Product of the block in four car garage Straight A cars, into racin' laws The one and only in a world so holy All a facade in front of a white god With nightmares and kids and cash that's gone wrong Looking good for my fall, up close for a mirage Chapter, had my whole soul in a grafter The same food everyday: rotten apples The same still faces starring right at me Gauged up a color and guilty without a gat Overweight hassel, strugglin', what happened Chest sticking out and frunked up, I had to Laws from the bree-a, bree from the boss Why weave in a cream of the crop, My top bock was only good for a shot, thru the rotten Possible I made it this far without a pop Low self esteem, I was coming for a spot Ali an my con reach all the romances Reminded of my skin shade, back y'all lynchons Allowances larger than my grand-ma's pension Some of us couldn't afford tuition Beef with my momma, drama colored trauma In a creep with no paddle, filled with the piranhas Cried from my eyes for weeks, feel incomplete, feelin' for me I'm feelin' alone in of the sweet, but I'm stuck to the wall And I'm stompin' my feet. All I heard was the music cry from outta street Father plus mother, those families look harmless Flawless, for coverin' up, what every flaw is Home. The scene of my love was in a bong Seventeen ridin' a bus, I seen 'em judge me, In an hour they would bump me and say "tjey gotta love me" Teachers hated how I speak up when they would speak up What I seen everyday, they couldn't keep up Despite of them brays, got a fire four days Even asked in a class how was life for a slave Happy with my two rough fists throughout the years Seein' one that woul get one in front, I seen them shit
Two worlds at a time, two sides of a man Breathe and lower my chin, Lord, forgive me, my skin is my sin Two tears at a time, two words and I Breathe and lower my chin, Lord, forgive me, my skin is my sin
I seen a man cry and I seen a man die And do both at the same damn time Everything pointless, unless it's the grindin' Lessons of the wess, where the sun don't shine Nigga no armor, everybody's a goner Sittin' at a dutch with a cure (???) Couldn't lose the American dream and got a job One half mockin' and the other half lovin' A bag full o'books when the other kidsn wasn't, No future done fuck with, plans for a budget A circle full of poverty, fly for the public Billy Bob Who wouldn't move no budget Meanwhile, in school being broke was a subject Sharp as a slicing knife, I pay the price My all wanna get me, feelin' I'm like Christ Couldn't fit anywhere, nor here, nor there Scared to reveal every lair Grans work hard tryna put me in a pair A new heir's got jealousy stares Greetings of the reaper, die scheemes' a heater Inspired me to try to ignore every teach To the wall, with a loose loose layer It's either I'm a sellout or tryna put yayo
Two worlds at a time, two sides of a man Breathe and lower my chin, Lord, forgive me, my skin is my sin Two tears at a time, two words and I Breathe and lower my chin, Lord, forgive me, my skin is my sin
