Do Better |
| Yesterday was thunder and storming, I woke up early this morning |
| I noticed blue skies, while I was yawning |
| Grabbed a lighter, hit the marijuana and got my day going |
| On my momma, this the moment I’m a seize &blame no one |
| I pologize to my haters, how I survived is annoying |
| I’m alive, through hope and faith, practice my patience and grind |
| In due time, the fake are exposed, to even the blind |
| Meanwhile I’m minding mine, while I’m peaking through blinds |
| Intervention is divine, if we depend on religion |
| But my position over time, I could care less of it isn’t |
| Communication only works, after you talk, if you listen |
| If your speaking from privilege make sure your walking the distance |
| I’m just trying to do better, better |
| Up on my feet and Im here to stay |
| I just know there’s something better, better |
| Out there for me, just gotta find my way |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah… just gotta find my way |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah… just gotta find my way |
| Life is good, life is good life is good |
| Life can be amazing when you view it like you should |
| I believe my fellow humans will continue this path |
| All lives matter but all lives ain’t living this bad |
| I got faith in all y’all who have faith in god |
| Whether he come or not just know on earth you still play a part |
| I hope I get to right my wrongs before my time expire |
| If I don’t Just know I thought about it down to the wire |
| And I Promise |
| I’m just trying to do better, better |
| Up on my feet and Im here to stay |
| I just know there’s something better, better |
| Out there for me, just gotta find my way |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah… just gotta find my way |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah… just gotta find my way |
| Wanna leave better place for our sons and our daughters |
| Wanna revolution, but don’t wanna be a martyr |
| Wanna pick up a picket sign, run away with the protesters |
| But don’t wanna share the same fate as our ancestors |
| Gotta go to court tomorrow, and deal with this court Jester |
| They doing it for sport, we doin it for |
| Justice |
| Doing it at sunrise, doing after dark |
| Doing it for the whole, just trying to do my part |
| I’m just trying to do better, better |
| Up on my feet and Im here to stay |
| I just know there’s something better, better |
| Out there for me, just gotta find my way |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah… just gotta find my way |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah… just gotta find my way |
| In the past I was a bully now I’m tryna be best |
| Rather do some good business 'stead of tryna finesse |
| Put my people on as opposed to gettin 'em on |
| Tryna right so many wrongs that’s been written in stone |
| Can’t erase what happened all we can control is the present |
| Usin' different methods every day it’s all about ethics |
| Be more empathetic with it let my foot off the pedal |
| Ain’t lookin for no gold medal, just tryna do better |
| Nappy |
