Levels - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

My life is great, ain't filled with hate I don't know about you

I know the world is fucked up, it's so destructive but what can I do?

I gotta roll this weed up and kick my feet up we gotta pull through

I gotta lend a hand everywhere I can, I don't need to know you

Wanna find a place that's filled with grace, come around my way

We'll stay up late, we'll bake a cake and watch movies

Let's go create, I know there's something to make, I know you can do it too

I know the world around you will always doubt you, but we'll be cool

Keep your hands up high, keep your head up high

Don't let 'em see you cry, don't let 'em see you down

Don't let 'em see you frown, I promise we'll turn this around

Keep your hands up high, keep your head up high

Don't let 'em see you cry, don't let 'em see you down

Don't let 'em see you frown, I promise we'll turn this around

My life is great, ain't filled with hate I don't know about you

I know the world is fucked up, it's so destructive but what can I do?

I gotta roll this weed up and kick my feet up we gotta pull through

I gotta lend a hand everywhere I can, I don't need to know you

We gotta come together gotta make a way we gotta find a path

We gotta make a difference, stop the wishing get up off your ass

See we done tried, but not enough don't make me laugh

I'm tired of all this racist shit, it makes me sick

What would Malcolm say, what would Martin say if they ever came back?

Let's save the world, it's fucked up why we takin' steps back?

Man all this struggle and all this hustle what about that?

You took my world, you took my pearls and you want respect?

Fuck that!

You took our world and now you want respect?
