[Intro]
What the fuck?
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Say what the fuck?
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Yeah what the fuck?
Ye-yeah, ye-yeah
Say what the fuck?
And we back, yeah we back
Said we back, so relax
Yeah we back, and we back
So relax, just relax
Said we back, yeah we back, yeah we back, yeah we back
So relax, just relax, just relax, just relax
Say how you feel, n***a tell 'em how you feel
Say how you feel, n***a tell ’em how you feel
Say how you feel, n***a tell 'em how you feel
Say how you feel, n***a tell 'em how you feel
[Verse 1]
Shit
I’m feeling like fuck it I'm taking mines
Always been a n***a with a disposition
Didn't ever listen so I played the villain
Pacing like a mental patient, 'bout to kill it
Gotta get it while the getting's good
I'ma strike while the iron's the perfect heat
Man I make all these n***as look obsolete
The examples of what you should never be
Take the pen and I create a masterpiece
Eulogy for the beat, let it rest in peace
I'm an anomaly that you never seen
On the quest for the wealth, I’m not talking green
Looking for the knowledge, nothing in between
Said my pendulum swing like a guillotine
I’m convinced I can really do anything
Said my shit is dope, it sound like Medellin
You fuck around, they'll find you in the mezzanine
I wanted better things, a mausoleum dream
I’ll be immortalized they'll treat me like a king
I'll fill the void you're feeling
It’s the craziest thing that I make 'em swallow
You should thank your maker if you see tomorrow
'Cause the time we living on is fucking borrowed
Gotta pay into this if you play the way you try to get out the same position you been in
It appears that you fought wit' yo' back to the wall if you really gon' rat on them all
[Verse 2]
I payed the cost, I took a loss
Yeah I got faults and I know this
But I regroup, then I recoup
Got off the ground and then got on my grind
Moving forward, I'm not looking behind
Second guessing wasting all of my time
Don't block out my light, just let this shit shine like aah
Can I breathe?
Can I think?
Can I just be me?
Indentured servitude, y'all act like it's a crime to be free
When I rhyme, I release, this tension on my mind
Can you please show some compassion to a n***a before the day that I leave?
I'm tryna float like a butterfly, and sting like a bee
Perspective I speak, can show you why the caged bird sings
A black man's nightmare is the new American dream
Let's make it great again
But can you inform me when this shit was great for everyone and not just some, I wonder
Columbus stumbled upon the mainland by making a blunder
A couple more days at sea, the Niña, Pinta and Santa Maria would have definitely fucking gone under
A fleet of pagan savages led by a broken compass
Saved by the same people, they would enslave
Spreading disease, they rape and pillage everything that they seen
What do you mean American history?
They've hideously hidden everything that they've done
That can't be forgiven, look but that's just me
And when the land and acres were split for the bread
Well, that's when it stopped being the land of the free
[Outro; Samples: Redman & Rob Swinga]
Yo, I said
Heh, I be sayin' some real word up
Now, if you didn't get it—
Figure it out when you get home!
I mean I can't understand that at all!
That's something to really make you
Stop and think and say.. hmmmmmmm!
