None - k** 'em with Kindness lyrics

Yo Yo, This For All My Progressive Thinkers [Verse 1] Cautious with the image that I'm givin' What used to be appealin' is the sh** that I'm resentin' Feel like I ain't livin', I'm dealin' with so much On the low, I'm actin' tough, but I ain't been happy in a minute And what's crazy is this is just the beginning Ridin' 'round Vegas tryna build my foundation That immediate happiness is awaitin' But I feel it's overrated, I'm keepin' a clear conscience I just wanna do my own thing A good heart But what if I'm out here fightin' for the wrong things? Became a daddy and started watching my behavior Helpin' n***as out, but n***as runnin' out of favors It ain't about the paper, it's about what you gon' do with it You on your music tip, but tell me, is you the creator? These n***as don't know how to act I should've been a school counselor To see what they'd get out of that All I wanna do is help, if it's a little Got up in this game to really try and make a change Wanna settle down, but this sh** is so confusin' I'm just goin' through a stage where I'm learnin' how to be brave f** a phase, this is life, all I need is me Look into my daughter's eyes and then I get the water eyes If I die, I pray to God she know her father tried, word.(Word, Word) [Hook] Cause we just wanna our lives Embraced faith, went against all odds In our eyes, to judge n***as, that is not our job To be a man, it is not that hard We gon' k** 'em with kindness When they try to take you out your comfort zone Ayo, it's time to be a man, understand, we gon' k** 'em with kindness And you know you gotta f**in' hold your own Can't let them take us away from the fam' We gon' k** 'em with kindness [Verse 2] Now I'm thinkin' in reality Actually, I was thinkin' 'bout stability I watched my single mother's feet hurt for years Just to barely pay the bills - I don't know, that sh**'s k**in' me But I don't wanna live like that Mama, I don't wanna see you live like that I told my little brothers we can build a new life For the ones that gave us life, we can give that back I know we tend to hold grudges I can't control it, I'm unfolding the emotion that I'm holdin' Hope the way I saw it ain't the way I won't approach it I'm just focused on the better me, this rap sh** is my pedigree Lately I've been feelin' life testin' me She say she down, and she say she wanna ride Release the need to please or be validated by eyes In disguise, I'm just focused on what makes me come alive I've learned not to take nothin' personal Bad environments have been my disadvantage Not tryna be accepted, it stepped me out of my box And now these n***as watch me like I got all of the answers But this is what I've built for myself Realistic, always had to keep it real with myself So when they talk, and it's negative or it's false We channel out the negative thoughts without any help [HooAnnotatek]
