Been in this place for so long it's like
You get trapped
Like you in a trap
Running circles going round and round
I just came for the check I'm running Nike town
And all these niggas imitations, got that hypebeast sound
And all my niggas smoking good, went from grams to pounds
And when we make it I'm like oscar with the proudest smile
Niggas wanna shoot me down
Take that mask off you niggas look like IT the Clown
Pops told me rise above, snakes live on the ground
And when you shooting shots they blocking like the unibrow
I'm staying patient, but this waiting got me feeling naked
Cause I know some niggas who patience turned into complacence
But I just put my faith In god, he hold me down like basements
From the dirty south, the home of soul food and racist
See the looks upon they faces, they stare in amazement
Circumstances I was facing turn men into babies
Take peek inside my mind you'd prolly think I'm crazy
Some shit that make you change the station what I'm watching daily
I been spending time trynna find my way around
But when I get in the car it don't move
I been spending time trynna find my way up out
But when I step on the ladder it broke
Niggas be tweaking, thinking that we beefing
I just seen you last weekend, not jeepers but you was creeping
If ya bullets heat seeking, then Gbo would've been sleeping
This messiah that's speaking, fume the fire by breathing
We need to come together this ain't the time for competing
Tell more truth than the deacon, I hope you learn from my teachings
Police sirens be screetching, watch the news in the evening
They disgracing our race, but they never gave us a reason
Little babies be screaming, homeless before they teething
Put them rocks on the block to get niggas high as the cealing
Politicians misleading, do anything for the seating
All we want is some healing, I'm taking all the proceedings
That 20k you can keep it, I need executive meetings
Cheddar won't keep me cheesing, but it keep my people eating
Taking steps while they leaping, viscous cycles repeating
Ya help I'll never be needing, the playing field isn't even
Come to me for the keys, I'll tell you all of my secrets
I been spending time trynna find my way around
But when i get in the car it don't move
I been spending time trynna find my way up out
But when I step on the ladder it broke
