[Intro]
As my dad would say
"There's two roads you could choose from, pick your path"
Take that any way you wanna
Killa
[Verse 1]
Yeah, I been tryna tell myself, "I need to be more honest"
Naked truth, I'm talking like I stripped you off the top list
Topless? No, top list, the one you don't belong in
Act like they forgotten that it's fucking rockin' at the bottom
Yeah, be humble, no Kendrick
I heard if you really want it, you should go get it
But it's never simple when you're heavy on your soul mission
Find a light to blossom with, be positive and grow with it
Flower child
Even as a youngin', I was passionate, high strung
Took a lotta bangs growing up, call that life drums
Gotta be drugs, еverybody on where I'm from
Littlе do they know, I never did what they think I might done
Many lives being claimed for the matter
I went to funerals that happened sooner than they had to
The families lie about the cause, makes it even sadder
So I'm not gon' say no names
But you could recognize the patterns, yeah
It's unlikely for a cardiac arrest
In a healthy young adult who now can hardly take a breath (Gasp)
Til the last beat of the heart inside your chest
Live fast, die young, yeah, party til the death (No)
Shit is getting old not having a chance at getting old
The daredevil that's inside tryna rip your soul
Man, I ain't gotten high since 24, hit the dro
Now I'm 30 and I'm fucking scared of all the shit I know
We're exposed to some things that could weaken us
You gotta know when the parties over and the weekends up
That's coming from an insomniac that doesn't sleep enough
The older that you get the more the pain becomes a deeper cut
But it could change if you show a little more care
I know you're sick of fighting yourself, warfare
You feel that feeling in your core? Don't ignore there
That's an instinct, so think again 'bout what it's for, dear
I got my reasons why I'm speaking on these incidents
It's either cause I been in it, or personally, I've witnessed it
And I have strong belief The Lord was being generous
He blessed me with a voice, so I don't waste it on the gibberish
I gotta do it for my people like I'm obligated
I single-handedly been working, so the job is taken
It's more than 9 to 5, my passion is my occupation
And I'm spending time on it, call that shit a homage payment
It must be complicated tryna seize complexity
We make it harder if we never try to see where effort leads
But honestly, we need more honesty, integrity
Tired of all this pressure, will we ever be compression-free?
I was sent to send a message out, broadcast
These haters seem like they forever doubt, squash that
Man, your entire squad a bunch of fakes, fraud pack
Blowing smoke like a vape, need to take your mod back
You start to act like who you kick it with like kicking rocks
You even get to talking like em', chatter-chitter box
There's many toxics tryna harm, get you sick a lot
Wheres the fucking cure to make the carcinogenic stop? (Stop, stop)
That's the reason people feel like we have no hope
Need to treat each other better, but we don't though
I could never not have heart, no no
Ask me how I feel Ima tell em', 'So so'
I'm not okay man, I feel powerless and vulnerable
I don't feel hot about how cold the world has grown into
Only money, fame, and unimportant shit is notable
Why am I preaching?
Nobody gives a fuck 'bout what you're going through
[Outro]
But I do though
Stay strong
It's Da Killa KC
