Lyrics

Look inside my mental with these instrumentals I assembled

I put my blood, pain and tears on the pad with this pencil

It's sentimental, I'm tryna keep the game on lock

But this key keeps getting jammed with the speed of this clock

Knock knock, time to kick down the door

It's time to make a new world no ones ever seen before

I'm just a blackbird with scars ready to sore

No matter how far, they said that

"the world is yours"

But it can be chore, with a target on your back

While the system is judging you on how you move and how you act

I block these snakes with the LT

Right trigger with the realness

Why every time I try to shoot my shot

They block me for the appearance

I guess with these lyrics, they wanna tear it down

Despite of the perseverance, they rather put you underground

But as the world goes round, I'll try to fly with ease

And grow like a tree with the knowledge that the Lord gave me to receive

Please, let me plant this seed, be aware of the Eve's

I hope my leaves don't turn to green of greed

The truth is forgotten while the lie is displayed

As the fruit has been bitten while it's rotting away

As I speak my piece for the west and the east

Let us bow down our heads and just have a little feast

In these times we live in, we don't know what might occur

It doesn't take a pastor to tell the world isn't pure

Now everybody put your hands up high

Keep them up high, to the sky, if y'all feeling the vibe

If you feeling alive, wanna survive and thrive

This is only the genesis for you and I

Now everybody put your hands up high

Keep them up high, to the sky, if y'all feeling the vibe

If you feeling alive, wanna survive and thrive

This is only the genesis for you and I

Only the genesis for you and I

Don't worry my friend, the pain will pass by

No matter how dark your days are, the sun will always shine

Despite how much they kick you down, it's time for you to rise

The world is full of stages and dark pages

But as your doing well, the devil offers you wages

Ain't no need stressing while we'll still looking for the blessing

Reminisce your essence to forever see your lesson

I got the needle on the vinyl, hear the words of Malcolm

It been too many years for us finding the outcome

But as we're still lost in the darkest of days

I pray we find the light and escape out of this maze

As I memorize these piano keys within this melody

To paint a better picture, as these walls are telling me

To stay focus, don't fall into no hocus pocus

Don't fall into the dark place that people think it's all precious

I do this for the passion, not the lights flashing action

I'm no main attraction, I'm just brother that's not acting

I don't need to be a gangsta to rap

I kick the knowledge in your brain the government won't tap

It's like I've been living in a correctional state of mind

Am I falling behind or am I over the line?

Surrounded by these dark shadows hiding in the gallows

Wanting me to sell my soul to make me feel hollow

But I'm an hard act to follow

I got God on my side, ain't no need for feeling sorrow

Contradicting on my roots, while your busy acting shallow

As time passes by, you'll be front row at the Apollo

Now everybody put your hands up high

Keep them up high, to the sky, if y'all feeling the vibe

If you feeling alive, wanna survive and thrive

This is only the genesis for you and I

Now everybody put your hands up high

Keep them up high, to the sky, if y'all feeling the vibe

If you feeling alive, wanna survive and thrive

This is only the genesis for you and I

Only the genesis for you and I

Don't worry my friend, the pain will pass by

No matter how dark your days are, the sun will always shine

Despite how much they kick you down, it's time for you to rise

I write these lyrics for broken spirits, praying that they can hear it

Never fear it, embrace yours, don't silent like a cricket

Inspired by the OGs who rep how they feel

Instead of these bigots with gimmicks that ain't even real

Dre taught me the beats, Nas taught me how to preach

And Pac taught me to stand up for my people and the weak

I may be small, but one day I'll be Biggie

Have you hypnotized by my rhyme then bop like Diddy

I'm tryna be on point like Phife, R.I.P. to the legends

To the Gurus and the Prodigies that taught us the lesson

Of how a weapon can cause disaster for someone to be a bastard

And how the world is full of pain, joy and laughter

Despite how rap has taken a turn

Let's open a new chapter for the world to learn

One time for your mind, forever divine

It's Hip Hop, nonstop, now let the track rewind

Now everybody put your hands up high

Keep them up high, to the sky, if y'all feeling the vibe

If you feeling alive, wanna survive and thrive

This is only the genesis for you and I

Now everybody put your hands up high

Keep them up high, to the sky, if y'all feeling the vibe

If you feeling alive, wanna survive and thrive

This is only the genesis for you and I

Only the genesis for you and I

Don't worry my friend, the pain will pass by

No matter how dark your days are, the sun will always shine

Despite how much they kick you down, it's time for you to rise
