Shake

(album: Smile, You're Alive! - 2021)

I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I don't see no restraints
But I still feel restricted

I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I don't see no restraints
But I still feel restricted

Benji. Benji. so happy
But that's so inaccurate
Benji. been a piece of shit
But I'm still immaculate
Benji. Benji. so perfect
But let's keep it factual
I just know that I'm worth it
Because my growth is gradual
I went to college never graduated
The system had me agitated
Doesn't take a Lincoln to navigate it
I smoke then Benji. Activated
Getting back to basics back to faceless
Back to patience back to gracious
Thou forsake us ghetto gospel ghetto savior
Ghetto prophet ghetto neighbor
In ya pockets load the chamber
I be that God fearing
With that God feeling bound to see the face of God, chillin
If my God willing
But I got time to wait but no time to waste
Father Time be reeling
Benji. be the dope God Villian
Whatever my mind be feeling whatever my mind be feeling
I see trouble on trouble
Only two more shots before I see double on double
I been up all night keeping it subtle on subtle
Tryna reach that light swear that's the struggle on struggle

I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I don't see no restraints
But I still feel restricted

I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I don't see no restraints
But I still feel restricted

Color Color where are you?
Running drills like Chicago
From where they hug tight because they might not see you tomorrow
Cousin went too far though
Went a merked a few bar golds
Now his name is like a barcode
I miss when it was just John Doe
I kill the verse put it in a hearse
Hijack the hearse
Then crash the hearse
Then gas the hearse
Then match the hearse
If the cops mad they better catch me first
Paint pictures with paint brushes I dipped in all the tears from us
Poker face like Phil Ivey
King shit that's royal flushing
Play your role when you speak to me
Seven days niggas weak to me
Smelling like a whole drinks on me
Any move will make me reach for it
From a place in California
Where blue ain't just a color
Been a while since I seen my brother
If you listening, mamma love you
So many fake niggas tropic thunder
I think these niggas Robert Downey Jr.
But when they see Iron Man they say we fine man
They was just rumors
Who to call I cannot call it
No one loves an alcoholic
Take a shot of all I got
And pray to God I don't get shot

I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I don't see no restraints
But I still feel restricted

I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I can't shake my addictions
I can fake my afflictions
I don't see no restraints
But I still feel restricted
