VERSE 1:
I ain't talkin' mouth to the pavement
When I say I talk to the streets
All you n***as out here doubt being patient
When I say Ima be droppin' the heat
I be bringin' free thought to yo whole playlist
Make a n***a rethink what he thought greatness was
You thought me? Got it mistaken, greatness
Is the saviors never vacant love
And this ain't consciousness, This is common sense
Don't get it twisted, “Deep Water” everybody missed it
Everybody say they heard the song but did they listen
“In one ear out the other”, word to mother
n***as only heard the stutters
Only one that understood it was my older brother
And he ain't need a Teflon to let it coat the gutter
Peep Rap Genius for the the clarification
Because I ain't beatin'‘round the bush no mo'
Rather make a n***a think for a rare occasion
When he solve it, he'll wonder why it took so long
n***a think a lil deeper
Shouldn't have to break it down when I spit somethin' deep
Everybody gather ‘round take a win because it's free
Got a lil love for all, n***a lift up yo seats
No Oprah
HOOK (x2):
I shouldn't have to break it down, just think a lil' deeper
Won't you think a lil' deeper on this
You shouldn't only hear the sounds, but listen to the speaker
Don't you focus on them speakers bumpin'
VERSE 2:
Let me drop a lil knowledge on yo head boy
This'll benefit what you lack, I ain't never really out here tryna
Pull a n***a leg boy, never mislead
I'm as sharp as a tack when it come to free thought
On point like the tail of a donkey
You should pin this down in some permanent ink
Because the truth don't change when the firmament heats
When the kitchen get flamed, you'll have a cool head boy
That's that free thought confidence that'll set in
Mindsets broaden, eyes un-fog, and yo brain
Gets freed from the thought of a dead end
Empiricism at it's finest, we gon' try and stray away of
Being slaves of a mindset
All these traditions trynna dogmatize the reality of
People stepping' out from the dialect…
n***a I object, this whole case out of order
But I'll never judge y'all
Because that ain't my job boi, I got another purpose
To raise y'all thought patterns
Higher than the surface
And that's just a peek at my goal that eats at my soul, because
Much as I'm spittin' the truth at these n***as
They still find a way to critique at my flow
I'm gone…
HOOK (x3):
