Ya'll ready?
I don't think ya'll ready, but I'm gonna do it anyway
Let's go
In a world so cold (Aye)
It's hard to see the truth unfold (Unfold)
That's why I've been paranoid
'Cus everything's ain't glitters and gold (Aye, yea, ah)
Everybody got a motive, agendas (agendas)
And we got losers that pose as the winners (as the winners)
We living in a world so cold (so cold)
A world so cold
I can see the world change
And we living in a maze
My people should be free
But they living in a cage
Are we allowed to live?
Without being afraid
What is 40 some' years
If they still see me as a slave
Aye
We getting paid
Yeah
Minimum wage
Aye
We getting paid
Yeah, but not today
And prolly less, than somebody else
Born somewhere prettier
Fed by a silver spoon
I came from somewhere grittier
Around the drugdealers and the junkies (What else?)
The bums and the flunkies (What else?)
Where the stairways smelling funky
Same timezone
Different agendas
Every November
Gotta give 'em something to remember (Aha)
Imma King, but they see me as less (Less)
Just a pawn who they can move like it's chess (Yes)
Tryna live right, they wanna see me go left
If they tryna tell me no, I need to make it a yes
In a world so cold (So cold)
It's hard to see the truth unfold (Unfold)
That's why I've been paranoid
'Cus everything's ain't glitters and gold (Aye, yea, ah)
Everybody got a motive, agendas (agendas)
And we got losers that pose as the winners (the winners)
We living in a world so cold (so cold)
A world so cold (so cold)
(Aye, aye aye)
Aye look no I don't want your vaccine
Oh being free now what does that mean? (What is being free?)
I'm tryna make it in this rap thing
In this boat imma float look at me I am the captain
Now it's all about the virus
But what about the wars in the Middle East, Isis
Political agendas and they tryna blame a crisis
Racism disguised as a holiday for children
But what about the children?
Grown people play it like it's innocent (Innocent)
But acting like you don't see it, now that's just ignorant (Ignorant)
I'm treated differently and that's just because pigment
'Cus black is always used as evil or malificent
Why?
Tell me why the bad don't die
But they still rule countries
They throw us in jail
Then what happens? Uhm, drums please
Poverty, violence
Misplacement, misguidance
I am, a product of abidance
But no more silence
In a world so cold (So cold)
It's hard to see the truth unfold (Unfold)
That's why I've been paranoid
'Cus everything's ain't glitters and gold (No, no, ah)
Everybody got a motive, agendas (agendas)
And we got losers that pose as the winners (the winners)
We living in a world so cold (so cold)
A world so cold
In a world so cold
It's hard to see the truth unfold
That's why I've been paranoid
'Cus everything's ain't glitters and gold
Everybody got a motive, agendas
And we got losers that pose as the winners
We living in a world so cold
A world so cold
Wooh
Yeah
Uhu
Yea
