(Quietly) Do The Right Thing

(album: Songs To Yeet At The Sun - 2020)

What is heart to a head start but to drive me like a cheap car
To go three times as hard just to get half as far?

Don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong
Don't get me wrong, but don't get me fucked up
Covetous eyes can't see substance, which makes sense, lust is nothing besides a cancer to my cousin
I ain't count nobody pocket off nothing, but you covered your ass then covered your eyes 'cause you're covered and fly and buzzing
Don't treat us like we're dusty, we're alone as fuck out here and it's funny
And naïve of me to really believe niggas out the weeds wielding the reach that they think they've achieved
Clout just about amounts to nothing, so I'll believe it when I see
Man, nigga please

Niggas think that they slick with the shit they show they care about
Do you expect me to stick around with my head down and my hand out?

This shit is coming out easy, I've seen it time after time in my life
Just because I am crazy doesn't mean I'm not right

It comes to mind there was a few times niggas acknowledged us
In ways that looked and felt like a lot more than empty promises
It comes to mind there was a few times I wanted to admonish you
When I felt provoked by the words you spoke in real time like they weren't first mine

It comes to mind there were a few times I had to remind myself
I wasn't the first person to be passed over for waifish aryans
And that I too have subjected others to that same rejection and hurt
Yeah, I'll fry myself there, oddly enough, I didn't come to lose my trust in anyone

In 2020, it could be an insult if you don't wanna get money with someone
In twenty-ninescene it was always someone out here tryna talk down or fucking promise us something
In 2020, it could be an insult if you don't wanna get money with someone
In twenty-ninescene it was always someone out here tryna talk down or fucking promise us something
