Song 1
They say I don't mix that great, so I keep grinding
That's hours after hours, 10,000 - I got my time in
Pressure built ya boy up, you looking at a diamond
Story after story, no more-keepin quiet
Black ppl scream change, but the streets stay violent
And abuse is everywhere, but we're forced to stay silent
White kids talking in school like "homie I'll kill you"
Then we question when they do (Chan I don't think they hear you!)
I spit faccs on my Kinko's, standing up on 10 toes
Dad said preach, so welcome to my Ted Show
Momma hit the Elvis-straight left the building
But that ok momma, just wanna say you're forgiven
Never been known to play games, but I've always loved Jesus
Over the years I tried to chill out, but that ain't always easy
And when I say "live or die" I feel the ghost in the room
Like the creepy feeling someone's talking to you (Got 2 choices)
Will you live or die
Will you make the sacrifice
Stand tall when the tide is high
Then come come through on the other side
Modern MLK, love everybody-but i invoke change
See I rap, and Love God-yea, they look at me strange
NF said he wears his garbage, that's where I found my food
So when I say I lost it all, I hear "yea me too!"
Cuz the way I write is different, 1 camera but different lenses
See different angles of the same picture, from in the trenches
See life throws obstacles, I parkour like it's a hurdle
What you know about laying on benches, no mentos commercial
I spit so deep, like you on the couch, and this is Get Out
See when tea-time starts, you already know what this is about
I've seen so many things, and my minds been manipulated
Can't go 5min before I'm slippin in conversations,
Now I'm blatant, with the Sword of the Lord, to battle Satan
Got me feeling like I'm bout to do battle, and this the Matrix
He shooting arrows, but I'm leaning and rocking
Can't nobody stop me, call me rocky
Will i live or die
Will i make the sacrifice
Stand tall when the tide is high
Then come come through on the other side
