Ascended Breath & JayEss - October Sky Lyrics

You ever question your greatness?
Like whether you gon make it or not?
And what you do when the people you look up to tell you to settle?
Tell you they want you to win but they keep holding you down

I had to learn to believe in me
Cause they can't see the visions that I see
Say they support you but secretly
They want you to fail so they can be, right

Want you to give up your life
They tryna destroy your light
Want us to give up the fight
Prefer if we stayed out of sight
But They did the same thing to Christ
So use all your might to keep your spirit bright

Come out your shell, yeah
It'll be swell
If we just chill
The people will feel
That the energy's real

So I keep spitting poetry
Hoping they notice me
Cuz I'm rare like the lotus be
90's like jodeci
Pure dope this flow might be
Share myself openly

Spiritual armor the clothing be
Careful this high voltage potency
Got all the labels phoning me
Everybody want him but there is no cloning me

Spirit original
Manifested in physical
Situation is critical
Aye yo, Check who you listen to

Don't be a token fool
Be aware of your thoughts
Cuz more often than not
We lose our temper

I had to learn to believe in me
Cause they can't see the visions that I see
Say they support you but secretly
They want you to fail so they can be, right

Whether Summer or winter
June or November
We need more mentors
Like master splinter
Invite em out for dinner
Get the knowledge
Use it and become a winner

The system sucks
So no trust from us
We should organize and crush
Rebuild and heal with love instead of pills
They look at us as basket cases
Millions of black faces
Faceless
In the eyes of the law
Caught in the Clutches of the beast Out here in these streets
Police force us to confess
Don't make a deal they break your neck
But last time I checked
I felt real close to success
Headed for the best nothing less
Prepared for the pressure so come test
We aint pawns, and I'm saying that with my chest
They use tactics like Steven Segal
Breaking arms and crushing necks
And maybe your spine
Opposing attorneys in bed together drinking wine
