Lyrics
Looking out a window from the inside
Of my head what I had in mind
Is it recess or recession
bit worried, cause I ain't stressing
One side saying we gone hit an incline
One side saying we are in the end time
In the middle of the match where I been fine
I ain't confined, I was left in
If it's out of my control I ain't stressing
Only cutting from the cloth I was dressed in
Well groomed in a room full of best men
Grey suits tryna train me not to question
On average I'm the exception
Run the math when it's anything less than
If the path get blocked even one time
No conspiracy can tell me what it meant then
So what's next then
I'ma keeping it moving I got no choice
Representing for the weak of us with no voice
Rich enough to be protected from who's elected
Black enough to be respected but still messed with
Pulled over in a Buick or a Rolls Royce
5'9" or 6´3" they gone feel threatened
Your fragility is hidden under your weapon
You ain't hard, you just capping 'cuz you so moist
More than one thing tryna kill me (YEAH)
More than one name tryna bill me (YEAH)
Keep my hands clean
Less we're talking 'bout riches
That's the only thing that's filthy (YEAH)
Nothing left in this life left untainted
Up charge for the pure so we cut raw
Here's an app and some people you can complain with
Rest assure
I'm the pro's, I'm the con's
I'm the hope and the harm
I'm relief or belief
Here to leave you in a storm
Throw a raft, throw a leash
What you need is what you form
Round your neck, on your arm
Just keep calm
Rest assure it's the cure
Everybody got a way of coping
Talk about it, have a sip, smoke it
You can tell it's serious when I be down playing
Most scared when I be joking
Looking for a fix and I'm hoping
Both knees on the ground praying
Would I even hear it when spoken
Fear more familiar than faith is
I'ma stop looking for an answer
Search inside how to make it
Media delivering a breakdown
When it break down I can take it
Tell me something that I want to hear
Like hearing you found a new replacement
Babylon lying off top
Ima take it back to the basement
I could lose it all found laying in a gutter
Get it all back that's word to my mother
Comfy in the county where it's really all black
Chilly in the city where it's getting off color
Never made it rain I could save a long rack
On a rainy day I know how to take cover
Let it all flood i'ma swim it on back
I ain't made of iron, I'm just braver than the others
Life don't love you but it love to come test
But if you love life you can't get the wrong number
If you go under learn to take a long breath
Wait it on out, come back with a flex
Looking for a hand all I ever got was steps
Walked on once now I walk on quest
I could walk on water, I could on set
My drip game only thing wet
I'm the pro's, I'm the con's
I'm the hope and the harm
I'm relief or belief
Here to leave you in a storm
Throw a raft, throw a leash
What you need is what you form
Round your neck, on your arm
Just keep calm
Rest assure it's the cure
