Heard Em Say

(альбом: No Pressure - 2020)

[Chris Thompson:]
I saw a kid with no smile on his face today
"Where is my place in this bright future?" I heard him say
Heard him s— I heard him s— I heard him say

[Logic {Chris Thompson}:]
Say I ain't good enough, they say I ain't hood enough
Even if I signed to Yeezy, I wouldn't be good enough (Good enough)
{Heard him s— I heard him s— I heard him say}
Killing myself to make a killing
Fuck the bullshit, I'ma just write what I'm feeling (Write what I'm feelin')
{Heard him s— I heard him s— I heard him say}
I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not
Give a fuck if it's hot (Fuck if it's hot)

[Chris Thompson:]
I saw a kid with no smile on his face today
"Where is my place in this bright future?" I heard him say

[Logic {Chris Thompson}:]
That boy different, don't fuck with him
But I'd rather stand out than stand in
Let the story begin (Turn the mic down)
{Heard him s— I heard him s— I heard him say}
Look in the mirror and what I tell 'em?
Reflecting on my life, I'm Keanu in Parabellum (Parabellum)
{Heard him s— I heard him s— I heard him say}
Came a long way from where you was
Up-and-comer with a buzz, overcame selling drugs
Overcame depression, even overcame addiction
And had the courage to say what others wouldn't with conviction
Always in the kitchen, never mind who be bitching (Mind who be bitchin')

[Chris Thompson:]
I saw a kid with no smile on his face today
"Where is my place in this bright future?" I heard him say

[Logic:]
Never mind who be bitching
This is for the person in the back who always gon' listen
Fuck a punchline, this is food for thought like the lunch line
We all got problems, the question is, can you solve 'em?
Had the courage to face all of 'em and resolve 'em
Shit, I know you can 'cause I did
I know you can 'cause I done it
No matter what the fuck you going through, I'ma keep it a hundred
I know you can overcome it
Baby mama trippin'? I know, I've been there
Boss caught you slippin'? I know, I've been there
Somebody beefing with you? Man, that shit ain't rare
Just keep it pushing

I saw a kid with no smile on his face today
"Where is my place in this bright future?" I heard him say

[Logic:]
I've been battling with my demons
I'm cowardice when I see 'em
I'm powerless, I can't beat 'em
But deep down, I feel like I need 'em
Power is freedom, you can lead 'em but can't feed 'em
Smiling on my face but I'm dying under the surface
What is my purpose? I'm feeling worthless
Tell me what worth is
My flaws, I happily greet 'em
Imperfections, I love 'em
My enemies, I defeat 'em
Man, I know somebody gon' relate to this
If keeping it real is a sin, you better pray for this
'Cause I wanted this shit all my life
'Til I finally got it and realized there's so much more to life
Used to dream I'd become the fucking man I am
Stacking money and reading my son Sam I Am
Love life, can't tell you how much a fan I am
This is grown folk music if you did not know
Thirty something, I ain't rapping 'bout no dumb shit, ho
Keep it real, Bobby boy ain't no kid no more
Now keep it real, Bobby boy ain't no kid no more
Now if you feeling how I'm feeling, let a motherfucker know
