Slim Ramos - Air It Out Lyrics

Felt good to air it out, might I say
I'm conveying this pain, I'm brazen I'm agitated
I say it in vain, cause you was never listening
More than half my life without you physically, pop
So if we ain't talking now it's cool
But to be fair, I'm used to it, yea
Cause you was barely there, putting ya legal issues aside, it's fine, if you back
We can start from scratch but I had to check you for that, Uh
And there's a larger point at play, been boiling up for days
You been making some statements that I'm ashamed of
First of all, the way you speak of where we came from
Got me feeling like you hate yourself
Ey this country got you feeling like you ain't yourself
The ways I felt, framed it well but played yourself and, uh
You need to know we come from kings and queens
It's a scheme, got us rope-a-doping when we boxed in, eh

Yea, sometimes you got to air it out
Yea, so dawg I had to air ya out
I don't know if you really feel what I'm speaking on
But this shit was too real, for me to keep at home
Yea, sometimes you got to air it out, yea
So dawg I had to air ya out
I don't know if you really feel what I'm speaking on
But this shit was too real, for me to keep at home

Yea, Yea, Yea, Yea
So believe in what you want
I'm disappointed but I'd rather keep it blunt
You got another son, probably hoping that he is what I wasn't huh
Got him thinking that he wrong for speaking Spanish uh
Yo that shit eats at me, I'm lost for words
We can criticize our own but just want you keep perspective first
I understand that you that wanted a better life for me
But don't deprive me from my history, see
Your own fathers brown as dirt, we from the lungs of the earth
You see crime and lies but dawg I see my people hurtin'
It's a cry for help, and no amount of privileges can hide that
You really said if I don't like it I should go back
Well f*ck that, I need my reparations
No stagnating I need mobilization, been waiting patiently yea
It's ironic how you dodged and ducked the system
But you mentally imprisoned got you thinking you with them, f*ck

Yea, sometimes you got to air it out
Yea, so dawg I had to air ya out
I don't know if you really feel what I'm speaking on
But this shit was too real, for me to keep at home
Yea, sometimes you got to air it out, yea
So dawg I had to air ya out
I don't know if you really feel what I'm speaking on
But this shit was too real, for me to keep at home

Transoceanic trips got us on the strip
Run this shit, legit, caught tendonitis
Don't slight him in the slightest, foo
See we limping in the cut like we got arthritis
Foolie foolie it's a cold world
Ignorance is bliss, repetition, friction and we don't got time to think, what
What's right and wrong, watch them single out the vagabonds
Bout time I opened third eye's like Tien Shin Han
But this is about us, oh you saddened by me
Strange but predictably, you don't know your own seed
You should of known I'd turn out like this
If you don't like it should have been around for times like this
But as I move forward I can't have the standards lowered
We grow and evolve, foresee, proceed and succeed
The bottom line is it's love but I stand on my feet
And if you don't love this culture than you can't love me, I'm gone
