[Verse 1]
I've been praying to the God above me
The shit I do to cope this shit ain't lovely
My people been hungry
My soul's in a dummy
Don't take my sweater from me
I'm feeling better lonely
Cause I ain't seeing phonies
But I ain't seeing trophies
I heard my cousin told me that he been seeing police
I'm like Zed with no peace cause I've been getting cold feet
When I feel rap ain't for me
I ain't been rapping for me
I've been dying slowly

[Verse 2]
I've been praying to the God above me
The shit I do to cope this shit ain't lovely
My people been hungry
My soul's in a dummy
It's cold in the summer
I''m told to run from her
Cause love been a bummer
I lost another brother
Been saying fuck forever
I don't live to cater
I don't live for these feelings
I blame my upbringing
Cause these thoughts have been chilling
Bout the rope on the ceiling

[Outro]
My father told me that this school ain't for free
I said that school ain't for me
He asked what you gon' be
You better get your degree
So people can see
That you're just like me
A man we need you to be
Don't you ever believe
You can follow your dreams
Just keep your feet on the ground head under the clouds
Just follow the crowd don't make a sound don't be loud
Now go make us proud
