Wings

Check it

I feel like I been behind damn near all my life

Stuck up in the grind, got no time to duck and jive

Government full o' lies, secretly seekin' out the minds

They don't want us to strive, they need us towin' the lines

So now we searchin' for a high without a word from the wise

Survivor since they came and tried to murder my tribe

A juvenile until I found a way to murder the mind

I could weight a harness on my darkness and turn it to light

No doubt, I know we bound to make it out alive

And if you doubtin' what you doin', you ain't doin' fine

Best to put that bullshit aside if you wanna do this right

And if you don't, then you don't want it like the other guy

Usin' his time tryin' to elevate to a suit and tie

Ain't no limit if you lift your chin up to the sky

This ain't right, we're losin' lives

Losin' the fight up against our own minds, commitin' suicide

The Devil tryna kill us, we tryin' to survive

Be careful of the people 'round you, they might leave you dry

Them wanna come inside, I'm lookin' for a reason why

Like, how you ain't gon' put in work and still want a piece of the pie?

We know domestic violence, know the sound of silence

It's got our mothers beat and our babies cryin'

They tried the size of the shoe but they ain't livin' in 'em

So why the fuck would I listen in to their criticism?

Been on a mission 'cause we've been closed off

And I think it's 'bout time that they gave us a shot

All I really want is freedom at whatever the cost

To show these capitalist dummies that the lower class is reachin' the top

Don't go out a lot, but I'ma give till I flop

Still an employee, but your boy been a boss

They recruit you, so the youth be steady, eyein' 'em off

But I possess what you can't buy in a shop

Type o' shit that make your life better off

We all human, so why be a dog?

If you knew who you were, then you wouldn't try and be what you're not

And if you want beef, then we don't need police and the coppers

I got my people on call, ready to heat it up proper, I got the

Guts and balls to say what needs to be heard

I ain't preachin' these words, man, I'm just teachin' them worth

'Cause too many men are leavin' this Earth

Too early, leavin' their sister with her knees in the dirt

And it hurt to see my people where we at

We talkin', barely actin' a point

And the fact is, I barely even rap this honest

Always rappin' 'bout myself in a competition

Of shittin' on everybody else, but

I had enough o' that, so, shout out to all my Gs

Gettin' it in, bringin' that heat, makin' banger tracks

I got love for ya, I ain't mad at ya

I hope your family good and you get mad status

And to my fam and my fans in my community

I hope you truly see, this is about you and me

Depression is a sickness, I do we're tryin' to cure a disease

So tell these labels, keep their fame and their jewelry

Little homie, quit playin' wit' that foolery

Don't ever let that grog hold you down

'Cause you a king, and see, this world owes you a crown

And if you find it hard, just know, I'll be around for now

But in the times that I'm not, give it all you got

And when a elder speaks, listen and watch

'Cause if you don't, somebody else'll be in your spot

And you'll be sittin' on the side-line, wishin' you wasn't
