The ground is wet.
I can feel my sweat.
Stretch neck to chest, pounding and pressed
Each heart beat louder than the next
And I’m stressed. It’s a test, so I press
One bare foot into the ground
In search of soot I haven’t found
Hoping to meet grass and soil,
Something naturally royal,
Only to find ice & oil.
But that’s the price of the spoil
Eating rice before it boiled
Bet it seemed nice ‘fore it soiled
What ya kids dreamed , right ?
You was busy with fright
We get it it’s aight
Wanna respect who gave us life
But now it’s us who gotta fight
For what you had in right plain sight.
Think I won’t start shit, bitch I might.
Think I’m an artist who ain’t your type but bet,
I still bleed stars and stripe, I’m a
A mix breed walk of life
Couldn’t miss me if you tried
Time to listen, drop the pride
Something ’s missing, something’s died
Hunting, fishing, sucking dry
Can’t seem to resist it, I still try
Tryna exist without these lies
Some reason I was made with these wide eyes
And I go by they, gender aside
I say what I say, tender inside
Some days go to waste, never outside
Render it fried better luck next time
Part of the climb
It’s in the chart, it’s in the sign
If it ain’t in my heart, it aint on my mind
Wanna make the art that I’m inclined
So I try three times, till I’m declined
And then I swipe it and it’s mine.
