I woke up to a voice that wasn’t my own Couple feet from me, dirt, cement and limestone I heard the cries bellow from this woman dressed in black Held her tears, as we if could reconfigure this or that Not human With multiple shots, wounded The Hoody-Hoo! Is patrolling the block, deploy the units They start the shooting, they rendezvousing Only such a squad could do it And they foolish if they think that looting shit is all we doing There’s bigger issues brewing I’m just tryna join the movement I’m just tryna warn the students We at war— it’s more than music Damn—I’ve unmoved by hindrance of man Back and forth, we’ve endured all the ignorance of man Even in the smallest increment, we bigger In Sudan We gotta learn to embrace all the differences at hand I don’t know, he just sound like all the other shit I’m playin I’m just sayin, We’re all Fucked, if we sinking the sand Watching errieday withcho lying ass, hey Couple cowards sitting, hid behind a badge, hey I won’t comply, a sucka mane you know the type Reinforce my Gs, clone the test tubes for the prototype Stop you mid sentence, this unforeseen senses Plot and re-distribute, open up a Black business All my guys winning, free the people photo finish This is still a race, you either with us or against us, I Wanna fight the censorship, they silence us with shots Not, frequently enough, to stop, giving what I got Because, too many of us, too many of us rot Few have lived undetected by the demons from the top Shadow lurking, for the perfect murder Fuck with us, we gon crash the server No Glocks, just Mr. Robot Hate to say it’s true but I got evidence on you If we’re all fucked, yeah, best believe it’s fuck you

Let it go Free your mind, live your life, feed your soul Give your time see your fam keep em close Cause you never know when it could all be gone Let it go let it go let it go Let it go Make it right ain’t no time for no wrong This a ride that you not getting off You don’t ever know when it could all be gone Let it go let it go let it go I spent the last summer on tour Spent this last winter with family I ain’t been round in so long I hope I still fit in with y’all Out here trying get it Kids growing mile a minute Money dont buy experience Can’t dig in your pocket for it I wanna be there for the wrong I want to let it go but it’s gone I buried my moms last year And that won’t be healed with a song But the hope when you heal, make you strong Don’t wanna raise my kids via phone And I love my niece, my nephews Just like their a seed of my own In my life, In a speed of my own Still reciting, I speak through the poems Im so grateful, i kept my composure And do Remember the things that I told ya We can’t dwell, that’ll make it a phobia We can still conquer the culture We gon fight, that don’t mean it’s over You’re the angel that’s over my shoulder Let it go, free your mind, live your life, feed your soul Give your time see your fam keep em close Cause you never know when it could all be gone Let it go let it go let it go Let it go Make it right ain’t no time for no wrong This a ride that you not getting off You don’t ever know when it could all be gone Let it go let it go let it go I write my name in the sand That I brang to the beach Can’t see no hand in my reach And I’m standing beneath Can’t handle the beef Most nights don’t handle the peace A man or beast Take a handful of each Now I’m roaming the streets Head low Headphone full of beats Get dough, Then my face gets known But I never get low Ain’t known to police Cuz I roll with the weeks and lunges Jabs, uppercuts, and punches Dunse caps for the weak and dunses I can make ps in hundreds 10s in 1000s Men move mountains Next day same men move ounces All cash, No cheques and bounces These are my surroundings And I keep composure No luck like 3 leaf clover What you gunna do when it’s all over? What you gunna do when they don’t phone ya? What you gunna do then they don’t hold ya? What you gunna do when you can’t sleep? And your eyes go weak And you can’t stay sober? Your beds my sofa Your sons my soldier Just like I told ya Keep composure Let it go, free your mind, live your life, feed your soul Give your time see your fam keep em close Cause you never know when it could all be gone Let it go let it go let it go let it go Make it right ain’t no time for no wrong This a ride that you not getting off You don’t ever know when it could all be gone Let it go let it go let it go
