[Verse 1]
Frequent flyer, miles got my demons playin' catch-up
Only n***a in first class, du-rag matchin’ my leather
Pride matchin' my get-up
ACW my sweater
Denim I pair together black-owned
I spend it better than most
A lion don't leave the jungle by choice
And when it was time to speak up, you was losin’ your voice
Provin' your noise only came from empty barrels
Annoys me, if I'm honest
So many did it for clout until they got it
Can we be honest? Really be honest?
When court of public opinion keep people fearin' their judgement
What's really keepin' you from it?
Really keepin' you from it?
You speak, you say you want it for real
Then why you runnin', for real?
You say you stressed, man, I was stressed too
You say you next, man, I was next too
I know the wrongs that you said yes to
Deep in depression, I was dead too

[Chorus]
I can’t go back (To)
Feelin’ like I wanna die
Feelin' like I’ll never fly
Can a real n***a touch the sky?
I can't go back (To)
Feelin' like I wanna die
Feelin' like I’ll never fly
Can a real n***a testify?
[Verse 2]
Clockin' and clockin' out
Played with Stevie, now they see me
I'm a topic now
I might drop another CD, start another drought
Wonder why they never see me, I was never around
I was workin', I was workin' doin' over-time
Got me feelin' like I'm Marvin back in '69
Too busy thinkin' ‘bout my baby in the summertime
Too busy feelin' like a n***a can't get nothin' right
I lost friends, I lost pride
I lost money, I lost hope
All my bills on the table, I see pills on the floor
I see blood on the wall, love, I'm dyin' at the door
I see pain in our people, I know we might see some more
Been a slave to the kitty, I seen homies turn to foes
I saw brothers on a high turn to fiends on the floor
Take my soul in the war, take my scars, let ‘em show
If this is it, then let ‘em know (Let ‘em know)

[Chorus]
I can't go back (To)
Feelin' like I wanna die
Feelin' like I'll never fly
Can a real n***a touch the sky?
I can't go back (To)
Feelin' like I wanna die
Feelin' like I'll never fly
Can a real n***a testify?
