Yeah Frustrated, mind is racing As I am pacing, trying to find the strength to face this Uphill I'm facing, I've been casing out this newfound life Think I'mma make it, only thing that I have newfound strife Saying "I'm wasting away", saying "I'm nothing, but just adjacent To basic, I'm phased!". Misshapen, my view is just skewed I stay in a daze, so do I don't go overthinking the whole scenario Like "If I fail, then silence has been with people I barely know" There we go, my brothers lift me up when I need a boost Probably why I keep the Juice handy as if Lee could lose Still I wrestle with the fact that we could lose Frankly I've been feeling kind of weak for 'bout a week or two Working myself to the bone, barely to survive Something's got to change, my surroundings and my frame of mind Just look at different angles, God, see how I just change my mind? I know the tools to use but I don't use 'em, I just stay in mines I just wanna, wanna know where I'm supposed to go When I feel my back is stuck on the ropes I can't help but think of when I'm gonna go Depression is a lesson, am I, am I gonna go? I just gotta take it one, one day at a time All I have to say, I just play in rhymes That's all I have, all I have, it's all I have to give That's all I have, all I have (I just wanna make it out) Watch 'em kill a man for a little Bit of paper, get a gun, there's some blood in the street! (But they keep pulling me down!) Watch the people crowd around like they're doing him a favor Until later when the fuzz says there's nothing to see! (I just wanna make it out) In a couple months, watch 'em write it in the paper Nothing major, just an accidental ceasing-to-be! (But they keep pulling me down!) One we had enough of them covering the danger Take the wager, teaming up with our brothers in need! We could call their bluff if we playing off their nature Treating labor to the scraps that they cut from their meat We could throw some cuffs on the hands of the Mayors That don't stand for their neighbors that's just trying to eat We don't have to trust all the corporate invaders Orchard acres getting torched at a hundred degrees I don't have to love you to show you my Maker He's a stranger to the faithful of capital G I won't wear no gloves when I show you my layers I ain't ashamed of the way that I be I don't mean to rub you the wrong way, wrong way I'll take the blame for the failures of me Even on closer examination, I deserve your patience 'Cause my display is unique, decay the speech You don't got the struggles of the youth on your radar You just in the tunnel and the truth has an Abar "I don't want no trouble, I just wanna watch from afar" Headass, you would watch us double-up the graveyard And never do a thing 'cause we to you do not compare So when the fat lady sings know that you will not be spared It's a culture that we bring, that of focusing your stare And our movement glistening in the future if we care (I just wanna make it out) Watch 'em kill a man for a little Bit of paper, get a gun, there's some blood in the street! (But they keep pulling me down!) Watch the people crowd around like they're doing him a favor Until later when the fuzz says there's nothing to see! (I just wanna make it out) In a couple months, watch 'em write it in the paper Nothing major, just an accidental ceasing-to-be! (But they keep pulling me down!) One we had enough of them covering the danger Take the wager, teaming up with our brothers in need!
