Hip-Hop

Aba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, I swam for miles, only to realize the current

Is fightin' against me and I'm so tired, I'm floatin' now

Oh, from here on out, I've got to realize the power

Over-analytical brain a product of the shame

And runnin' from a past, that's checkered like the game

Somewhere 'long the way somebody snatched my peace and main

Maybe that's the reason I spent decades seekin' fame

And fortune hopin' that a proper portion would contain

The sadness in my eyes, remember when I came

In this music business, all their questions was insane

"Why you never smile in your pictures?" I refrain

From givin' you the answer 'cause that answer wasn't plain

Enough for me to see 'cause at the time I knew my name

But didn't know myself, and so I dealt with shit the same

As a fugitive, but running from the truth and shit

But they never knew the shit that's hidden deep

Within the crevices like ever since I was a child

Seen my mama with the pistol pointed at her dome and how

In the fuck do you expect for me to ever be the best lil' me

That I can be, when trauma's deep inside of me, like I.V.

Fluid Pumpin' through the blood of wifey, while she's givin' birth

To my child, I know my thoughts are runnin' wild

Bear with my style, this just a trial run

Just heard these kids don't know 'bout Malcolm

And I'm sort of heartbroken 'cause the elders lost hope in our youth

And here I sit dead in the middle not a little boy no more

But not quite old yet, wakin' up in cold sweats

Scared that I'm too disconnected from the kids' perspective

The world ain't got no patience for some shit that's

Introspective So where in the fuck that leave me? Irrelevant, I guess

Went from Heaven-sent to hella bent, intelligent but stressed, damn

Every day I rise, thank God that I am alive (Yeah)

Every day I rise, thank God that I am alive (Uh)

Some things you gotta leave behind, some people just like weather

And seasons, for that reason, I know I'll always have a leg up

Weatherman forecast me dead last, think I'm just another nigga

Maybe, I'll be the next Black Beatle like Swae Lee

Yeah, I know my worth, these colonizers got to pay me

Yeah, I had to go first 'cause the rest would never last

I had to show the positives for those that couldn't add

Lookin' at the ads, they only love us if our ass

Out and so I'm out, I got an Audi and it's bad

I said that line 'cause niggas only respect you if you brag

It don't work with me the same, don't give a fuck 'bout what you have

Everybody claimin' boss, none of you niggas got no staff

It don't measure up the same, what's a quarter to a half?

Of a whole lot of problems, nigga, who taught you to add?

Where I'm from, we don't recognize that it's good math

If you don't teach the ones that's comin' up to multiply their cash

Everything with worth don't come with some whistles and some bells

The ones I gotta leave behind, the ones you gotta bail

Meek Mill, I'm workin' hard, ain't too far from a meek mil'

To keep it real, the realest niggas I know always kept it real

And I'ma tell you, Black-on-Black murder been whack

9th, turn me up so they can hear me in the back

But you see hopeful niggas and where they all ought to be

Scared to grow wings, Birdman with a bunch of Carter beef

That's old news, look nigga, you talkin' to modern me

Smarter, we had better conversations sittin' with barbers

School y'all, school y'all, welcome to the schoolyard

Teach you how to make moves without needin' a UHAUL

Now it's you all that's all on these nuts

I'm ballin', havin' a ball and I got the balls to say it

Who needs inspiration where you know when you can play it?

Carolina to the heart, nobody here gon' play us

The day that we expire, Carolina's where they'll lay us

I woke up feelin' like Aaliyah, yeah, a million and one bucks

Told these niggas I don't give a single million and one fuck, Rap
