Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Frequent flyer miles
Got my demons playing catch up
Only **** in first class
Du rag matching my leather
Pride matching my get up
ACW my sweater
Denim, I pair together black-owned
I spend it better than most
A lion don't leave the jungle by choice
And when it was time to speak up, you was losing your voice
Proving your noise only came from empty barrels, annoys me if I'm honest
So many did it for clout until they got it, can we be honest?
Really be honest? When court of public opinion keep people fearing the judgement
What's really keeping you from it? Really keeping from it?
You speak, you say you want it? For real? Then why you running for real?
[Verse 2]
You say you stressed, man I was stressed too
You say you next, man, I was next too
I know the wrongs that you said yes to
Deep in depression, I was dead too
I can't go back to
Feeling like I wanna die
Feeling like I'll never fly
Can a real **** touch the sky?
I can't go back to
Feeling like I wanna die
Feeling like I'll never fly
Can a real **** testify?
[Verse 3]
Clocking in and clocking out
They was sleepy, now they see, I'm topic now
I might drop another CD, start another drought
Wonder why never they see me, I was never 'round
I was working, I was working, doing overtime
Got me feeling like I'm Marvin back in' 69
Too busy thinking bout my baby in the summer time
Too busy feeling a **** can't get nothing right
[Verse 4]
I lost friends, I lost pride
I lost money, I lost hope
Mama bills on the table
I see pills on the floor
I see blood on wall
Uncle dying at the door
I see pain in our people
I know we might see some more
Been a slave to the kitty
I've seen homies turn to foe
I saw brothers on a high
Turn to fiends on the floor
Take my soul into war
Take my scars, let 'em show
If this it, then let 'em know
Let 'em know
[Verse 5]
I can't go back to
Feeling like I wanna die
Feeling like I'll never fly
Can a real **** touch the sky?
I can't go back to feeling like I wanna die
Feeling like I'll never fly
Can a real **** testify?
