Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yee
[Verse 1]
Enoch, your father's just detoxed, my callin' is right on time
Transformation, I must had a thousand lives and like three thousand wives
You should know that I'm slightly off, fighting off demons that been outside
Better known as myself, I'm a demigod
Every thought is creative, sometimes I'm afraid of my open mind
[Chorus]
Shit on my mind and it's heavy
Tell you in pieces 'cause it's way too heavy
My diamonds, the choker is heavy
More life to give on demand, are you ready?
Who keep 'em honest like us?
Who in alignment like us?
Who gotta heal 'em all? Us (Us)
When there's no one to call
[Bridge]
Don't need no conversation
It ain't about the business, shut the door now
Bitch, it's a celebration
And if this shit ain't bussin', what's it for now?
[Bridge]
Steppin' out when the weight lifts
Floatin' on 'em
Floatin' on 'em
Floatin' on 'em
Steppin' out when the weight lifts
Floatin' on 'em
Floatin' on 'em
I'm floatin' on 'em
[Verse 2]
Uzi, your father's in deep meditation, my spirit's awake and my brain is asleep
I got a new temperature, sharpening multiple swords in the faith I believe
I think about Robert Kelly
If he wasn't molested, I wonder if life would fail him
I wonder if Oprah found closure
The way that she postered the hurt that a women carries
My mother abused young
Like all of the mothers back where we from
SSI bury family members
At the repass, they servin' Popeyes chicken
Whatchu know about Black trauma?
F&N's, kickin' back is another genre
Tyler Perry, the face of a thousand rappers
Using violence to cover what really happened
I know somebody's listening
Past life regressions to know my conditions is based off experience
Comma for comma, my habits insensitive
Watchin' my cousin struggle with addiction
Then watching her first born make a million
And both of them off the grid for forgiveness
I'm sacrificing myself to start the healing, and
[Chorus]
Shit on my mind and it's heavy
Tell you in pieces 'cause its way too heavy
My diamonds, the choker is heavy
More life to give on demand, are you ready?
Who keep 'em honest like us?
Who in alignment like us?
Who gotta heal 'em all? Us (Us)
When there's no one to call us (Us)
[Outro]
Say hydrate, it's time to heal
Safe, you're frustrated, I could feel
Huddle up, tie the flag
Call the troops, holla back
Huddle up, tie the flag
Call the troops, holla back
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
