My momma don't believe in me and
these laws wasn't made for me to succeed
so how the hell am i supposed to believe in me, believe in me
you tell me "you can see right thru me" but im turning over a new leaf
how could she ...
she not see the talent i was given
and how far i can make it
thoughts of a black man
in a time of struggle, in a time of reassurance my father always told me and my brutha "as long as i got a breathe in my body we gon be alright" as long as we got each other we gon win this fight to overcome any struggle, you can destroy any foe
but hol up why in the world am i questioning my dreams you would think i was singing luthas "impossible dream" to paint on this sphere, to follow that star and i ain't gon be serene until I'm 6 ft deep in my grave and my mommas singing in sincerity but can't completely make out the words so she'll signal for them to cut the music out and fall to her knees pleading "why my baby, WHY CAN'T IT BE ME just take me Lord"
*my spirit with her as she weeps*
but momma be thankful i got to follow my dreams. it could've been me walking to the store, playing outside, or pleading with my hands up, "officers don't shoot I'll pull my pants up" enough holes in they bodies you can see right thru them and Mr green told me how he was pulled over and how he thought it was the end for him and and how he's tired of seeing our people die i told him how he's not the only one and that theres people across the nation that are fed up so they stand up. who would've thought, my grandparents marched 50 years ago so we wouldn't have to, and as history repeats itself this is the only time we've ever come in harmony chanting "black lives matter" while were wearing black shirts that say "i cant breathe" with "hands up don't shoot" on our palms
days past and I'm in the presents of the girl of my dreams kinda how Sam was with molly and i probably looking at how flawlessly you are and how sexy you are when you don't even try and I probably owe you an apology for staring at you so deeply as if I'm undressing you with my eyes but that's not the case, I'm you're lawyer and I'm just studying your case and i can tell that not has much has changed you're still breathing in space, high off the herb of grace, and at this point i wish i would've took up some room in your breathing space and hoped everything fell in place now instead of walking all over me your walking right through me and that there is the worse case
right thru, right right thru me(x8) until fades out
