
Skinny man dippin in pools
Wife beater over my jeans
Muscles so weak
Desert land on my face
Tears never visit my cheeks
Tryna be hard
Steal from the house next door
Then gave in the house next week
But I’m no fraud
This conflict of interest
Spiritual indifference
Blamed on God
Mine was stumbling
Tryna balance
His position under cross
They don’t mention
Holy Scriptures
That's depicting
How He saw
Women equal
Children counted
Gentiles free from under law
We somehow done got it twisted
Like a doobie
You so twisted
Like a Rasta
In Jamaica smokin doobies
Yea mon
Heavens In
Heaven
Church is In
Session
Counting these
Blessings
How can I
(Vibes)
(Slide give em fire)
How can I let go
I could see the goal
See the goal with my eyes closed
I’m on the beam
On the beam like a tightrope
(Hi)
Ya get five seconds
For I’m set to
Seek and find
I think I lost my balance
I’m still up for a challenge
Pull these beams
Til my fingers bleed
Left a open callus
Broken ballot
Call em tricks the rabbit
I said no to carrots
Bump the masses
Ya been rockin masks
Before coronavirus
Ghost riders
Ya could tote the choppas
Bet it won’t stop us
Cross the broader
Bring it back to Harlem
Like the globetrotters uh
Running man running man uh
Radiate heat like son of man uh
It’s two sides to a coin
To a dollar
To the street
To the cross and the covenant uh
So I don’t think our problem with the white man
Or the Po Po
Nah it’s really with the government uh
They the ones that turn the cray on
Tryna get you chalked
If your skin tone colored in
Put it on our job description
Birth certificates
Time you was a toddler teen
To burger flipping
Working like a slave
So your name ain’t a thing
You just worth some digits to the top
We mixing with the pot boy
Not me we triple like the stocks boy
Don’t slide and slip up like a sock boy
Bring heat when choppin with the Hot Boys
I got two black books in the top drawer
Not me we triple like the stocks boy
Don’t slide and slip up like a sock boy
Bring heat when choppin with the Hot Boys
I got two black books yuh
How can I
(Vibes)
(Slide give em fire)
How can I let go
I could see the goal
See the goal with my eyes closed
I’m on the beam
On the beam like a tightrope
(Hi)
Tryna find a balance push past the challenge
Light with me where I go
How can I
(Vibes)
(Slide give em fire)
How can I let go
I could see the goal
See the goal with my eyes closed
I’m on the beam
On the beam like a tightrope
(Hi)
Ya get five seconds
For I’m set to
Seek and find
Don’t mean to jump to conclusions
But that vertical woo
If we talking bout depths
Then I can swim through a few
Started head above water
At the neck like a crew
Don’t you drown in that pool
Weight stick to him like a cue
On a scale far from lightweight
Hard to balance that beam
Supposed to reflect light but wait
Don’t even balance the beam
Lost direction from whose directing
Cuts from the scene
Felt a draft then lost it
Like getting cut from the team
Hang by a thread of good string
That’s a tight rope for sure
And if we talking for show
My life a circus and all
My life a surplus of wrong
I’m talkin extra on extra
Wore a mask before pandemic
Put the v in vendetta
Pen
How can I
(Vibes)
(Slide give em fire)
How can I let go
I could see the goal
See the goal with my eyes closed
I’m on the beam
On the beam like a tightrope
(Hi)
Tryna find a balance push past the challenge
Light with me where I go
How can I
(Vibes)
(Slide give em fire)
How can I let go
I could see the goal
See the goal with my eyes closed
I’m on the beam
On the beam like a tightrope
(Hi)
Ya get five seconds
For I’m set to
Seek and find
