Roll off Me |
Yeah, back in effect, let’s go |
Ahem, aiyyo, e’rybody goes through feelin like |
The walls is closin in on you and you just stress the hell out (yeah they do) |
And you feel like you gon' explode, youknow’msayin? |
(uh-huh) |
This right here is for, all y’all to know that |
I know what y’all goin through man (yeah, yeah) |
I feel it myself (yeah, yeah I do) |
I could relate, yeah turn this one up |
Sometimes life make you wanna attack and go off G |
You wanna step back and I let it roll off me |
Brooklyn, New York B, ain’t nothin soft G |
Yeah I get stressed but I let it roll off me |
Flirtin with the fame but I let it roll off me |
They love it when I’m losin but I let it roll off me |
Dirt on my name but I let it roll off me |
Always keep it movin and I let it roll off me |
Do it for my niggas with letters, let’s set it off B |
Cops don’t protect us, protestors just get ignored B |
Played out like musical theater with best support |
The investors and bankers havin sex in expensive orgies |
I’m rappin on the corners like Abbey, Abdul and Common |
Born when they was robbin the grave at Tutankhamun |
Way before Bush the USA been bombin |
Cause whether ratchets or needles know the shootin ain’t stoppin |
Niggas lootin, we ain’t coppin a thing |
And if I’m locked in the bing, a nigga not gonna sing |
I got a lot of things on my mind, dollar signs, life on the line |
What I write’s so right for the time |
The revelation like sight for the blind like when God cypher divine |
Hand you lessons; |
or when you in the church havin confession |
Or when you kneelin on the pew, catchin the Holy Ghost |
Or the cult, so fanatic they think suicide’s the only hope (no) |
They used to ask you «Who ya master?» |
Now they ask you «Who your pastor?» |
It’s your allegiance that they truly after |
They used to ask you «Who ya master?» |
Now they ask you «Who your pastor?» |
It’s your allegiance that they truly after |
That make you wanna go off B |
But I step back and I let it roll off me |
Brooklyn, New York B, ain’t nothin soft G |
Yeah I get stressed but I let it roll off me |
Talk the talk but to walk the walk is costly |
Niggas got on they +Game+ face like Black Wall Street |
Every single move I make is ballsy |
Cause the shit it used to be a, silent movie now it’s a talky |
The Feds cheesin like Milwaukee when shit is Brew-in |
When these niggas stage a coup for the president I’m a shoo-in |
But, ain’t no political aspirations I’m persuin |
I hate to ruin your dream but music is what I’m doin |
I’ve touched more people in a verse than you do in 20 speeches |
Whether state’s blue like the water or redder than white people on sunny beaches |
Sometimes I don’t be understandin it |
They looked at me and said that’s why you the perfect candidate |
Standin at the pulpit with a full clip |
What I say real talk, turn around and walk away with your bullshit |
I’m like breed, yo I ain’t to be fucked with |
Only write the realest, can’t lie to the public |
The sharp wick cut quick, killin 'em softly |
They try to take me there but you could never force me |
Brooklyn, New York B, ain’t nothin soft G |
Yeah I get stressed but I let it roll off me |
Flirtin with the fame but I let it roll off me |
They love it when I’m losin but I let it roll off me |
Dirt on my name but I let it roll off me |
Always keep it movin and I let it roll off me |
