Outside |
| I was also gonna ask about your fear as an individual |
| You know, this is plenty of people, feel a sense of security around you and |
| kinda lean on you |
| You ever feel like a certain amount of pressure from that? |
| Do you ever get afraid? |
| Of course I do |
| I mean everybody gets afraid sometimes |
| What possibly could make you afraid? |
| What are you afraid of? |
| (afraid of, afraid of) |
| (I'm afraid, I’m afraid) |
| (Sometimes I’m even afraid to admit.) |
| I’m afraid, I’m afraid of the weight of my problems |
| Haters working overtime, 8 or 9 jobs worth |
| All these wanted ski masks niggas |
| Old basketball shorts under jean ass niggas needa know |
| I’m a product of a dead poet riding at it’s low |
| Equals Mia Angelo, my emphatic flow can rise the status quo |
| Lying on the panic floor |
| Addict at it’s best |
| Eradicated from the fabricated |
| Afraid at the thought of releasing music that’s indicative of where I’m at in |
| life |
| Will they like? |
| Will they hate? |
| The better question is if they hate it is you down to pay the price? |
| I’ll look you right in your eyes and say you mother fuckin' right |
| Don’t bother me with adversity, I conquered more ground than King Kong could |
| All I think about these days is Mom good |
| 'Cause she diabetic |
| My daddy just had a cancer scare |
| And do he still work at the post office? |
| The answer’s yeah |
| I’m introverted, knowing that it’s not about Oz |
| Bigger problems outside |
| There’s a war going on outside |
| That no man is safe from |
| You see you can smile but that won’t change the color of your skin |
| But I’m the sinner |
| Yet you kick me, punch me, say don’t trust me |
| Shoot me down like I’m up to something |
| Fuck with me and say I’ve deceived you |
| But how’s that legal? |
| Am I that evil? |
| Why do you hate me? |
| I’m afraid of you going to college and not acknowledging I’m your father 'cause |
| you not proud enough |
| But I fought hard to make sure you never see certain things I’m a product of |
| It’s easy to confuse being a father with being a provider |
| But all we got is us and I’m afraid to lose you |
| You the coolest kid I ever saw |
| She did a good job with you |
| Sometimes I hesitate to take credit for raising you too |
| 'Cause all I did was discipline |
| I never taught you to ride a bike but we still a lot alike |
| And you making music now? |
| I wonder what made you wanna give this a spin |
| You know what I’m about to say next, right? |
| I’m afraid of you drinkin' |
| Though I never taught you to swim, I’m afraid of you sinkin' |
| I know I taught you to fight, you ain’t in condition to win this |
| You wired different |
| You just ain’t the nigga you friends is, it’s scientific |
| Not my opinion so you know you genetically predisposed to more than just eating |
| soul food |
| So I’m afraid of you to try to risk it |
| You in a gene pool with a lot of sick fish |
| And I’m the sickest of them all |
| Alcoholics stop from the symptoms of withdrawal |
| Look out the window, tell me what you see |
| Police shootin' brothers the color of you and me |
| And they actin' like they hate us so you may just wanna love yourself enough to |
| compensate it |
| If I can say this, say this one thing, this one thing non-related |
| You were never, ever, ever, better than me in basketball |
| Yeah right, sure… |
