Wake up you've been dreaming
Things ain't always what they seem when
Reality programmed to deceive
The food meant to nourish is the cause of the disease
Television music movies
We fiend for material things
Don't you know you worth so much more
Rise up king and go ahead and rise up queen
It's only so long you can hold them people down
Before they rise up revolution round the town
Malcolm X looking out the window with a stick
Little niggas running through the streets throwing rounds
I'm just praying that you find a way to make it out
Holding in our trauma like some rain to a cloud
Cause granny seen black bodies swinging from the trees
Now niggas getting nervous every time we see police
Smoking on this green getting high to find peace
Too much family drama relatives got beef
Lack of leadership cause the men done got weak
And If we don't evolve then this cycle gon' repeat
Breaking curses by the generation with our dedication that's the way it gotta be
That's the way it gotta
That's the way it gotta be if you wanna be free
Broski popped a perky now he got the paranoia
Pistol in his pocket petrified of extortion
Beefing with some brothers that he used to be akin
Caught them niggas lacking now the cycle never ends
Product of environment they package him for sale
In the penitentiary he couldn't make the bail
They gon' drain your energy while you inside that cell
Praying that your highest self is never gon' prevail
But can you put the blame on him if that's all he know
Memorizing chapters we know how the story go
Squeeze a lemon on an open wound and watch it burn
Squeeze a trigger even up the score the tables turn
Back in 2020 I had murder on my mind
Took the state's money went and bought a couple nines
Hit the range saw the target and I visualized
A masked killer kicking down the door to take what's mine
The media was pushing vaccine propaganda
Treating all the people like some cattle getting branded
Meanwhile the shots ringing right outside my block
Them outlines of chalk surely wasn't hopscotch
It's funny how these circumstances change your principles
A bully let a quiet kid inner villain loose
While hardworking people being used by the rich
That type of shit'll make you wanna go and hit a lick
Born in Babylon where the crops GMO
Yellow 5 red 40 top ramen bowls
The system break your spirit down time and time again
Then you reincarnate does the cycle ever end?
Awaken the ancient within you the pharaoh the negus
The one that attend to the balancing of universe and its principles
Masculine Feminine tango together like ebony ivory or like the sun and moon
Peaks and them valleys might f*ck around and crumble you
Or it might humble you back to your gratitude
While you reflect and look back on the battles that you've overcome
The struggle is beautiful
As you progress you becoming immovable
More like invincible energy bulletproof
You got that warrior's blood in your cuticles
Step like a titan let me remind you
I see the essence of God deep inside you
The portal is open for infinite treasures and manifestations of what you desire
It's time to go higher
