Ease My Mind

I stepped on the scale, half my mind twirl

Then realize I was carryin' the weight of the world

Who else would build a bird and give the shirt on they back?

Rejuvenate the streets and rehabilitate rap

You see these minds are strapped and I can see where they at

Livin' in these fantasies that's about to collapse

I see a breach in they heart when I reachin' they heart

And grab 'em before more ignorance starts

To kill our communities drain our true abilities

Spring us, the pictures that seem, most of y'all feeling me

The rest of you not 'cause you're missing the point

Tryin' to blow up the spot and build a slot of a new wave sleeve

It's a shame how our people behave

Got our roots turnin' over in graves

Gotta walk on the path that they pave

I'm not the first or the last of the braves

To break chains

We're gonna think about it, ah

I want to get free

And ease my mind

But I just can't get away

And come to think about it, I

I want to get free

And ease my mind

But we gotta find a better way

What up, kin folk

How you been though?

Seem like the world goin' all up in smoke

I can't complain, I maintain

I'm makin' moves, I gotta get paid

Know what I'm talkin' 'bout?

I'm 'bout to get your boys rowdy

I got it together, now I'm high, so don't doubt it

Shut down all the clowns when I shout it

Shout, shout, let it all out

It's the FAT, bitch, ask about it

Know what I'm sayin'?

'Cause I be mashing

Tre be mashing

Ciera singin' on the hook with that passion like

Yeah

You know sometimes when you're surrounded around

A lotta haters, lotta negative

Gotta get away from the negativity

Can't nobody let, let nobody

Stomp your light out

Stomp your shine

Take away your beauty

Well come to think about it, I

I want to get free

And ease my mind

But I just can't get away

And come to think about it, I

I want to get free

And ease my mind

But we gotta find a better way

I have no clue of what you go through

I don't know how you do what you do

But you must been blessed

With the strike to deal with the stress

The way you separate yourself from the rest is so fresh

And yes, you give 'em all somethin' to talk about

They all need somethin' to talk about

Might as well be you

But people wanna see what you all about

And see if you gon' give it your all amount

That's all that counts

I wonder how it feels to be you

I wonder how it feels to be you

I wonder how it feels to be you

I wonder how it feels to be you

I wonder, I wonder how it feels

Well come to think about it, I

I want to get free

And ease my mind

But I just can't get away

And come to think about it, I

I want to get free

And ease my mind

But we gotta find a better way

Well come to think about it, I

I want to get free

And ease my mind

But I just can't get away

And come to think about it, I

I want to get free

And ease my mind

But we gotta find a better way

Jazz

What more can I say, man?

A lot of our music, all of our early stuff

All the stuff we doin' now as a matter of fact came from jazz

Wess Montgomery

Cal Jada

My Coltrain

It's just dope, man, 'cause now

In the new and improved 2008 version

We got artists that come over here to get love

Just like the jazz cast did back in the day

It's just, it's just how it is, man

I get inspired

I get inspired by all of that, man

All the ones that came before us

That's what allows us to do what we do today

So for all of those that's passed away

I say, I say

I say, I say

I say, I say
