Quinsum gimme sum!

Never resign to tears what could be assigned to malice
Spent my whole life chasing them rabbits
Down on the path of Alice
Wondering, humming hymns
Blend in with the outsiders
Making deposits from checks they said my ass couldn't cash
Fast living, got mileage on my heartbreaks
No stylists, no Baraties, no Mardi Gras
Just an art form that turns what's awful
And what's raw into Saudi oil
My rich spirit born of merit from the most divine
I'm seeking solace in some knowledge you won't find up in the open market
I'm on clock till my eyes turn Brock
On mics philosophizing bout my bias towards life
Or how to diet from the night shift
And let some light in
My OG had came to check me in the Tesla
And put me on game
You know how far we done came?
Out from the gates
He bought a duplex far out the X
Up in New Rochelle
Not far away from where we laid a suplex
Up on some tapes
It was Zay and I laying bloody murder
Our work was buried deep up in the dirt
As it resurfaced to find a purpose
Up in my verses
Stay on alert it's very pertinent
As I unearth this
Generational curses that lessen my worth
I don't take time to acknowledge the hurt
Or what I deserve
But as I reminisce deep on what my OG once told me
Never resign to tears when you made it out your fears

I noticed they motives ain't what they seem to be
Why they want to keep me silent
When I'm just trying to be somebody
God I'm trying to be somebody
I'ma pay the price and I ain't sorry bout it
I might catch that lick, grip up that brick
Get you snatched up right quick
For the price to be somebody
God I'm trying to be somebody
I'ma pay the price and I ain't sorry bout it

Sing me a song
Of a life of love so deep, so genuine
That's just for me, me
Sing me a song
I'm sorry that I can no longer pretend to be
What you need

It lingers on my mind now
This I cannot hide now
I've been on a high now
(This my story!)
Living in my better in my truth so
My life in the booth flows
Something like a river
(God through me!)
I've been steady on my grind now
I can testify now
The world it is mine now
(Why you salty!?)
Loving everything that I am
Never, I ain't like them
Tryna pacify me
(They can't hold me!)

It's all by design
I figure I find a cloud with a silver lining
Tryna to defy my divineness, your highness
I levitate over temptation
They want to awaken my lower vibrations
But I peep the work of Satan
I beat break them without the use of this heat
Bullets delete they whole existence
They speak death
I retrace my steps
Watching fiends fight over this just for wreck
Hip-Hop be the recipe it be like lord!

(Tokunbo) I noticed they motives ain't what they seem to be
Why they want to keep me silent
When I'm just trying to be somebody
God I'm trying to be somebody (I'm trying)
I'ma pay the price and I ain't sorry bout it
I might catch that lick, grip up that brick (Uh-huh)
Get you snatched up right quick (Boom, boom, boom, boom)
For the price to be somebody (For the price to be somebody)
God I'm trying to be somebody (Trying)
I'ma pay the price and I ain't sorry bout it

I've been thinking a lot lately
About how our experiences affect our identity
I've been thinking about the entanglement that happens
When you can no longer know the difference between who you are and what you've Been Thru
