Overstand

Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand I just wanna fold them band Tryna make it to the chosen land Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand I just wanna fold them band Tryna make it to the chosen land The stone the builder refused Often comes at a price You have to over-stand rates To escape any strife But what's the price of peace Deny or cease, of minds we speak What's righteously mine to be? Silently imma be free Though the system spites us No longer responding to whiteness Does it define us? If my only response is silence When life is this vibrant No longer focused on pressure Without pushing the joy To exist the system We have to build to destroy Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand I just wanna fold them band Tryna make it to the chosen land Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand I just wanna fold them band Tryna make it to the chosen land We have to over-stand struggle As it prepares us for blessings Self reflection's the answer To many unwritten questions If smarts rule the world And ignorance carries the burden How are you seeking purpose? When you're not even putting work in Perpetually blessed with knowledge we step Intellectually met with regret Because of the culture I rep But its bless so I say less Protecting my peace The system will never win Coz its marked by the beast Overstand as a people we're perpetually blessed Though the system is designed to frustrate and stress You could guess who they protect then elect Know your melanin is the halo that blesses your crown A royalty to spoil we, whilst antennas hold us down Know that resistance in all forms comes with protecting your piece Your silence can be the shield that saves you when you're feeling weak Though it feels bleak the burden is not always ours to carry So protect your peace and remember moving with love Is what makes us happy Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand I just wanna fold them band Tryna make it to the chosen land Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand Say them haffi overstand I just wanna fold them band Tryna make it to the chosen land
