lyrics

I’m just trynna free people
This miseducation lethal
Y’all democracy deceitful
Why should my protests be peaceful
Assassinated all my heroes
Now freedom of speech illegal
Hit ysl with the Rico
I guess they no longer need em
Army’s growing stronger even
Only leaders at the meetings
I get jail calls every evening
The fallen soldiers send their greetings
We popping out at court proceedings
Every case it got a weakness
We gotta stop playing defense
I told em fuck a plea a greement
It’s a war on the horizon
I been busy organizing
Adversaries put a check on me
like I work for Verizon
If you do do it expertly
That’s just what I advise him
when it rains it storms
I rise out the water like I’m Poseidon
I will not let nothing stop me
I got god inside my body
I was raised on hugs and takis
The path I chose was lil rocky
But I stayed ten toes I got the corns to show
Just look at my feet
I was going to war with cos
when y’all was listening to takashi
When I went to school the teachers tried to tell me what I could not be
The system teaching kids how to be slaves I think that’s out of pocket
We taking student debt to the grave why did you pay for college
They taught us our success is based off grades but I just never bought it
I told em come invest get on this train but they just never caught it
When you see me step onto that stage you better start recording
You know whatever I’m about to say you gon want to absorb it
Look how we growing this movement you gon want to support it
I’m just here following orders
I’m just here opening portals
Got to be strong for my daughters
I’m in the gym every morning
My reinforcements been spawning
tribe always answer the calling
If it ain’t bout freedom don’t invite
I dont want no involvement
I know too many people who want to fight because I been evolving
I heard your music it don’t excite me you glorifying trauma
I know too many kids rather be like lil durk than be like Obama
Yall don’t be caring what you say in your verse like it’s not your problem
But the hoods you from getting worst so you moved out your momma
What if you put some of your net worth back into where you come from
Instead of spending it on cars clothes and Instagram models
What if instead of just having fame you really used your power
Ok while y’all think about that
Ima help my city bounce back
To anyone who counted us out
You should fire your accountant
I be in the trenches scouting
Well aware of my surroundings
Everyone ain’t welcomed here your gps might start rerouting
A lot of people sold they soul to make it out it was discounted
They tell you don’t get caught w/out it When you come up in public housing
I always tell em just be grounded a little faith can move a mountain
If you believe then you achieve it ain’t no other way around it
