Culture Shift

Tonight we shift the culture, dip quick, and we gone/
(Take it from the north side downtown)/
Spray painted walls on the north side, call that art/
(Trying to hit 180 on the dash and go)/
They say only the dogs come out after dark/
This is the start, right now/
Taking your part, right now/
Tonight we shift the culture, dip quick, and we gone/
(Take it from the north side downtown)/
Spray painted walls on the north side, call that art/
(Trying to hit 180 on the dash and go)/
They say only the dogs come out after dark/
This is the start, right now/
Taking your part, right…/
Look, my girl hit me and told me she got some news for me/
She said her momma is trying to leak the nudes of me/
She don’t even know I got the views for it/
And she don’t even know I got some use for it/
If respect is earned, then what you do for it?/
Live and learn, bitch, I live and learn/
Watch these bridges burn/
You deserve you a Grammy the way you act concerned/
Brainwashing your youngins with all your concerns/
Damn/
Pulling up to the Garden off tabs/
Embalming fluid drinking me, I can’t sip/
Watch as the culture shift and the high school days turn to new waves/
Watch as the old school talk, and the new school act like it’s our ways/
Your ways and it’s all good/
Your ways and it’s all good, all good/
If I changed then we all would/
If I changed then we all would, all would/
Oh don’t go, you’re the real one/
Who else could have taught me how to love and to forgive none/
Ain’t it strange, how I changed/
You the thing that keeps me tied to this plane/
I’m drawing up plans you ain’t seen in the game/
Cause my dad’s clothes fit just as good as his name/
I see your time drawing to an end/
I see me coming into what you meant/
I see the validation of my friends/
This is the way that my legend begins/
I’mma take your way so it’s all good/
I’mma take your was so it’s all good, all good/
I’mma take your way so it’s all good/
I’mma take your was so it’s all good, all good/
All good, all good/
You know that you give me the way that I think and the way that I breathe/
I cannot breathe, I cannot think, I cannot see/
What will I do when you go away from me?/
What will I do when you go away from me?/
I cannot think about anything/
I just got to focus/
On my path/
Tonight we shift the culture, dip quick, and we gone/
(Take it from the north side downtown)/
Spray painted walls on the north side, call that art/
(Trying to hit 180 on the dash and go)/
They say only the dogs come out after dark/
This is the start, right now/
Taking your part, right now/
Tonight we shift the culture, dip quick, and we gone/
(Take it from the north side downtown)/
Spray painted walls on the north side, call that art/
(Trying to hit 180 on the dash and go)/
They say only the dogs come out after dark/
This is the start, right now/
Taking your part, part…/
…part/ (interpolation from Realm of Saad)
I’ve been posted in the parking lot/
I spark a lot, my niggas hold it down/
We just speak the truth, and bend the rules/
And free the youth, and elevate the town/
I’ve been posted in the parking lot/
I spark a lot, my niggas hold it down/
We just speak the truth, and bend the rules/
To free the youth, and elevate the town/
Speak of the devil, I’ve been distant/
Changing my patterns and habits, hope it make a difference/
But I could never get away from it/
Take what I want, make a change if I can/
But I could never break away from it/
Say what you want, but you could never understand it/
I could never make a way for you/
So deep in this shit, I might just lose my life/
Better than trying to make a break for it/
But I could never get away from it/
Poison myself, day after day/
I’ve been stuck in this, losing contact with fate/
I ain’t doing so well, hope you’re doing the same/
Fall in love if you can, it’s all the same anyway/
It never change day to day, I put my heart in a blender/
And mix it up with marijuana, chug it down with some elixir/
I brought you all to the Garden, beg your pardon, I just started/
I don’t mean to be brief, I brought you all to the stars/
Gave you light and some oxygen, melanin, sparks in the dark/
I accept every action and your flaws, every part of your art/
We all die in the end, and every legend was just a legacy too far/
And if love is the sun, embrace it with every inch of your heart/
But I’mma make a way so it’s all good/
Yeah I’mma way so we all could/
Cause if changed, then we all would/
Poster child for the people who struggle/
Mama wasn’t there, daddy showed me how to hustle/
Rookie year I won it all like I’m Russell/
Not too quick to throw a bullet, but maneuver like a shark up in the water/
Got keep a level head, stuck in these streets so I’m a target/
I swear these shortys getting bolder/
Probably sparking just to knock you off the market/
I swear these shortys getting/
Probably sparking just to knock you off the market/
(Sirens)/
Yo bro, what’s up man/
Been trying to get in touch with you for a few days now/
You haven’t been to the studio/
Nobody knows where you are/
I understand you’re going through some things/
But I gotta know/
What was so special about this girl to mess you up the way it has/
Well anyway, man be easy/
Hit me back/
Yo/
