Look I've been searching for what's missing in these rapping and poems
Meet a kid his name is Ekow if you happen to know him
And my feet have been stranded on earth and cedar and granite
But when I see the mechanics of how it's acting and flowing
And take a look I can't help but notice it's design
If you were talking to me God, just hold up any sign
Cause of all my lonely winters this the coldest of its time
I'm tryna sort these problems in the folders in my mind
But while I'm putting them away, I'm all up in the lab grinding
Tripping rolling on terrain like a Pathfinder
Things in life that ain't needed 'bout to act
But really love is nothing you could purchase, ship, or pack
And while there's breaking news, man I'll be taking clues
I wanna let myself create and just be naked too
Like Eve and Adam 'fore voice of Satan made em choose
Man that just shows you all the damage that a snake'll do
Was sitting in my school staring at these letters
My heart was on some different I want to do something better
My mama told me focus, I'm caught up I need a second
Christian, but I'm not feeling approximate to the heavens
Like God, where You at? Where You at? Where You really be?
The Bible told me 'bout a plan, a trip, a legacy
But I've been on a different planet could I beg to see
Just how my life is gon' be managed how I may achieve
Got me thinking that the world is illusions
I can see it how they talking how it's hurting the students
How your worth be dependent on what you working and doing
It's a double sided system, and we birthed right into it
They say get yourself a job, get yourself a life
Get it all together, get a house and get a wife
You'll be happy trust us you'll be happy like the rest
Stay up on the lane on the map to success
And while these people talking to me, I'm stressing all the same
Putting up a front for depression on my brain
If you told me with some lessons, impressions could've changed
And privilege and oppression wasn't sections to this game
And the fake is real, I would still hear the undertones
Cause under melanin and skin is just the muscle, bone
I'll find myself among these rapping and poems
But I probably need some help, but man I'm back and I'm gone
