Mykal Riley - We Ain't They lyrics

[Intro] They tryna fill the quota They tryna fill the boat up They tryna take our dreams And make us into robots You should hear what they saying All the contemplating They don't really believe But they hoping that you save them It's so contradictory I'm a boro boy you see Got that Southern kind of living Won't you take a ride with me [Bridge] Don't be mad, Don't be mad Yoko had to kiss a beetle Don't be glad, Don't be glad Oh no alchemy is lethal Mixing up these raps (raps) with a couple beats I'd be worried about anyone who ever crossed me [Verse 1] Imma change up the structure Like a house to a trailer for a trucker Imma rap circles like a vulture Give fake n***as lectures Loan sharks Imma bite ya Feasting on the competition like a blood s**er Vampirical flow, I make empirical notes I been keeping up my poems like I'm Cyrano, No? Is that too on the nose for those that know literature though I'm so cold So it's cool My flow dope I keep smooth I keep rapping like I should've been an elf On Christmas eve making toys for the youth But instead i make songs, while kids singalong Paving the way showing dreams put you on If you just believe, the key is free, just take it from me The juice is plenty, spilling all on your knees So don't hold it Cuz its golden Leonidas with the Midas Sachs goldman With the sh** that I spit I'm so open That's why they used to call me Token Cuz I'm worth more than you ever really thought of me If they really do think, they never thought of me Saw me as a black that they could teach As long as it spread diversity Oooh ohhh don't get it now Trigger-finger hot and the pen is down Coming with the new wave of the new n***as Knowing sh** done the old way dont really fix it Cuz I'm finna run the streets with the 45 blowing At any police twitching when nigs coming Usually preach peace cuz Im still churchgoing But I'm feeling all defeat cuz it's our blood flowing in the streets [Hook] This a movement They don't want you to win They don't want you to dream They want to pacify n***as They want to keep you hungry They want to keep you down Keep you going back for more Pay you more money so you don't even want to dream no more [Bridge] Don't be mad, Don't be Mad Yoko had to kiss a beetle Don't be glad, Don't be glad Oh no alchemy is lethal Mixing up these raps (raps) with a couple beats I'd be worried bout anyone who ever crossed me [Verse 2] Imma change up the game Take a lame n***a brain, make him walk in the faith 'Till he kick it with the fame We don't gotta be insane The world is a maze but I downloaded Waze To be more than a phase or a one hit wonder Gon' rock the world like I'm Wanda NC 9th Wonder Now we on the rise like steam in a sauna What you fond of me or my music Weren't really tryna see me before the juices Ain't it loosely my loose-leaf loosing Thoughts in your head like an addy for the schooling Focus, Don't drift off topic Man with the plan don't fit that logic Embody the way that you tip-toe cautious But this project gon' show you how that thinking is so toxic Like damn, guess my lungs techtonic Boom in the room when I exhale chronic 'Quake to awake all the fears that you hiding If you riding with me then you better be shining Cuz I'm heading for the stars and the light is so blinding And I'm heading for the God and the love soul guiding And I'm coming for the crown better start throne watching Cuz I'm coming with my town better start lot plotting [Hook x3] This a movement They don't want you to win They don't want you to dream They want to pacify n***as They want to keep you hungry They want to keep you down Keep you going back for more Pay you more money so you don't even want to dream no more
