Smile (feat. Jaya)

Smile otherwise I’d break inside Barons of family pride The pressure kills my high You could mix some different flavors, cause I can’t decide Move in the shadows but I swear I could never hide I’m used to being the underdog, amongst a flock of sheeps Steady balancing my rap career, with confident degree See I rap my name gon flip if I get a T free I’ll have to tell her that no course of action could ever master me Gees As I skeet, down the street, with my g’s, thinkin’ dreams Talkin beef, smokin’ weed, playin’ beats, writin Heat I could hardly fathom, let alone patent this vision Left my insecurities in my hometown and proceeded my mission To used to seeing my mum, break down in the kitchen Cause my father didn’t help, and welfare systems never listened Society’s fucked, hardly said but always written I know you love your girl, your just a pearl that needs fixin Smile Just Smile *Smile chant* Smile, Just Smile *Smile chant* Smile All we do is just Smile *Smile chant* Smile, Smile Arian Jones Smile through the struggle, I been laughing in pain Tryin’ to see the light but it’s just more of the same See my pigment… leaves the white skinned tense Cops harass cause my windows tint Folks cross the street… like I’m really tryin’ to steal from you Just like your people stole from me Let’s have the conversation hardly had I’m super proud that my brother is a dad But his daughter scared to go to school cause they may shoot it Up one day How she post to grow What can I say? More than brotha I don’t know See the dichotomy of this world is too crazy Need more lobotomies for oppressors and all of the racists Not tryin’ preach… but the fact is this under-privilege black kid Is speaking more truth than your pastor and your priest F your belief, I don’t care what you say People of color gettin’ killed in every which way With no one to call, never resolved, or a trial All we do is share a post, Be upset, and then we just Smile Smile
