Sound of Silence (feat. P Scyn)

I know where I'm aiming Got love but they hatin' I'm bound but I'm patient I've been here before I know where I'm aiming Got love but they hatin' I'm bound but I'm patient I've been here before Less I put it into words You don't get it I'm not heard There's no freedom We just watch it from the birds And then you wonder why we hurt Coz no gangster ever listens to a nerd Who seems to have it all together like buttons on a shirt That's how a blind man thinks Money, power and Greed, is how the blind man sinks Come after dark that's when his demons hang loose from that gin Watch him turn into a monster in his own black skin But that's no black man sin That's no black man ting I mean I only see my hero through a TV screen Doing drugs, or even sippin steadily on that lean He would change, but freedom given to him is no freedom, it's a cage With the liberty to pray and not engage Given to him is the liberty to choose But then the liberty to choose kills him slower than his liberty to move You see at work the slave is given opportunity to groom Make the moves but the slave is not entitled to improve It's like a house without a roof, like a bed without a room You're as big as you can dream so dream on and do you Pay your hours for the dreams, that you wish to see through But stay true, it's really hard to kill and burry the truth But then of course, you know how the pressure has the perks Like doubting if you're enough and questioning why it hurts Second guessing your worth Lost between a gift, and the karma behind the curse Coz the system's for the crooked not the straight its rehearsed These are A+ notes, Eih plus no jokes If this is healing It is water come drink don't choke Don't you lose that hop Black man don't fold I'm 24 years old But Being blessed still got me broke Nothing changed. Being black is what they hate me for is what they hate me for I know where I'm aiming Got love but they hatin' I'm bound but I'm patient I've been here before I know where I'm aiming Got love but they hatin' I'm bound but I'm patient I've been here before
