Yeah…

They say uh… Just focus on each step

Sometimes you gotta look up…

Locksmith [Verse 1]:

I’m from the city of Richmond, better learn when you out

Niggas learn to sell crack before they learn how to count

From the era of Burners, not Burner Accounts

That’s why I push this legal dope like it’s Berner’s account

So what you rappin’ for, the Thots or the Bots?

Niggas be payin’ both until they got exposed & caught

Resent to extend more, pretendin’ they cool

Causе their labels fakin’ streams likе an indoor pool

Rappers look at Rappers, comparing stats & followers

Inside they hollow us

So they stunt just to annoy you

Haven’t hit your zenith? You need to switch your demeanor

My grass greener, that’s cause I come from a different soil

How do I verbalize the green industry plants feedin’ off fertilizer

That’s why I drop seeds for my niggas stuck in the weeds so you don’t make the same mistakes as these current liars

Everything I ever received I worked for

When you hunt your own food you naturally feel it’s worth more

This is not debatable; If I keep feeding you from my own table then all I do is enable you

Expect some variants

Record Execs love to Catfish & you niggas is Pescatarians

Present the adjustable songs that you relate to

Muddy up the streams & use a hook to bait you

Locksmith [Chorus]

Is there a Heaven where I’m headed?

Will I arrive with something that I regretted?

Tryin’ to find the piece of the peace of mins that you credit

But the voices on my shoulder never let me forget it

Will the fear make me disappear?

I still talk to my Momma cause I can feel her near

I’m near my limit, but I’mma see it through

What’s the point when there’s no one left to reach for you...

Locksmith [Verse 2]:

We have witnessed the genesis of a genocide

A whole generation eliminated & gentrified

Denigrated, discriminated & told to walk with a ginger stride that our Government has incentivized

Imagine seeing death through an infants eyes

Pulled from the rubble, they struggle to find strength to cry

You on the fence? Or feeling defensive? (Why?)

If you truly valued human life you’d be offended by

Innocent casualties being victimized

I’m not the least surprised our president has legitimized

All of this murder, death & destruction

You campaigned on change, it’s still the same corruption

You could’ve signed a ceasefire

You could’ve denounced the airstrikes on the hospital in the streets prior

We pride ourselves being peace brokers

But there’s no coincidence that region has natural resources

Treated like cattle, scramble to reach glory

How come all oppressed people have similar stories?

From South Richmond to South Africa, bridge through

It's bleak

Palestinian children deserve to live too

This is not humanity (nope); I don’t care if you Buddhist, Jewish, Muslim, or practice Christianity

Or any box they try to fit us in

Stop the death in Palestine; signed a concerned citizen

Locksmith [Chorus]

Is there a Heaven where I’m headed?

Will I arrive with something that I regretted?

Tryin’ to find the piece of the peace of mine that you credit

But the voices on my shoulder never let me forget it

Will the fear make me disappear?

I still talk to my Momma cause I can feel her near

I’m near my limit, but I’mma see it through

What’s the point when there’s no one left to reach for you...
