Lift Me Up

Hey, I'm just a **** until I fill my pockets

And then I'm Mr. ****, they follow me while shoppin'

I feel like Mickey Richards, they feel like Muddy Waters

So tell me what's the difference, so tell me what's the difference

My momma was a Christian, crip walkin' on blue waters

Was fadin' up in Davis, then walkin' back to Palmer

A fro like Huey partner, Auntie Angie had them choppers

So tell me what's the difference, so tell me what's the difference

(Alright)

I feel like fuck Versace, they rapin' ****'s pockets

And we don't get acknowledged, just thank me for the profit

A prophet just like Moses, if Moses look like Shaka

Zulu, my 4-4 loaded, I'm aimin' at Nirvana

My bitch look like Madonna, they starin' at katana

Waiter still ain't brought the chopsticks, should have brought the chopper

Uber driver in the cockpit look like Jeffrey Dahmer

But he lookin' at me crazy when we pull up to the projects

See, this weight is on my shoulders, pray Jehovah lift me up

And my pain is never over, pills and potions fix me up

I just want to live it up, can a motherfucker breathe?

Life ain't always what it seems, so please just lift me up

Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up

Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up

Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up

(Say it, mate)

We love our neighborhood, so all my brothers bang the hood

I never vote for presidents, the presidents that change the hood

Is dead and green, was standin' on this mezzanine in Paris, France

Finna spaz 'cause most my homies never finna get this chance

All these white folks chanting when I asked 'em where my **** at?

Goin' crazy, got me goin' crazy, I can't get wit' that

Wonder if they know, I know they won't go where we kick it at

Ho, this shit ain't Gryffindor, we really killin', kickin' doors

Fight between my conscious and the skin that's on my body

Man, I need to fight the power but I need that new Ferrari

Man, I breathe in, bleed this, Poppy Street

I shot them guns 'cause talk is cheap

Bow your head and pray, okay, now walk wit' me

See, this weight is on my shoulders, pray Jehovah lift me up

And my pain is never over, pills and potions fix me up

I just want to live it up, can a motherfucker breathe?

(Can a motherfucker breathe?)

Life ain't always what it seems, so please just lift me up

Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up

Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up

Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, lift me up

(Alright)
