Socially Distant

(You Need Tint For This Shit) An artist's duty, as far as I'm concerned, is to reflect the times I think that is true of painters, sculptors, poets, musicians As far as I'm concerned, it's their choice But I choose to reflect the times and situations in which I find myself That to me is my duty And at this crucial time in our lives, when everything is so desperate When every day is a matter of survival, I don't think you can help but be involved Young people, black and white know this, that's why they're so involved in politics We will shape and mold this country (Jay) Or it will not be molded and shaped at all anymore So I don't think you have a choice, how can you be an artist and not reflect the time That to me is the definition of an artist Them blue lights give me anxiety since my adolescences We didn’t call 'em for problems we just kept protection They planted pills in my whip I’m too smart that I guess I fit the description because I’m young and black I spark a blunt for my friends that’s dead and gone If you love ya I love ya but don’t judge by my phone I guess I’m back to the basics I’m to use that The KK calling the shots but we throw em back Take pride in giving not taking but don’t get me mistaken Sacrificed to wear this crown it ain’t just celebrating A lot of hating a lot of waiting a lot of concentrating You crashed out you coulda fixed it with a conversations Draco tucked in my jacket before the shit was cool No matter which way you hype it when you die you lose I'm prophetic I reap fruit from the shit I built Let 'em talk I ain’t responding to no spilled milk Burberry on my tips toes so I’m walking lite Subcompact in the mall I’m too clean to fight Couple chains couple dollars couple fucking problems Take the thorns with the buds when you fucking awesome Brought ya strap left your heart you just drunk and high They burning bridges for pussy when it’s in high supply Don’t come laughing and talking unless you got a mask Ain’t no refunds on love so don’t even ask (Its Jay) You know its crazy, cause like This young lady I went to school with died from that covid 19 shit the other day And what's crazy is she was younger than me Bless her family Bless her heart I'm social distancing
