See The End
(专辑: The Headspace Traveler - 2016)
I'm in the
lobby about to make a
scene I've got questions I
need answers Politicians on the
TV screen Might as well be holograms 'cause I
ain't seen them in the
streets Never heard them speakers weep We ain't had a
voice 'til we found a
beat I
could smoke a
pound of weed And still not be high enough For them to hear me out What is that about, huh? Obama let me down So I'm cashing out They all the
same when they in the
house Question now Who they working for They ain't repping us Kanye was right when he ever spoke they didn't gave a
fuck So here I
am Nothing more than a
man Nothing less than the
rest But still I
hope for a
chance I
know the
future is cold I
know the
present is tense I
know the
dollar run the
world I'm just trying to make sense [cents] Yeah If I
open my eyes again, will I
see the
end? Will I
fall again? And if they come for my life again, will they see the
end? Or will I
fall again? Whatchu gon' do when the
whole world gone crazy? Like right now when police are shooting at babies? Not yet grown, still get popped in the
dome First they see you foreclose Now they robbing your home, whoa Redlining is illegal Pay order is illegal But gentrifying is the
latest thing they buying And all you hear are major label artists on the
radio I
ain't hating though, I'm just saying though What are you saying when you singing on the
microphone? People listen yo That's whatchu' famous for Turning dollars into change we can save the
globe But most times we don't We just smoke up and fall back and stay safe at home Tune out go numb While they pull out they guns Tears fill my lungs while the
streets fill with blood Look at these flames All the
fire from your cannon make it hard for me to see another way I
ain't running I
ain't ducking but I'm damn sure ain't staying in the
blast no I'm a
king and my queen need a
brother who can keep her out the
grave Whole world gone crazy Whole world gone crazy If I
open my eyes again, will I
see the
end? Will I
fall again? And if they come for my life again, will they see the
end? Or will I
fall again? Dash-cam footage seeing bodies dropping Twitter timeline got us all talking Are we the
generation who's gonna do something? That's an honest question See my nephew playing with guns make-believing and such Had to tell him about Tamir Rice and take away the
fun Now he resents the
fact that he's black Says he wishes he was light skinned like I
am Self-hate, stereotypes, make the
narrowest minds They've been handing us lies since the
beginning of time Displacing the
kings, raping the
queens so they could break up the
dream I
tell my story the
[? bot?] is a
one of a
kind Port-au-Prince in my heart, Holocaust on my mind I
write a
rhyme I
could fly some of these artists are gods I
ain't dismissing your problems I
know they've never been mine Never walked in your shoes ain't gonna stop walking in mine There's a
problem with hip hop polarizing our thoughts You mean to say I
ain't real because I
got positive vibes? You mean to say he can't perform cause he caught up a
charge People judging like a
competition, gimmicks like a
politician City segregated, music venues, no exception You know the
message, that's unless you never listen Microphone checking when I
hold my weapon I
know everything I
do is a
blessing From the
water that I
drink to the
food I'm digesting I've seen people dying fighting just to find some peace It's ironic thinking violence to get us where we need by any means Sometimes it does, sometimes you can't just run you stand up My momma raised me a
man, my father raised me a
leader the
world made me a
rapper stumping in my Adidas I
don't need a
plaque, I
don't need a
mil' I
just need to eat, I
just need to feel like I'm speaking my real Or I
might explode, my mind might just go I've seen too much pain did not change the
globe Yeah If I
don't see the
end, I
pray you hear me now, I
pray you understand This is more than me, I
never wanted to be anything more than you I
just want to be part of the
peace If I
open my eyes again, will I
see the
end? Will I
fall again? And if they come for my life again, will they see the
end? Or will I
fall again?
