I got a lot of people doubting thinking that I must be clowning That that peaceful boy don't need more joy he's all good in the county Well then this shit here's the outing plot thickens skies clouding Can't be settling for better springs with climate change mounting Not a shot that I'm allowing all this skill with how I'm sounding To be still and start drowsing cause I'm caught up in accounting See the world gave me money; start a family buy some housing Make 2 little children plants roots get to grounding Start a good little business success astounding More money for my kids and for endowing No ball, no rap, that happens life's abounding Didn't get it for yourself but your kid could be Yao Ming That's not how I'm rebounding, I'm still in the paint and crowding Out whoever wants a future for me so unarousing I do love my world and the white folks around me But I can't settle nah I'm here to break down boundaries But Tipper why you gotta just go and make the whole thing racial? I see that you got a flow I think that's cool I think it's glacial But with language that you're using you're divisive even hateful And how are you taking moral high ground when I know you love giving facials F*ck, it's true, I do I love to come, what's new Love highs, dream blue No lies, all truth I got flaws, consume Missed calls, miss you When I'm wrong, I'll move But I want yours on my face too it's cool if you do not share what I'm saying We all got a process I'm taking and weighing The objects and subjects that's all interlaid in My world my future my internal state and I'm honest on it, open to changing I'm pushing my limits to become less stationed I'm mixing up talent, inebriation Values, balance, high expectations And making a sound that's way up on elation Resounding vibrations No challenge unfaced it's Boundless we made it, And you can doubt if you want to It really don't matter, really going through A bonefide rapper what you gon do? That boy(a) Ben/been a factor in my prime too Might move a little faster, might surprise you Yea I might hit the shatter, yea the high smooth Yea I might bring the swagger, yea I might fly through See I connect the patterns and keep my mind true While your thoughts all scattered down the bayous This a new chapter / With no choreographer Just me and myself / and my haiku Oh you think that you're so clever but you ain't answer my questions I know your ancestors left a world of transgressions It's time you settle down, and think on what you're representing Cause it really ain't so simple how you translate your intentions Ain't shit simple and I appreciate you testing me We got a history that ain't gentle, these times we've got to change desperately It could be subtler I know that but where we're all at with our equity World needs someone to bring the flow back so ima own that complexity
