The Sun

I keep my dreams in my pocket Tryna defy the odd the odds These people think that they is blocking Me from my goals I keeps it real on the mic This hip hop was fried When Biggie and Pac died Keeping my soul close These rappers be hot lies Gang banging on the gram You thinking you hot now It's all a game Till Suckas get caught up Then laid down I be looking at the sun Thinking bout the times that's passed The things I've overcome 2020 been a Bitch I ain't really worried bout it People dying every day But we don't really talk about it Statistics ain't a thang when the system always lying Don't know what to believe So you won't see me leave the house Without a mask Cause they wanna catch u slipping But I'm fast like the flash They say the end around corner How's that suppose to make me feel Dead inside So I'm just drowning out the real You won't see me popping pills Gotta suffocate my ears Looking out for all my peers Brothas locked a hundred years Hit the girl up where she is Tell the homie let me live Can you people let me breathe You won't see what I can I see You don't need to see, believe Understand there was a message That was born inside me Ain't living for myself Living for the bigger things I say abandon hope And leave ya dreams wit all them fiends Cause life is what it is It ain't never what it seem They got me trapped In this building of seclusion Living life bad Happiness more of illusion Stuck in my mind and the stressing What I'm doing Swear I'm so conflicted Just tryna find a solution Just tryna find a solution I stepped away from problems A brotha threw up them deuces See black man run fast But problem can run faster Confront it while you can Or you'll never find no answer I wondered what I did I wonder what I am I wonder what I did to deserve What they handed I guess that's just the way it is You'll never understand it Looking at the sun Thinking when that time come Will a brotha run Or will I just accept it Let it happen Know its done
