Ain't from the streets always been a gentleman
Since my christening
Came from little men
Seen some peers diverge to lives of sin
Father worked for airlines and my mother for the government
My only wish in life to show them things they couldn't envision and
I been in a trance again
Call me rubber band man
When I bring the bands in
Dancing like the Bandstand
The Lord appeared inside a dream
And said that I would have the keys
To change my family's wildest dreams into concrete reality
I stand confused
Scared to be misused I hoped that's it's the light talking not darker hues
I done took my share of losses and most def done paid my dues
I done grew up in a city where some parts resemble zoos
But I'll stand the test of time
My whole life is a divine gesture
Knew was the four letter word since my first crying fester
Third trimester
World prepped for
A second coming of whoever you think to be the greatest ever
All that glitters is not gold
How often you heard that line told
Many a man his life sold with nothing to behold but worms and fools gold
Only to realize when old
Had you been as wise as you are bold
Your end limbs, in judgment old
Your answer had not been scrolled
Fare ye well
Fare ye well
They say the real don't die they multiply
Then tell me why we got such a shortage of genuine
Where are all the legit too big to quit motifs
Honesty is getting scarcer by the minute
We more fried than pigs in a blanket
My frustration is geared towards the accusation my people facing of
Not doing enough for ourselves and the blame overwhelms so it's placed on a shelf
A two sided issue for sure
The other side ain't blameless either check history books that feature
A generational subjugation of the darker featured
400 years strong the tears last long but my tear ducts getting low so I won't be crying for long
I keep carrying on and keep soldiering on
My feet taking me home to the hill I will die on
Cuz I won't change for nothing opinions are cemented regardless of repercussions
That's for anybody and everybody with problems with it
Knew my ancestors couldn't read so I'll complete the sentence and say all the BS finished
I'll buy up all the cribs out west re-gentrify the city
Elevating
No debating
I'm only facing whatever changes the Lord places
Speculating
Hesitating
Verifying my time coming and won't get wasted
All that glitters is not gold
How often you heard that line told
Many a man his life sold with nothing to behold but worms and fools gold
Only to realize when old
Had you been as wise as you are bold
