Red Spheres

(album: Affable With Pointed Teeth - 2021)

Heard my homie just died so I'm puffing sticky
Know these crackas on my ass, they could come and get me
I was skipping every class, knew something was missing
Ain't bout to beef with a brother, the whites want division
Could do it if it's 'bout some bread, that's the one condition
Fighting my demons, we had some dumb collisions
Couldn't learn from my father 'cause he was stuck in prison
Tryna heal, rolled a zip in just a couple sittings
Middle of the night, I had to shed tears
Handle it for self-pleas, fall on deaf ears
Kumite with evils when they crept near
I see the world in my hand with these red spheres
Called that white boy inferior, this the role reversal
See me on the street, know a nigga holding purple
Manifesting my thoughts, you niggas go in circles
Give a fuck about what you bought, we growing virtues
Days when I thought my life was blown into the wind
Shit felt insurmountable then I rose again
Need more but a ounce will do, we making ends
Saw you let the crackers council you, I'm here to break they hands
Chiefing on a thousand spliffs, never passing out
Fuck they talking 'bout, I need my shit in vast amounts
Make a couple hundred thousand, put it in some stash accounts
Mean stain on that white boy, I had to scan they house

What, I had to scan the house
Couple hundred thousand, put it in a stash account
What they talking 'bout, I need my shit in vast amounts
Chiefing on a thousand spliffs, never passing out
