They Say lyrics

by

Wale


[Intro]
They say, they say grey is the new black

[Verse 1]
Too many fake, too many lie, too many blot
Too many jealous, too many want what others got
A lot of poor, a lot of rich, what is the gift?
In order to eat we taking war, hell of a risk
The other side, the grass is greener than kush
Shot the nose of the Sphinx but didn't leave it in Kush
Used our history against us, the liquor store that they put
In the hood got lines everyday in front of it, look
Mira, ass-shots on a chica
sh*t is up to our nostrils, started out knee high
You see why it's f*ck the government, a free mind
Can travel wherever, even allow you to see blind
Was behind, still feel like I'm catching up
Had a decline, caught in the lies they gave to us
Who were we before slaves? Kings and queens
We had 'em before Jay: dynasties
But they can't hide the son from the mother, we know the voice
The vibration'll make us make a, make a better choice
Thought they was dropping jewels like bird sh*t
But one ear, out the other, inside them words went

[Hook:] x2
I don't care what they used to say
I don't care what they used to say
They hate but they should pray for me
They don't know me or my destiny
[Verse 2:]
It amazes me how you all are scared to lead
While you're waiting for your savior, he lives in me
While you're waiting for your savior, he lives in you
But knowing they crucify those who speak the truth
Got you hesitant, I guess cause you all fear death
But won't know until you see, see for yourself
A little easier for me, I met the Grim Reaper
Refused to go, he said, "To stay, you gotta teach 'em"
Compromise a little and they say that you're reaching
To each its own, but be careful where you lead them
They said, "Do this, do that," but I ain't listen
Was told follow my soul, either that, or be a victim
These n*ggas are followers following other followers
Street account verified, should block all of you
They used to say I wasn't, started calling what I was
It ain't about who he is, it's about what he does
What you saying?

[Hook]

They hate but they should pray for me
