Lyrics

I must be talkin' to brick walls
Nobody listens — they prefer the veil
Truth be told, this world feels like unending hell
So why not swallow them pills?
Drinks at the parties — who wanna feel?
In this rat race, love gets misplaced
I've been travelin' for like a hundred hours
Battlin' planes, battlin' time zones' power
Misunderstood, so I'd rather block
Why even talk? We ignore the white chalk
Another brother got shot on my block
But all these brick walls still move along
I'm speakin' truth through veils —
Its too cold in my brothers jail cell
I'm spittin at walls in the after hours
These streets way too cold in those bullet showers
You wanna hear a new story?
Jasmine just bought a Benzo
Her boyfriend got stabbed in the pen tho
Did you see the news?
Marcus finally landed a job at McDonald's
His baby sister started filing for WIC tho
Ronald left her with four kids bro
It's so easy to blame the white man
But we were sold a lie long before the Klan
"I'll cut you a deal — if you sell out your hood
You'll be wealthy, dine with kings, livin' good."
White picket fence, burnin' them crosses
Polo shirts, playin' golf with real bosses
Don't need a moral compass —
You'll skip the grind
Roll in comfort, Rolls-Royce reclined
Don't need to look back — your future's fine
Momma taught me always care for my kin
But how often do we forget our own skin?
I'm speakin' truth through veils —
Its too cold in these street sells
I'm spittin at walls in the after hours
These streets way too cold in those bullet showers
You wanna hear a new story?
Jamal just skipped bail, bro
He should have took the plea deal
But his soul aint for sell tho
I'm getting collect calls
(Did you put money on my books?)
Told me he's changin his ways
It's getting harder to believe him
Did you see the news?
Armani got her car out the shop
Cherry-red Beemer with the drop-top
Scammin them checks still paying well
Brothers pulling up in new charger sells
Living clean, flexin on front street
While charging broken fiends
High school dropouts with Bentley dreams
Martins been couch surfin ever since his teens
Ran away from home (searchin for a quick meal)
Said he's looking for work (but playin games still)
Practicin on the court (wishin for Draft deals)
He just spent his last check (on new black grills)
Ill give him credit he's (never been black pilled)
I'm speakin' truth through veils —
Its too cold in my brothers jail cell
I'm spittin at walls in the after hours
These streets way too cold in those bullet showers
You wanna hear a new story?
I'm speakin' truth —
You wanna hear a new story?
I'm speakin' truth —
You wanna hear a new story?
I'm speakin' truth —
These streets way too cold in those bullet showers
