You can do it
Look
Tried to tell myself to rest today
Turn that feeling off and press the way
Walk a path I know I'm blessed to take
I find a track the best of eight
Only one might make the cut
My bleeding heart just throws the rest away
I wonder if they got to hear the ones I hate
Would I still sit up on this pedestal of medals
Make them cheer if I participate
Or am I just another lost wave
I know my father's shape
Just as a shadow looming over me
My momma say it's where I get this poetry
Stereotypеs of a black youth
I was hooping trynna be Kobe Bean and switch it up for hooks and flowing ovеr beats
Niggas steady hoeing me, told me I could be anything long as I got a plan for when my passion fold on me
Just coping on these 808's and hope it's weak
So I don't gotta drop and hear these same niggas start to notice me
Talking about my voice and how I sound like I need choice of black or brown
Who making noise up in their town more than I ever will
Treat me like a toy and put me down when they get time to settle down and smile fades if I don't got no buzz and get a mil'
Hoes just hit me up trying to be loud
Didn't get no play when I was quiet
I treat love more like emotion than a feeling
And that's just how I'm feeling
A fuck about my feelings
Get the fuck up out my feelings
Ain't no fucking time for feelings trying to be a leader
Been a lot of dark days running out of space for any leisure
Still ain't where I wanna be, if this is life then I don't wanna keep it
Never made a damn thing change from my life so fucking peaceful
So it's war
Self taught
