Dear future fam, if you're hearing this now
I been through a couple battles
But I'm holding it down
I been screaming at the stars
Hoping to make a sound
If fate carries me to you
I guess it didn't drown out the noise
And I don't know your names
But I can hear your voices
Telling me to keep going
Until reality blows me back
And asks me what am I doing

I took a step in a foreign land
They can't understand me
Cuts in my wrist mirror my soul
Abusers trynna brand me
Bitter from metal chain links scars
On my body
Beat me down and lock me up
But they cannot confine me
They think they slick
By trynna hide me
Political rhetoric and legal jargon
Don't define me
And I ain't glorifying this life
I'm just saying they gon' find out the hard way,
The light of my legacy
Is blinding

We don't pray for better days
We make a way from no way
They strip our situations
Down to litigation
And tell us we not worth
Staying on stolen land
Quick to cover eyes
And tie they hands
Die for the American dream
I can't even fantasize
Nightmares
Bout my brethren
That capsized
Land of the brave
But won't take accountability
Yea I got tears in my eyes
The pain gets to me

We break our backs
And never return home
I'm worth nothing
But my labor is gold
I've left everything and everyone
I've ever known
I hope the motherland
Still knows
Tell her I love her
Even in this land
Tell her I love her
Even when they bury me, carry me
Tell her I love her
Tell her I love her
