lyrics

Verse 1:
This is me pitchin/ keep sittin in your seat/ this a river to a creek/ lil homie you got no flow/ so/ when you listen to the beat/ better keep it on repeat/ what I'm giving you is so deep/ see/ how you sittin in a range/ while you pitchin for some change/ still spittin out complaints huh?/ you got it twisted while you sippin on your drink/ instead of getting all defensive/ you should listen for a change/ everybody knows that life is difficult/ but in comparison/ man our stripes is minimal/ see/ society got us hyped as criminals/ like/ clinical cynical's/ sittin at the pinnacle/ thinkin we're individuals/ livin strictly habitual/ it's pitiful/ we ditching on all our principles/ I swear it's biblical/ in addition/ we're inhospitable to all the inexplicable/ typical if you ask me/ cuz in the past/ you try to pass as the present and you wouldn't pass last week/ in other words its like living extortion/ try to focus in/ all we see us distortion/ parents now gettin rid of their kids/ a hundred years ago/ women wouldn't dream of abortion/ see/ I exercise my right to freedom of speech/ but if you disagree/ it's like I lost my freedom to speak/ right?

Verse 2:
Well/ I ain't playin your games/ so you could say that he's lame/ but I ain't gonna change/ so just come at me with your lame beef/ telling me not to change you/ then press your beliefs and try to change me/ say I'm intolerant/ hateful/ alright cool man/ tell me what that makes you?/ huh?/ ain't no pro choice/ it's pro death/ speak on it/ pro voice til there's no breath/ and/ that's not all that I came here to say/ I'm not a leader/ just re paving the way cuz see/ rappers telling us to stay strapped/ Rollin in a maybach/ laid back/ now a days man I hate rap/ I'm steady praying for the day it makes its way back home like a stray cat/ til then I pay to listen to em lie to me/ quietly envision/ then give into my anxiety/ plus it's like we frown upon sobriety/ am I the only one willing to ask what's wrong with our society?

Verse 3:
So/ while you decide if you likin the verse/ there's kids in 3rd world countries that's dying of thirst/ know what I mean?/ no you don't/ you ain't never been there/ focused on your whip/ your chicks focused on her skin care/ and we get pissed when we face injustice but/ take a look at them homie/ it ain't ever been fair/ you ever take a moment to think?/ I bet they'd die for the water you pour out in your sink/ I bet they'd kill for the food you throw out in your trash/ while you go on and on whining bout the s*** you never had/ it's like the seasons never change/ fussin bout our lives like we can't be the ones to blame/ livin in the richest country in the world/ give the boy a mil/ I bet he'll still find a reason to complain/ we just conceal the answers when most of us have never felt a real disaster/ like/ a hurricane/ we don't feel it matters/ we're to busy gettin filled by this silver platter right?/ til they movin us out/ we hard to recognize without the silver spoon in our mouths/ and/ it's not up for discussion/ the amount of negligence towards others is simply disgusting/ so forget what you heard/ if you live in this country and your not grateful/ you've got some nerve
