Brilliant Mack - Mental Slavery lyrics

[Chorus: Delayne Nicole] Where are you going? Where are you going? Don't leave Me Don't leave Me Where are you going? Where are you going? Don't leave me Their love is misleading [Verse 1: D. Ciano] Look I can tell, things haven't been alright for you But we can't attend every argument we're invited to They want you uncomfortable walking apprehensively So they made you confuse violence with masculinity Acting aggressive, attacking our brethren Clapping a weapon's effecting our essence, dare to correct it Not here to question, just here to show we share a reflection So far past our oppression yet we still lacking direction Let's find your pa**ion, a dream you can achieve on your own Cause they don't want your future brighter than the screen on your phone Speaking of phone, see how we rank each other's importance? With material things, electronics, color of Jordans Our culture is hectic, pursuing social acceptance And it seems praying will only send the vultures a message We should be growing investments not holding a necklace These trends I'm hoping the next is, folgers for breakfast There's no fight to win our future, material worth our soul When lives get evicted, paying attention's what we owe The sky is the limit, don't get complacent in what you know Cause complacency k**s, and d**h isn't a way to grow [Hook: D. Ciano & Delayne Nicole] I've been thinking, I've been thinking bout you and me And exactly who we were before they told us who to be I've been thinking I've been thinking bout being free Ever since we've been enchained in this mental slavery [Chorus] [Verse 2: D. Ciano] You're such a flower, I hate you blossomed unusually The florists enjoying you not growing beautifully They want the absence of your cla** without truancy So they'll make you confuse s**iness with nudity See on TV they define what's fine To make you blind cause the definition's already your design But take your time, prevail through mud Cause they'll make you hate yourself so they could sell you love The implants, the weaves, the make up, the dream They sell you all these things by implying it's what you need And you'll fall for it, But I'm just hoping you'd fall forward Now enhancing your inner beauty, I'm all for it This world's incompetent, with most lacking in common sense Grew up fatherless, now her likes weigh more than compliments Astonishing, rarely wives, just sides, baby mamas and They strive to be called bad while Inviting drama in There's no filter for our future, no selfie for our soul Our minds have been imprisoned but our hearts are on parole The sky has been the limit share your art with all the globe And I'm hoping you will listen cause there's time for us to grow [Hook] [Bridge: D. Ciano & Delayne Nicole] Someday come back for me Someday someday come back for me Someday come back for me Someday someday come back for me baby Someday come back for me Someday someday come back for me Someday come back for me Someday someday come back for me baby [Chorus]
