Say tell me about your life
Well it sounds like it's fiction
It's quite complicated
You won't understand the diction
Don't rub me
Like I'm friction
I'm not mean
Had to mention
Well if u want it
Here it's goes
Let me give a depiction
I'm from a place
Where people live in distain
Where kids want to be great
But suddenly their minds change
Because of pain and dismay
Tryna remain solid but that stayin silent
While watchin the violence run rampant in the streets
It's Kendric Carey
The kid that came from 219
That's up on the grind
College working rapping
With no peace of mind
Tryna speak this to the blind
To understand life is a climb
I do this for my mother Sisters Nieces Nephews and Brothers
Because we all had nothing and Still amounted to something.
Didn't have that much to eat
While still making ends meet
Mother tryin real hard
To keep us all off the street
I could speed up some more
But on my words, you would sleep
Bring a change to your mind
Like MLK with a speech
Now dream
Believe what you want to be
Don't be behind time
It's up to you to keep the lead
Put your life to the test
Take your time and invest
Into things that progress
And watch you build your assets
But I'm still young So what the hell do I know
My peers telling me Shut to my f***** pie hole
Cause all they know
Is getting lit with a 5th
Smoking a zip
Xanax with a strip
Getting real lit
I wonder why they worry about our generation
Because we doin crazy s**** then call it recreation
Then we waste our time on social media
Believe the fake news because you read Wikipedia.
Look for something
I'd assume more tedious
Blinded by world
Its always been Deceiving us
We need to make a change
It's up to us to make it work
Because 20 years from now
We'll get the handiwork
There'll be no excuses
On why boomers made us hurt
It's the ends to a beginning
It's time to soul search
But s*** I guess that's just fiction
It's Kendric Carey
