[Intro]

Yeah


[Verse 1]

What’s the price for a Black man life?

If the answer’s one sentence then my raps can twice

Treat me like a poor test grade, like I’m not nice

If it ain’t my loved ones, do I care? Not quite

‘‘Damn, how can you say that?’’ Go ahead, go replay that

You only get one shot, can’t retake that

They disperse when I eat with the mic, break fast

Coming crazy, I’m at your head, wave caps

Hear the reasons, real shit what I’m preaching

Started from the hardword, pause, I’m talking bleachers

They don’t know how I feel, I’ll make ‘em hear me in speakers

Some fiend to be down, they playing Follow the Leader

I want my people to be better

Be a capital of your first case, starting with your first letter

Never try to copy cats, print for the pleasure

Make a change for yourself, you’re the gold, you’re the treasure

Put me to the test, I‘ll never sell my soul

They comparing me to boxes but I will not fold

Thought I’d stay down forever but I acceled to my role

Accelerated, my moves premeditated, I’ll excel at my goal

While niggas waste time hating, my mind was elevated

My spot, they wanna claim it

I felt underestimated, till I was excavated

Now they jackin’ we related

I’m feeling like Dave East ‘cause nigga’s tryna get acquainted

Many never make it out the slums

I spit for their pain, as I’m one with the drums

Decimating all the negativity to crumbs

Better stand for yourself, be in control of your thumbs

Some real ones fell to guns, who’ll be last to leave?

Word to the son I ain’t have yet we’ll get past the breeze

I’m on go time to grow, can you pass the peas?

Your life becomes a masterpiece once you master piece, listen


[Verse 2]

Dreams, what a beautiful inception

Where a nigga focus less on giving good first impression

When you recognize your power to control every dimension

Then you wake up, and wanna bring to life that same invention

But listen, instead of tryna be somethin’ you not

Show and telling, tryna get in every single thot

I want you learn to love, everything you got

Once you in tune with yourself, you the focus in the plot

Ill with it, for real, I’m staying on my heels to help my family with meals

Lil’ nigga that’s trill that trill niggas could feel

Give a fuck how they feel, real, I can never conceal

And I stay by the grill, a nigga cooking to heal

Living how no others lived it

I’m working to spit, how no others will deliver

So comparing’s cool and all, but a nigga beg to differ

I’m context clues, my music brings you bigger pictures

So don’t forget me, I hope the bars are incentives

Kicked back to relax, now I’m getting real reflective

Reminiscing all the loved ones I lost for me to get here

Probably split paths ‘cause they ain’t see from my perspective

I remember all the strain and pain from breaking my leg

But no amount of hurt is gonna make me lose my brain

I know I’ll reign supreme through the thunder and the rain

That’s on my mind that I shine from inside, F a chain

Mothers still struggling, ignorant still rumbling

Wanna-be’s out hustling, pieces is looking puzzling

Weight on shoulders I’m juggling, took bumps, I’m fumbling

I’m glad I never stumbled, man, all this made me a humble kid

Used to always be blue till I discovered the clues

You’ll get views from the tunes, or highlights on the news

Strayed away from media to focus on dropping jewels

I got infinite fuel, and that’s from learning to lose
