I see so much hatred and fights that are forced If you are my parents well when's the divorce You say you can teach me but what's there to learn You live on the land but you still choose to burn You're looking for attention I guess so am I But I won't surround myself with the same type of lie I was gonna milk it but took out my eye so now I'll MLK it guess I'll die I had a dream but it's one you are constantly dragging me from Pull me left pull me right have me skipping the middle but still feeling like I'm Malcolm X marks the spot where you take pride in division but how come Peace and love we're far from So of good intentions what has become Yo da violence is exciting but peace seems so humdrum Search for disagreements in the places there are none We want to be entertained so in comes the conundrum It seems so enticing avoiding the boredom With another accusation that your families are hoodlums So bang the drums and take their freedom with your free run at their kingdom And when you're done what's left of those you steal from Nothing they're gone and now just ghosts in your eardrum I don't want fame not for the same reasons We're all in this war we commit the same treasons What's pleasing to you causes me to unglue And what's creasing my smile doesn't entertain you Should I stay in denial or try something new Because it might be my music but I make it for you Should I stay in denial or try something new Because it might be my music but I make it for you So many hateful thoughts I won't put to paper They'd make me greater at a cost to calculate later Justified anger call it offended But what if I snapped where I'd otherwise bended Calling out names then I'd get rear-ended Put on the pulpit and asked to defend it They'll say I was fronting and racing for the cheese I thought I was hunting well I'm just chasing the breeze I'm sorry maybe I struck the wrong keys From humble and loving to swinging at knees I can't be two faced that's even I'm at odds At a struggle with the battle between my fame and my God Asking myself if I feel I've done wrong While I stand by the lyrics of a meaningless song Say I did it so I could have my true messages heard Keep telling myself that while truth is deferred I keep claiming there's a mission I have a different path a different vision So much to say I want the world to listen But people only see the things that glisten So look at my position Play the clown for intermission But it feels like something's missing Made all this bait but forgot to go fishing I don't want fame not for the same reasons We're all in this war we commit the same treasons What's pleasing to you causes me to unglue And what's creasing my smile doesn't entertain you Should I stay in denial or try something new Because it might be my music but I make it for you Should I stay in denial or try something new Because it might be my music but I make it for you This track won't rack up the views This track won't make the news This track won't go viral This track won't cause a drama wave that spirals This track won't have people clicking and sharing This track won't be seen as epic or daring This track could be big if I'd drop some names This track could be amped if I got more enraged This track could blow up if I played the right game This track is my soul alone in its cage This track is me old not wanting to change This track would unfold but I sewed it too tight This track is my wisdom and my will to fight This track is for when I am no longer here This track is to learn to use hope against fear This track will be heard by a few hundred at best So to you few I say share your love with the rest We Skeem together to change the world A small army of dreamers so let's see what unfurls I don't want fame not for the same reasons We're all in this war we commit the same treasons What's pleasing to you causes me to unglue And what's creasing my smile doesn't entertain you Should I stay in denial or try something new Because it might be my music but I make it for you Should I stay in denial or try something new Because it might be my music but I make it for you
