[Verse]

Spent time sittin' in it

Both times I was swimmin'

Keep still, don't budge

My heart still

My life ain't like no movie script, this shit is non-fiction

Practice non-violence that's a bold decision

Cast light my momma know the prism well

My cousin know the prison cell, can't count the lonely moments chewin' fingernails

Lookin' in my hands all these blessings I was dealt

Stone roller sinkin' in it I’ll prevail

Rollin' in the deep them niggas singin' like Adele

Birds soarin' high, what's the password when you get to the gate?

How absurd, called a nurse, flatline

Won't catch me in no hospital bed

I'm that guy, reek of death

When you walk through them stairs they chastise, reprimand you

Blood-stained sand like its Cancun

Sun rays dance on my man's roof

Six braids displaced

Was nothin' 'til I found truth

Huntin' all around you

I know you want a slice

Change, that's a buck 50, young nigga pay the price

Beans over rice can't compare to a black woman plight

But what's the mission at hand?

Mademoiselle get a kiss on the hand

Spirit nimble, roam the middle, I'm still gettin' it in

We the shit, tell a friend or two

We smoking clean herb

You niggas smoking chemicals, and it show

I told my image, I ain't scared of you

Not no more

Like Mother Mary it's a miracle

Pure as snow

And all I carry is not curable

And I hope you niggas know Navy the spiritual

Slay a goat

Walk for miles on these timid toes, ten of 'em

On my own medicine

To the dome, heaven sent

We was stole represent

All I know, search within

I was turning grief into gold

Crew tight-knit

Close like the speech that I hope

Speak from the soul

Duly noted he a poet blessings on me 'til I'm gone

Keep it goin'

Everyday

I give thanks for all I know, bow my head

Say grace we eatin' well

On my own

Throw a stone in the lake, watch it skip

Nigga pay the price

[Outro]

I give thanks for all I know, bow my head

Say grace we eatin' well

On my own

Throw a stone in the lake, watch it skip
