The sober life is for the living
So why are you looking for your heart?
The sober life is for the living
Where are you looking for your heart?
The sober life is for the living
How are you looking for your heart?
The sober life is for the living
Tell me when you find your heart
(Ooh-ahh-ah-ah)
Is it humanly possible to consider the impossibles placed on each head?
We are searching for bread making sure that our families are fed
Leading herds to the water that we can't drink from so we sip some
Thoughtlessly purposely aiming towards equality
Do you follow me?
Not to the gallows, chambers, camps or lynching
Our people still oppressed by this f*ckin' system
Re-arranging our stories so it repeats itself
Generation after generation
(They love to watch us fall)
One nation for all,
(Love to watch us fall)
Naw
Love to watch us fall
Down, down, down
Forgetting that we organically grow
From the ground, ground, ground
Call us the Motherland
The sober life is for the living
So why are you looking for your heart?
The sober life is for the living
Where are you looking for your heart?
The sober life is for the living
How are you looking for your heart?
The sober life is for the living
Tell me when you find your heart
(Ooh-ahh-ah-ah)
We all are American dreaming dreams
That dreamt a dream where the dreams of dreamers
They aren't just dreams
But rather real dreams
That actually can come true
For each and every dreamer dreaming a dream
That's dreamt in sleeps contempt
Is your mind content
With all of the contents you consciously choose to forget and exempt
Do you charge your dreams rent to vent to a dreamer like me
Dreaming dreams until they become reality
Do you follow me?
Not down the narrow sterile barrel of an officer's gun at the peaceful protest
Purposely trying to test my people with building a wall
They go hire us just to build the wall
Tall enough
Making sure we know the struggle when peeping over the bathroom stall
Look at the shit show they forget to show us
When putting on the facade of the white collar job
White picket fence and a dog named Rover
Making sure we bend over for them 13 red and white lashes
We hall asses when reaching for them 50 white bright shining stars
Scars
Show them off
They love to watch us fall
(Love to watch us fall)
Love to watch us fall
Down, down, down
Forgetting that we organically grow
From the ground, ground, ground
Call us the Motherland
The sober life is for the living
So why are you looking for your heart?
The sober life is for the living
Where are you looking for your heart?
The sober life is for the living
How are you looking for your heart?
The sober life is for the living
Tell me when you find your heart
(Ooh-ahh-ah-ah)
I have been looking for my heart as far as the eye can see
I can see why you and me clock out from that 9 to 5
Hop in the car and take that short drive 'round the corner
Buy a bottle from your local donor
Because sip after sip
The truth to our lives get easier to swallow
Hollow is this land without us
They drought us doubt us
Right out of schools into section 8 county living
I could never be forgiving
So I check in the back of Halo's ear lobe
Where he goes to plays hide and seek just to find me
And when he finds me
He blinds me with all of his hopes and dreams
But you know everythin' ain't what it seems
