Why you going upward huh?

Unh

Watching all these people fall, watching all these people change

For money and them strange things

I been really out the way, they tryna talk I'm not today

She be tryna conversate, I tell her that shit complicated

Oh lord, this shit is crazy, they been lying lately

Yeah lord, they kill our babies I been crying lately

How the fuck they say I'm racist when we dying daily

Pain coming, feel it in the air, I smell that rain come

Say they love me then they switch and try

To strip my name from me, my people with me

I done took some losses, some I can't remember

They hated on me, that **** lost me I can't fake it with him

No, no-no-no

Watching all these people fall, watching all these people change

For money and them strange things

My people tryna find a way

They want the truth, got time today

Ain't feeling like I use to ooh, I been hurting, I been oh so through

Everybody smokin' now, I'm tryna what that about

If they was me, they shooting now, I tell 'em cut that capping out

I got big clouds all over my head

Big clouds and they raining on me

They say one day it's gon' change

I say I'm waiting on it

I wear this crown like a king

They can't take it from me

No, no-no-no

Watching all these people fall, watching all these people change

For money and them strange things

My people tryna find a way

They want the truth, got time today

I got big clouds all over my head

Big clouds and they raining on me

Just wanna help my people make it

No wonder why these people hate me

Strange fruit up in these trees

Can't dap 'em, we just leave 'em hanging

I got big clouds all over my head

Big clouds and they raining on me

Just wanna help my people make it

No wonder why these people hate me

Strange fruit up in these trees

Can't dap 'em, we just leave 'em hanging

We gon' smoke

We gon' smoke (Strange fruit up in these trees, can't dap 'em, we just leave 'em hanging)

Smoke (We gon' smoke)

I got big clouds all over my head

Big clouds and they raining on me

I just wanna help my people out

The big, big clouds
