[Intro]
Even when you see your skies are grey
Pick your head up look at the horizon (red light, red light)
Sometimes you gotta find your way
Pick you head up look at the horizon
(Yeah, this is actually in both, both headphones)
Cause we shine bright light like the Sun
Understand where you from
Just pick your head up look at the horizon
Cause we shine bright light like the Sun
Understand where you from
Just pick your head up look at the horizon
[Verse 1]
Boy meets world, you watching rose grow out the concrete
Right through the sidewalk
Ducking Darth Vaders, inhaling vapors got us sky walk
Through the valley of the of the shadow death
Regaining my steps, barely got away
I'm catching my breath
We are vanity slaves, some how some way
Insanity weighs on the brains of that poor and adolescence
Turn off the news man, that sh*t be mad depressing
Free thinking in the streets get you both locked in the cage
Turn around and kill our kind for profit
Is it white man economics, or Reagonomics?
Corner stores ain't owned by n*ggas man they rape our pockets
Trying to keep faith like the late, great Christopher Wallace
Smoking Newports sipping still reserved tall cans
Crumbling herb, ripping through trees like I was Tarzan
The Jungle Book playing Jumanji, Marvin the Martian
Alienated, well orchestrated, hate our own skin
Stokley Carmichael with assault rifles, assault rivals, and hand Wes like I'm a small fightful
They lost spiteful and they don't like you
Racially profile while there are more violence
No guidance, no father figure
n*gga no tolerance, this is some survival sh*t
Do or die sh*t, who conspired it
HIV/AIDS, CIA science project
But y'all don't hear me
[Hook]
Oh, my feet's on solid ground today
I wanna see, I wanna see you ride on one
Over horizon
I see the sun
Oh, this water I can wade
[Verse 2]
It's a bird, it's a plane, no it's just Billy
Silly really on that bike
Still popping wheelies on that ten speed
Boy, you ain't going nowhere
You like a n*gga in a wheelchair tryna get up the stairs
Well if so, I play Professor X
Cover your mind as if my thoughts was taking next
Miss Molly, have you seen her? No, I never met her
Heard she got around and soon we'll forget her
Trinny things like Trinidad what's his name
I just get it, got it good, wish a n*gga would
I'm from another planet where the managers don't manage
And employees don't give a damn, I sit down on that one
Witness may I have a stand on that one
Got digger no hand on that one
So I just keep on going with my left-right foot
87, [?] looks like
[Hook]
