I've been searching for purpose since the day I was born And this is the purpose god has given me They say if you got lemons you make lemonade Well... I'm making lemonade I'm a modern day prophet Fightin' against the nonsense So fuckin' conscious I'm a product of the toxins I'm a modern day prophet Tired of the nonsense They wanna see me drop Throw everything you got, I ain't ever gonna stop I feel like a prophet with the life I've been given I spread my knowledge through the words that I have written I got a purpose, a mission to get rid of the bullshit They want to hypnotize me but I always resist I've been nailed to the cross, stripped of everything that's mine All because I dare defy the norms that keep people blind But that won't stop me from doin' what I'm supposed to do You can assassinate me and my words will still ring through You can test my faith, I'll never lose it I'm already a pariah cause I act so foolish Even if you bring me down, I'll get right up I'll never believe your lies so just shut the f*ck up I may not be Malcom X or MLK I may not be Kapernick but I know I'm brave I ain't a sellout or a shrill, I'm motherfuckin' real And this ain't motherfuckin' spiel, you already know the deal I'm a modern day prophet Fightin' against the nonsense So fuckin' conscious I'm a product of the toxins I'm a modern day prophet Tired of the nonsense They wanna see me drop Throw everything you got, I ain't ever gonna stop I stand for peace and unity amongst everybody No fuckin' agendas, f*ck the illuminati And f*ck the industry for pushin' gangsta shit on everyone White kids trynna be black?, that shit is dumb I don't know who to blame for this modern day tragedy Is it the devil or ourselves, I can't even believe That there's blood on the streets, and they don't do nothin' When there's a riot goin' on, all the people be frontin' They say they're against the abuse but it still goes on They say they're against the hatred but it still goes strong There's less rights compared to say ten or twenty years ago Can't even protest, I'd get arrested by the popo I've had people believe police reports over me I've been treated differently cause my views just speak For themselves, this world is hell, I've gotta shine the light I got this knowledge so I'm ready for the fight Bring it on And I ain't afraid of you motherfuckers Bring your pitchforks and torches, I don't care I know I'm going to die, I ain't scared Is this the price I pay for trying to make a better world? At least I care
