This is
Yeah
Jacob Mbayo, huh
Rahel what up!
Woah
Yeah
Woah
Yeah
Woah
Yeah
Let's go
Last year was a long ride
We lost lives and we lost time
Hearts, minds tore us apart
Kind of like the apartheid
There was a time where sanity
Yeah I lost mine
So we're caught in this false grind
Where it feels almost wrong
To call out an enemy if they cross lines
Victimized by assault, crimes
And those put in power seem to walk blind
But when it's our kind, it's all fine and they just charge fines
In an era that is moving at the speed of a click
It really takes a man slaughtered on camera for people to really see that it's sick
And when the posts on social media start dying out
The problem starts to cease to exist
This world, I ain't staying
People out in the streets letting that can blam
I had to speak about it, sat down and started getting on a roll
In other words, for this I can't stand
Okay
I drop jewels like Killer Mike and El-P
Tell my stories though hella rhymes and LP's
You frauds speak a dialect we don't dare speak
And that means there's nothing that they can tell me
I'm not a hypebeast
But these gorillas chasing checks to be supreme and will never be on my LV
I pray the Lord keeps me healthy
I'm in the gym doing me, turning L's into LB's
Honestly the constant hate is starting to vex me
Pardon me if the fake love don't impress me
I didn't plan to be called the chosen
My raps are the spur of the moment like DeMar DeRozan
But I prepare for the worst and I pray for the best
And try to look at my obstacles like I'm taking a test
I poor my heart into these lines and every single lyric
This is a message for anybody that needs to hear it
And I feel all I can do is do wrong
Had to speak about it, been silent for too long
How I'm feeling
How I'm feeling is too strong
Searching for how to move on
It's clear to me
Together's how it's supposed to be and
Yes
With you and me
We'll make it through eventually
Yes
Quarantine after quarantine
So it seems it gets more extreme
As a kid you probably vow to stay strong and never fall in front of no disease
But in the heat of the moment, we had the coldest feet
Everything closed, but I still speak openly
Floating deep in my inner thoughts tryna pick apart who I was like
I couldn't even notice me
So I kick game on the mic
(What's that?)
Jordan 3's
(Right)
And it still sound good like some Jodeci
I'm bringing victories back home for the bro to see
Uh huh
I'm doing me, don't need a crew for help
(Not at all)
They steady asking why I focused on the rapping
Like I ain't been spitting since I was a kid, I'm staying true to self
(Right)
Like I ain't been stacking books filled with rhymes by the dozen
All over the desk and my parents newest shelves
(Right)
'Cause staying true to yourself could be the purest wealth
(Come on!)
Look, I gotta devise a plan
That's not about the paper or moving a thousand fans
But more about the love and about giving out a hand
And showing someone that there is way more to like than grams
But me myself have seen the societal screen placed upon certain realms
And they really don't understand
That's why I need me a scheme unrelated to green
So we can come together and you could see what I'm saying
And what I'm saying is that times will get rough
But will you fall and back down or stand tall and get up
Seeing brothers knocked down and my family in the clouds
Didn't say it out loud, but it got me messed up
Walking through this life alone is very scary, I get it
If you ever wanna find a quest together, I'm with it
Throughout all of this pain, I still look for my purpose
'Cause the day you stop searching is the day you stop living
And I feel all I can do is do wrong
Had to speak about it, been silent for too long
How I'm feeling
How I'm feeling is too strong
Searching for how to move on
It's clear to me
Together's how it's supposed to be and
With you and me
We'll make it through eventually
