L'ONE - DarkSide Lyrics

World got me livin on the dark side
It's dark skin dark eyes
I fight for freedom but my problems multiply
On the darkside
It's dark skin dark eyes
I fight for freedom but my problems multiply
I fight for freedom but my problems multiply
I fight for freedom but my problems

In my hearts it's all black i was raised to be a good man instead
Here I stand, a shadow of my self, no wealth, and in bad health
Talking bout my mental state I may need help

Cept that sucks for a nigga like me
See this living aint free least I get to smoke trees, least I get to smoke trees?
Better than to hang from the same, aint no Damn game shoulda chose to bang
Im estranged from the black pain
Shit I need some cain to go numb from my own pain
Realized they the same on this plane cause human's life pain

Im at odds, God can you make it so the f*cking pain will stop!
God! Can you make it so my f*cking heart will pop in my chest
They replied boi you don't understand how blessed yes I said blessed that is it you are

So imma go hard! All for the power, min after min, hour after hour
Ill eviscerate forever every mothaf*cking coward
Have em look up to my pretty face from a bed of flowers mothaf*cka
Spitting Venom, no ether, I aint got the Nos different kinda creature
The type to hear she gotta man and not believe words
And now my actions got me saddled underneath her
Im climbing deeper, maybe Ima keep her

Maybe I keep sane, from the love of pretty pussy, drink and some mary jane
Sounding like an addict, but it's habit does that seem strange
Rearrange derangement in the basement just to keep tame, no shame

Don't blame me for tryna live like OGs, image in my mind seen on screen of tvs
Worlds all f*cked a nigga trying to survive, thrive by any means, so he living on the dark side

Living on the dark side
Dark skin dark eyes
On the Dark side
Living on the dark side
Dark skin dark eyes
On the Dark side
By whatever means Im doin me

I think I want war
Why, cause im bored
Ideas of destruction
Just to settle all the scores
Imaginary lines
We dont really need more
Guess it's for the people
Fake down to their core

They need to hear the sound of a body go thud
God f*ck a rainbow honestly we need a flood
People don't care till their eyes catch blood
Mean mug
Do they get me
No they only see a thug

No love for the black skinned clan
I don't understand since we all human
Every gene derived from a black woman
Wanna piece of the culture don't see cuffs on hands

F*ck it man, it's not like anybody really cares
Too scared, even unaware of rights that they bare
At this point it's childish to wish the world to be fair
Fair skin and straight hair got the globe in a snare

But not me, race is a lie, currency a game your country plays till you die
Media modifying the makings of your mind
But I ain't here to judge I got the drugs making mine
Hard times, wanna die, but Im programmed to survive

So im alive, but I aint really living, dead man walking
Nah just kidding, scour the world in search of what it is im missing
But let me quit my bitchin move on to the mission
World domination and Im open to enlistment
Do understand the current leaders won't permit this
Their peace is a lie based on socializing pigment
Passion in my soul's the only thing that I know
Whatever it takes to break the cyclic status quo
I know some hear me calling, I know some down to ride, don't hide

Come and join me on the dark side
Whatever skin or color eyes
We fight together it's the enemy's demise
On the dark side
Break your chains free your mind
We fight together and our enemy will die
