| I don’t wanna leave, but I can’t just rush
|
| I don’t wanna leave, but they say I must
|
| I don’t wanna be in the box they put me in, put me in slight disgust
|
| I don’t wanna feel, but I can’t just touch
|
| I don’t wanna give in to anxiousness
|
| Plus I was raised in The Rich, where people do snitch, better check your
|
| neighbors trust
|
| So how the fuck you live your life pretending, then try to judge me cause I
|
| don’t agree with your opinion
|
| Life is not a Twitter post, that’s why I watch you niggas close
|
| Your silly thoughts have no dominion
|
| Fuck your swag, plus you’re mad
|
| Ppl wanna pry your life & discuss your past
|
| I was right there when my cousin got popped
|
| I don’t care what you think, I don’t want your past
|
| But I gotta tell mom that I can’t get paid while I’m stuck in class
|
| Still I’m stuck on this destructive path
|
| They tell us what to wear, when to speak, who to fuck, what to eat
|
| I don’t even listen to music unless it’s something deep
|
| I don’t even fuck with these rappers cause they’re pursuing me
|
| We don’t even sing the same tune, nigga are you in key?
|
| The day Obama won I was perplexed, I had to suppress my inner strength with
|
| resolution
|
| Everybody was happy to see a black man, but that’s the day they sucked away our
|
| spirit of revolution
|
| But I ain’t here to criticize what some folks epitomize
|
| What one man sees as truth the other man considers lies
|
| What you see as a victory is a trick to me
|
| And when it falls apart, don’t expect me to sympathize
|
| In the ghetto where the niggas serve crack
|
| Talk shit cause they want their turf back
|
| These haters sleepin on me, time to go take a dirt nap
|
| And they say this is a post racial country
|
| But Try telling that to black folks that’s going hungry
|
| Try telling that to black folks that’s living comfy
|
| They don’t give a fuck about nothing
|
| But themselves
|
| What they sell is a lifestyle impossible to reach
|
| And provide a false hope for broke niggas in the streets
|
| See, I don’t succumb to fear
|
| So don’t expect to just throw me a couple crumbs & that makes up for 400 years
|
| Monkey see, monkey do, monkey bleed, nothing new
|
| If you strongly disagree, then probably the monkey is you
|
| And all you niggas do is take shots at me, but what it proves to me is really
|
| you are not happy
|
| I don’t wanna leave, but I can’t just rush
|
| I don’t wanna leave, but they say I must
|
| I don’t wanna be in the box they put me in, put me in slight disgust |
