Alone

(album: Glorious Game - 2023)

Challenges, we rose to a lot of those
And passed with flying colors like the honor roll
With one school-aged child, another not as old
You been grinding overtime, getting to that pot of gold
Gotta make a solid home whether hot or cold
You never let somebody use an improper tone
You move wrong, you don't want it if it's not controlled
Even if you might not've known you are not alone

You are not alone (You are not alone)
No (No, no, no)
No (No, no, n-no, no)
No (No, no, n-no, no)
You are not alone (You are not alone)
No
No
No (Ooh)

Another day, another dollar thrown
The money all the same color though, it's monochrome
You already know the vibes like a xylophone
You an army of one, it's tatted on your collarbone
And you heard it all, seen it all, done it all
The bullshit is like the layers of the onion on
You wouldn't take the bar exam, so you studied law
Your favorite thing to say is, "I ain't studied none of y'all"
Driving Uber Eats just to make it through the week
Too discrete to be out here belonging to the streets
Careful of the company you keep
I mean, it's still cool to speak, but that other small talk is cheap
When the world feels like it's chiseled out of stone
Remember it's a different time in another zone
And if you can't see the poetry, you are a poem
Bless the child that's got a home, you're not alone

You are not alone (You are not alone)
No (No, no, no)
No (No, no, n-no, no)
No (No, no, n-no, no)
You are not alone (You are not alone)
No
No
No (Ooh)
