[Intro: T.Bailey] You can't tell someone That they not pa**ionate about something Ima do this the best way I can [Verse: T.Bailey] Yo, as I'm 30,000 feet headed overseas 12 hours long I'm reclining to be at ease Leg room, a bit of whisky a vacant seat Reflecting back on the time when I was rhyming in the streets Rhawn And Myke, scouted no hesitation Then they said hop up in the studio then we created 3-5 songs a day, cause we was on a mission Came along way with shows, mix tapes, and engineering Never trust anybody mentality Played the victim, felt everyone was just after me We was in the Benz, the white one with YG b**hes drunk as f** throwing up in the back seat Shoot out over by Roscoes right out the whip Heard bout like 100 shots lucky the k**er bricked Momma know I love her, even after the difference They feel the distance, I'm k**ing beats call it a hitlist [Hook: Luccie Fontaine] See, a black man, I just happen to be In this white world They don't want me to lead Fall victim to heed Take you out of the game Right before you score, family pain Take a shot man, straight to the dome Poor the rest of it out, for my n***as that gone Can't cry no tears, I let it reign through the song And say a prayer lord keep me strong, rejoice! [Verse 2: T.Bailey] America land of opportunity Other countries k** for a privilege just to come and see The same sh** America take for granted Is the same resources that people would take advantage So much more to see, I haven't seen enough I was going downhill momentum shifted up I went to school but still that money wasn't enough Doing illegal sh** with some immigrants in Africa When I was young my dad drove around this Buick He instilled the music, only right go pursue it State to state DJ Quick in the tape deck Stay ready so you ain't gotta Suga Free said that Had a book full of CDs and threw out the cases Back when a CD the only thing out to make it The internet came about and made it look simple Cause n***as getting on strictly cause instrumentals [Hook: Luccie Fontaine] See, a black man, I just happen to be In this white world They don't want me to lead Fall victim to heed Take you out of the game Right before you score, family pain Take a shot man, straight to the dome Poor the rest of it out, for my n***as that gone Can't cry no tears, I let it reign through the song And say a prayer lord keep me strong, rejoice! [Verse 3: T.Bailey] Y'all not here but real sh** yall apart of me If it wasn't for a team, I wouldn't even know how to reach While they was opportunist, we was out creating our own Time to sit and face it and I ain't talking no iPhone You know you good when you your grandaddies favorite Dreamt the other night that I couldn't touch him I hated it We can link up like a Rolex I an got my weight up without the Bo flex Pull his record way before he was rapping That record indicates he a phony and he just acting I'm MIA so they ask me how have I been Rather than already anticipate on seeing me again Stock market discussions with the ones I an came up with Profit over wages and trading margins, percentages Money, either ruin or run everything Your Parents asking you if your man can afford a wedding ring [Hook: Luccie Fontaine] See, a black man, I just happen to be In this white world They don't want me to lead Fall victim to heed Take you out of the game Right before you score, family pain Take a shot man, straight to the dome Poor the rest of it out, for my n***as that gone Can't cry no tears, I let it reign through the song And say a prayer lord keep me strong, rejoice!
