Privilege

Privilege, so privileged, too privileged, that we're forgetting He put socks upon our feet, got food for us to eat, got grace to give, but we forget This dad ain't fair to all his kids Dream bout millions on millions, don't mind the millions who living In cities poverty stricken, sharing meals with the mickeys Sit round texting and calling, too busy sipping and rolling That's why IQs keep falling, that's why I can't get outta bed When my bell starts a ringing, lullabys me to sleep Smooth whispers, Listen close as it speaks Too passive, get passed on, so stuck on, attraction, to this dude and that girl Buy gold chains, and nice pearls, ain't happy, who would be, Like santa, to cookies Nice now-but everyone's got some, better have something more show me Better lead a life that's complete, slow growth builds big trees Calm minds bred victories, for decades for centuries They hunting, guard yo dreams, take big shots like Kobe Get slept on, Ginobili, But never, by no means Forget that path you tread, don't let this rising bread, get to your head... Everyone starves, when the biggest egos fed Life hurts cause people people, no changing facts Feeling like a hypocrite, raps based on Privilege, are we too privileged, so privileged, that we're forgetting Pops built bridges, old girl drew plans Tryna make headlines, couldn't make it in band Slave to this lifestyle, ain't comprehending... The patient needed, to drop records- other than books titled genius It endless the possibilities to slip We're all sinking Titanics cause, there's holes in the ship I'm not one to panic but when everybody's jumping This little voice keeps telling me the feds are up to something The blood we're pumping, first target of interest Dictates every breath we take plus the way that we spending Each individual moment either wasted or utilized We're half the folks we used to be, 3/5 ain't compromise Now you decide if you value your freedom Yeah you decide you decide if you're ready to lose it You decide if the cups half empty or full And you decide if a night, drowning in booze is Privilege, are we too privileged, so privileged, that we're forgetting
