Owww (owwwwwww)

Uh uh (uh uh) [x3]

It's like (it's like)

Sometimes I feel alienated

Because I'm not up in this alien plant

Or on the radio sayin'

Fuck 'em: broads we don't love 'em we degradin' 'em

But always find my self back at the backanadian

Blood vessels poppin' out my craniums

Niggas askin' when the tape gon' drop

But I got nothin' to say to them

Because I been stackin this skill

Although my passion is real

I'm too cool to cash in the feel

When I should be cashin' a mil

It's something bout me being younger

That affected my hunger

Got older in number

Realized I can't count on these hundreds

To determine my elation

Pursuit of happiness I keep pacin'

These motherfucka's faces

These ain't fear races

They just let the fit erase us

Adopted by the slum

Son of cards this is how they raped us

Yo son we gotta raise up

Don't let them just array us

'Till we raisins in the sun

So we gotta wake up

Cause they always be behind in the cut

Always in the skies watchin' stars when they up

So don't you confide into the evil and corrupt

This is urgent

Apex on the vertex

And I'm with seven serpents

Cause they always be behind in the cut

Always in the skies watchin' stars when they up

So don't you confide into the evil and corrupt

This is urgent

Got a whole bunch of shit up on my plate now

Thinkin' like in the man garden it's a snake now

Cause I don't know who to believe

Or who to deceive

Got me thinkin' I

Sold my soul and they received a receipt

But I won't proceed to retreat

Jigga told me watch your thrown seat

And now I sees it

And the respect to big

I gotta cease it

And I hope he see me

Cause these niggas don't want beef with my talents

They ain't fit for this green

They just caesar salad

You think because you avid they just gonna let you have it

It's a lot to learn and that my nigga need to ask us

It's the axis of the earth at the birth

I found a new balance

And now I walk on water just like I knew balance just like a relative

Marijuana sedatives got me thinkin' I should put a bomb right where the senate is

Cause they corruptin' the youth

We ain't inductin' the truth

Lookin' at the president like yo it must be nothin' to you

I passed the dutch to left and it started to make sense

It's funny how I see it more straight when I'm bent

You've been warned on the wrist to take a sit on top

Been on clock

Cause you could see that I been on watch

It don't stop

'Till you make the sacrifices

Trainin' was priceless to ices and devices

When the light switch I shift like I'm typin'

Livin' in the era where christ is the crisis

The lifeless in the trance actin like yo mans

Bitch niggas only know that transactions is the plans

But the mic is in my hands so I faild the booth

The blacker the berry is the more sour the fruit

They ejectin' us to make us cowards

To the power of truth

Became flowers from roots

And now we just move in cahoots

I move from the stoop and put my foot right down on the asphalt

Every night I ask lord if this what I asked for
