[Spoken word]
What if trust was as simple as a breathe?
What if they never laid my grandpa to rest?
What if my other mother never caught a mess?
What if our quotation fathers actually gave a f**?
Another white casket, another white casket
Police happy to see another white shooter
Her mothers makeup smudging on my shoulders cause I'm the only one she's got left now that she's gone.
What if black students grew up with both parents
And we didn't have this school sh** all we had was our mother
You telling me if we couldn't read a line our lives to got reading involved?
And what if I never sent that text to her saying my life is finished, my father never only came for dinner, and traded our family for printer, you telling me that my cousin would still have a house to live in? And my mother wouldn't be writing me from Facebook? But f** it this is life, deal with it or get taken, I'm in my room crying alone like I'm hazel,
Cause some days the truths hard to face, dad turns his words hard to face, but look closer see the truth of a legend, 120 pounds with the walk of a giant, so melancholy
I pop a sia Turn up the volume.....
[Spoken word 2]
Look, what if s** never came with regrets?
What if making a name never came with regrets?
Would the people I use to be cool with never left?
I think that bust was a second of d**h
d**h of a friendship, d**h of my girl, d**h of my boy, the insides of me are always dead before they understand,
Sharpen up my inch again, listen to note sound again, draw my sixes again, lucifers not a word he's in the jam, whiskey and throw-up on my nike's, bright red and blue lights and free roads, and right next to the blade that's on my dresser are plastic bags of peer pressure and I'm ready to vacate, I live in a cave, how can I be the good friend when I'm the one needing solace, 8 hours of this stressed out living, me and my jump street no cube, listen nothing last forever is what Monroe said, I thought the same until I saw her sister and thought as a brother, what if today was the only way I can spoil her was dying? So concurring I pop a vein and turn up the volume....
