Friends changed their ways thought I ain't notice
Grandma lost her life when she got covid
21st and my cousin passed from alcohol related complications days later
Y'all still wonder why I'd never touch a bottle
But shit
I been great on my own
Take my woman out on dates on my own
Make rat flip backwards
And face the pavement of the road
Came up from up from the tar
Light as a feather way I flow
This that slide shit
Six am cruising down Storrow Drive shit
My city we don't need no autopilot
We just grab the stick if you shift then we ridin'
Snitches stitched together when the weather change its climate
They in old fashion
You can't travel to my tabernacle in those fabrics
Your ways are past habits
It's main Design divide and conquer
But No longer can we tolerate the way that evil prosper
This a place of worship
So make your sacrifice if you gon' do it
Or decide change your mind
An climb aboard kid
From all sides we steady warring
Lay down their lives
For a dying way of life
While we support it
It took this man to quit ignoring
All the facts were too abhorrent
That my blinded youthful eyes
From which a boy had grown to notice
The distorted twisted motives
Of a fragile ethic codex
So in time you remain frozen and you wither in the cold
I'm just tryna' know my place
Asking you to show the way
I can't feel my face
Tell me what you have to say
I'm just tryna' find my way
I'm just tryna' know my place
I'm still learning what is safe
I know you can't stand the rain
