They kill my partner's cousin
In the news he look just like him
Make me see it's not a personal battle
They attacking our melanin
Nigga we as people
We bare the shepherd's skin
That's why they following all our trends
We the religion
What the schools is teaching need a revision
But I was busy f*cking under the bleachers
And dodging detention, so what if I'm different?
I f*ck with the fact that I'm black and artistic
F*ck with the fact that I'm ducking your boxes
And I'll never end up catching myself in them
Only time is when it's pine
And I'll be fresh as f*ck when it's my time
Bury me with knappy hair and a bottle of wine
And you know what? If I die early, then I'm right on time
Cause I'll have said it all by 25
Don't do me like they did Jimmy
I don't think I just know
No detours, I just go
Can't overanalyze these rough roads
These dreams either turn to dust or explode
Nuketown, I'm overexposed
Internal particles
Water vapor, ambition gon' flow
Altitude causing this blood on my nose
Drinking some wine on the ivory coast
The hustling engrained in their DNA code
Making these moves and I'm counting these 0's
I'm with my fam and I'm making a toast
Within my heart I keep my hope
Stay with me through the highs and lows
Might fade away, never leave a note
On my body just leave a rose
When my seeds is done, just watch it grow
When my seeds is done, just watch it grow
