Swerve

Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, fuck all these ****, man

I'm telling you, fuck all these ****, man

What, what am I out doing here

Around all you fake asses, punk asses

****, I'm outta here

I'm just playing

Nah, I'm not playing

I take another shot, here it go again

Only this time, not to numb the pain

I'm feelin' real good, it's been a minute though

But that will never make me less cynical

I never leave my lane, but I'm well aware

That I'm tryna mask what's in disrepair

Taste of the better life is bittersweet

But, oh, Lord, I can't let it touch my inner peace

Fuck with a **** not dumbing it down for no one

Still underrated, you want me to care 'bout your emotions

No, sir, too many people vision lacking creatures

They wanna play the game when they should be up on the bleachers

Well each and every one of us is here for a reason

But you don't always end up on the spot you should be seated on

Too many lanes up in the game, shouldn't have they position

They talk a lot, but I don't listen, boy, you know I gotta

Swerve

Oh, that's just the way to go

Swerve

Yeah, that's just the way to go

Swerve

Oh, that's just the way to go

Swerve

I cannot relate to they fears, tell 'em

I ain't, I ain't, no, I ain't with it

I ain't, I ain't, no, I ain't with it

I ain't, I ain't, no, I ain't with it

Swerve

Yeah, that's just the way to go

And thanks to this everlasting monologue

I ain't never have to see your caller log

While some of us grew up to be criminals

Criminals that once were my **** though

Convinced that in the system, they can never thrive

Living on the block, tryna stay alive

And even if that shit there's partly true

For me, that just wasn't a good enough excuse

See, my mentality harsher than that reality

Became the smartest in the room, so I was outie

Walked the path that never had been paved by nobody

Before me, this yellow brick road still smelling brand new

Guess I prefer them in a different color

Sometimes I wonder what would've happened if I had followed them ****

And never had the courage to disperse

I could've been a lot more worse off, thankGod, a ****

Swerve

Oh, that's just the way to go

Swerve

Yeah, that's just the way to go

Swerve

Oh, that's just the way to go

Swerve

I cannot relate to they fears, tell 'em

I ain't, I ain't, no, I ain't with it

I ain't, I ain't, no, I ain't with it

I ain't, I ain't, no, I ain't with it

Swerve

Yeah, that's just the way to go

One time for the black man beating all the odds

In a system where they don't want us to rise

Even when we work for our diplomas

They ask around the city, now they know us, yeah

Ain't no rich white man behind us, no investors

Wasn't born with 'em, had to work for my connections

Paid all my dues, and now I'm finally reimbursed

See you sons of bitches hating 'cause it hurts

But you know I gotta

Swerve

Oh, that's just the way to go

Swerve

Yeah, that's just the way to go

Swerve

Oh, that's just the way to go

Swerve

I cannot relate to they fears, tell 'em

I ain't, I ain't, no, I ain't with it

I ain't, I ain't, no, I ain't with it

I ain't, I ain't, no, I ain't with it

Swerve

Yeah, that's just the way to go

Yes

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do, you know?

That's life, ****

So no hard feelings, alright?

But like I said

Keep on swerving
