[Intro] C#m7 C#m7 G#m7 G#m7 x2 [Verse tabbed by bizzlex94]
Niggas be C#m7thinkin' I'm deep, intelligent, fooled by my college degree My IQ is C#m7average, there's a young lady out there, she way smarter than me I scrolled through her G#m7timeline in these wild times, and I started to read She mad at these G#m7crackers, she mad at these capitalists, mad at these murder police She mad at my C#m7niggas, she mad at our ignorance, she wear her heart on her sleeve She mad at the C#m7celebrities, lowkey I be thinkin' she talkin' 'bout me Now I ain't no G#m7dummy to think I'm above criticism
So when I see something that's valid, I listen
But G#m7shit, it's something about the queen tone that's botherin' me She strike me as C#m7somebody blessed enough to grow up in conscious environment With parents that C#m7know 'bout the struggle for liberation and in turn they provide her with A perspectiveG#m7 and awareness of the system and unfairness that afflicts 'em G#m7 And the clearest understandin' of what we gotta do to get free And the frusC#m7tration that fills her words seems to come from the fact that most people don't see Just 'cause you C#m7woke and I'm not, that shit ain't no reason to talk like you better than me How you gon' G#m7lead, when you attackin' the very same niggas that really do need the shit that you G#m7sayin'?
Instead of conveying you holier, come help get us up to speed
Shit, it's a C#m7reason it took like two hundred years for our ancestors just to get freed These shackles be C#m7lockin' the mental way more than the physical I look at freedom like trees, can't grow a G#m7forest like overnight
Hit the ghetto and slowly start plantin' your seeds
Fuck is the G#m7point of you preaching your message to those that already believe what you believe? I'm on some "C#m7Fuck a retweet," most people is sheep
You got all the answers but how you gon' reach?
If C#m7I could make one more suggestion respectfully I would say it's more effective to treat G#m7people like children Understandin' the time and love and patience that's needed to G#m7grow
This change is inevitable but ain't none of us seen this before
Therefore we C#m7just gotta learn everything as we go I struggle with thoughts on the daily Feel like a C#m7slave that somehow done saved enough coins to buy his way up outta slavery Thinkin' just G#m7maybe, in my pursuit to make life so much better for me and my babies I done beG#m7trayed the very same people that look at me like I'm some kind of a hero Because of the C#m7zeros that's next to the commas
But look here, I promise I'm not who you think
Ran into this C#m7nigga outside of the store yesterday He said something that had me like, "Wait" He was like "G#m7Cole, 'preciate what you been doin', my nigga, that's real" But damn, why I feel G#m7faker than Snow on Tha Bluff?
Well, maybe 'cause deep down I know I ain't doing enough C#m7 C#m7 G#m7 G#m7 x2 [Bridge]
The C#m7sun is C#m7shinin' G#m7todayG#m7 The C#m7sun is C#m7shinin' G#m7todayG#m7 The C#m7sun is C#m7shinin' G#m7todayG#m7
[Outro]
C#m7Can you walk with me? I hope we'll find the C#m7reason why we often sob, go on, cry G#m7Painful memories fuck up the vibe Though I G#m7be tryin' to let the time heal my mind C#m7I was once a child, I've gotten older C#m7Still, I know I'm just a boy in God's eyes G#m7Fill me up with wisdom and some courage G#m7Plus endurance to survive, help mine thrive
