Oooh ohhhh ooh ohhhh

Oooh ohhhh ooh ohhhh (Damez)

Oooh ohhhh ooh ohhhh

(Yall can uh...spark up or whatever)

Oooh ohhhh ooh ohhhh


[Verse 1]

I been working on my craft man I ain't slept in three days

Catch me in the skies I get higher than the PJs

I push it to the max like TJ's

I'm trying to send my shit to all the DJs

If he got some smoke we can run it like the relays

(Chill out, Damez) I gotta take it easy

I bet if I was white and straight my life would be so breezy (woah)

Rappers that I used to idolize when I was growing

They bogus, sugar-coated homophobic and it's showing

Don't ever fix yo lips to say that I ain't strong

Like I ain't been to war and back or like my bro ain't gone

Like I ain't took so many L's, man yall be full of shit

Cause how the fuck you judging niggas just for trying to exist?

(Nah forreal) I close my eyes to feel the music

God gave me a gift man and I'm just trying to use it

Yeah, I'm just trying to use it

God gave me a gift man and I don't wanna lose it


[Chorus]

And I don't wanna think no more

And I don't wanna link no more

And I don't wanna try no more

(I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying)

And I don't wanna cry no more

Oooh ohhhh ooh ohhhh

(I close my eyes to feel the music)

Oooh ohhhh ooh ohhhh

Oooh ohhhh ooh ohhhh

(I gotta take it easy)

Oooh ohhhh ooh ohhhh

(I feel so freeeeeee!)

And I don't wanna think no more

(I close my eyes to feel the music)

And I don't wanna link no more

(Freeeeeeeeee!)

And I don't wanna try no more

(I close my eyes to feel the music)

And I don't wanna cry no more

And I don't wanna think no more

And I don't wanna link no more

And I don't wanna try no more

(I don't wanna try no, I don't wanna try no more)

And I don't wanna cry no more

(I don't wanna cry no, I don't wanna cry no more)

(I gotta it easy)

I don't wanna try no, I don't wanna try no more

I don't wanna cry no, I don't wanna cry no more

I don't wanna try no, I don't wanna try no more

I don't wanna cry no, I don't wanna cry no more

I close my eyes to feel the music

Let me talk to 'em...


[Verse 2/Outro]

So, life is just a gamble

You know I don't mean to ramble but I'm glad that I'm a scholar

And I took in some knowledge cause its worth more than a dollar

And honestly you shouldn't even bother if you couldn't be a father like Dwayne Wade

I knew that I was something special by the 3rd grade

And fuck the cappin' its real ones that know me now

And Ryan in heaven shooting ball with Kobe now

Life is too brief to succumb to beliefs

You can be cool like Lil Nas or fly like Damez

You can croon like Frank or write like James (Baldwin)

You can report like Don and be as abstract as Kevin

Just remember, never let nobody hinder your expression
