Even if you benefit from certain parts of a system, it's still important to criticize it
(To the level heights!) Yeah, let it ride, let it ride
Uh, let it ride
Should I put the tag in? Imma put the tag in
(DJ Tidesoft!) Ayo
It's borderline insane how I been on ten again
For three years straight, it's been great I can't tell when to end
It's like an etched-in trait in me to kill y'all with a pen
And yet I feel like you intend to rag on me again
It's hard to pinpoint the difference between me and them
Besides that big point that they're nowhere near to a gem
I'm like obsidian made at high heat and cooled down for you to handle them
My igneous skin is here again
I might blow up on y'all this time 50 say many men
Wish death pon him, I ain't no killer but I'm feeling him
Whether I'm in the gym or singing hymns I can feel the phlegm
All these Karens in training clearing their throats again
Borderline condemning me for coming to their place again
When it's their dough that brought me in their space and when
I do all I can and say I need a break that's when
I hear "You can't break obsidian it's rare, you're sailing
(To the level heights!) Yeah, lawd lawd knows
Wake cares so much about what the outside world is gonna, like, say or think
And therefore I think they put like (yeah)
An absurd amount of pressure on us as students to like (hah!)
Achieve so much, to do so much, to be
Here, there, and everywhere because like that's what Wake is
I said igneous, not metamorphic
I don't endorse this
I've done that but I abhorred it
Why I gotta be the one to code switch
Cuz I've done it don't mean I enjoy it
It's like putting my Blackness on layaway
More like a mortgage
Cuz like I got it
But I don't own it
Till thirty years down the line
And then I forgot how to hold it
Feels like this was according to plan
We're only two generations from the Ku Klux Klan in my neighborhoods
(Out in public) caveat needed cuz they'll steal my joy just like a raider would
Cater to the greater good
Hate me like a hater would
So to survive I'll deny my mind state to be understood
I'll act as white as Carrie Underwood
When I'm a Mickey Guyton
There's only so much my skin can brighten
I'll be intelligent so my respect is heightened
I wanna shine like a diamond
But for the Blackness, there ain't no hidin'
I think there this, like, stigma that, like
Students here need to be working all the time
And when they're not working then they need to be partying or they need to be doing something social
Or when they're not doing something social
Out in the world doing doing community service or They need be volunteering or in this club
And so Wake creates this like, atmosphere
That you have to be somewhere being something for someone else
When in reality sometimes we just need to be something to ourselves
