Verse 1
These are the times that remind me what the realness is
The kinda feeling that we had when we were little kids
Time flies in the fundamental instances
Now everybody all up in each other’s businesses
Take me back to the times of the sentiment
I just want to zone in my element
And experiment to experience
I’m just a kid trying to put together sentences
Chorus
Five steps ahead of me
I breathe heavily
Fly to the melody
Why? It’s a necessity
Life speed killing me
Time to think critically
So I can speak every line
In the enemy’s eye
To the end of me
I to the S and we
Try to develop the
Vibe so you feel the beat
High off the energy
Why give me any advice
When it’s every time
We perpetually rise
Verse 2
I get lost in the hustle and bustle
The muscle of the operation without consideration of the
Paradigm that I’m feeding
Need to be cognizant
Cog in the wheel man
That’s what the problem is
Wish we would do less and we would do better
Sometimes I can’t even function
And fuck an INTRODUCTION
Let’s get into something
We don’t have time to watch
With our ETHICS in mind I thought that
We were free spirits
But we’re blinded by the light switch
White kids, different experience
We can turn it off
So complacent
Still claim that you’re not racist
But turn to oppressed people for explanation
The DICHOTOMY, I’m trying to be as strong as I can be
And I don’t need you unless you love me
Shed the skin, faith battling phobia
Fight the current, swimming the oceans to EUDAEMONIA
