Nobi - One? (feat. Shayhan) Lyrics

Guns blastin', Mama askin' what the reason
The youth fallin' like the autumn leaves off the trees and it's treason
When a little truth get to speakin'
All they care about is gettin' faded on the weekend
I said the money be deceivin',
Name brand everything
Poison for the preachin'
The youth come alive when the Devil get to speakin'
The revolution bleedin'
And all I really have is one question
Were we meant, to live this way
All I needed
Were we meant to live this way
All I really have is one question
Black on black, black mask, with a black tee
Black flag hangin' outta my jeans
What a black masterpiece
I gotta
Black gat to help me past these bad dreams
Family full of drug pushers, killers, dealers, crack fiends, catch me
On the block where they pop the rock and they flee
No pops to call the shots or teach me how life ought to be
But check it
I'm feelin' stressed, I think I'm 'bout to blow my brain out
Pockets hella stretched, I'm takin' bets on when they fade out
Hold it, my body's frozen, heart's stolen
I want so much money now that I wouldn't know how to fold it
Do you know about being hungry my dude
Walkin' up to the dinner table, hopin' you have so food
I told myself, I'd have some wealth as a child
Because I couldn't get it then, so I gotta go get it now, so it's
Jump right off the couch
And spark a blunt up in my mouth
And bag my ass another ounce
And then I'm rolling out the house
Creepin'
Down an alleyway, this is far from the valley man
Seen a man with a watch in the dark
This could end badly, K
Watch sparkled in the streetlight
As I approached, I intend to show him street life
Ran up behind him, and said,
"If you want your life you better listen
"I want your watch, your rocks, and your wallet, pay attention
And do not try no business so I do not want no hiccups"
His body went solid, started reachin' for his hip
So I went to cock the rocket, blasted off like half a clip, and then I dipped
Running
Steps loud echos of sirens surround me like hostile whispers in my mind
Who are you
Why are you here
There's no place for you in society if you reject fear
All my life my kind demise been televised
They sell the
Lies with corporate sponsors lyin' in their wings
Yet
I don't know why a caged bird sings, but I know why the lion doesn't walk so
I'm running
Even if it's away from
All I love
All I know
All I am
From
Being a man
Or a part of their plan
The harder I ran
The better I felt
Even if it wasn't myself
I was focused on
Fleeing the beast
I didn't stop to
See if they were leading me to
Something wicked this way coming
Eyes backward, but moving forward
Just keep running
