Feel like they misunderstand me

Feel like we're misunderstood

Know it might seem like we're anti

But we're just paranoid kids from the hood

Tryna make peace with my family

From no guap to financially free

Know you feel like the man when you're up

Let's see how you handle defeat

But there's no time for fanning your feet, let's go

I don't wanna hold back on the love

But man take kindness for weakness though

But it's to each their own

Whoever don't hear must feel

I try reaching my goals

I'm ghosting whoever don't help us build

Come a long way from days when we used to kick ball in the cage

Snowball games on the block

But man move hot on the corner with apes

Back when I was sporting a fade

Praying the waves come quickly

How my durag gone on the day

Can't think there ain't A1 link me

Got the same ones with me

Outside with my bredrin adjacent

Weren't with me on the curb

They think they were friends, they're getting mistaken

I ask God to protect me

But especially when I step on the pavement

When it's said and it's done

Will you open the gates or send me to Satan?

Anywhere I look, temptation

But I can't see what I can't be

When it's understood foundation

To invest in a chance to be

Feel like they misunderstand me

Feel like we're misunderstood

Know it might seem like we're anti

But we're just paranoid kids from the hood

Tryna make peace with my family

From no guap to financially free

Know you feel like the man when you're up

Let's see how you handle defeat

Yo, don't ask why the beat is crying

It might feel like the reaper's flying

Or when Adam and Eve went silent

You woke up to the keys and sirens

But that can never be me inside it

You see this mission is deep and I like it

Since eighteen I was trying to fight it

Like why me? Does it have to be like this?

I can't sit still in a crisis

Yeah I can speak but I'm really the shy kid

I had a dream my mother was psychic

Gave me a key, the door was the right fit

Can't act like I don't know what life is

Mmm, use your brain and imagine the scenes G

It's okay if you panic immediately

You know pain if you're happy to see me

If you ain't then you're probably doing a dance

With it now and this track's on repeat

You might be just like me

How I blew for a patty you would think it was meaty

Look, I don't give a shit if you think it's depressing

But clearly I did or I wouldn't have said it

And that's how I know who the beg is

I know when you're begging it

Bit of soul and you're selling it

After it all I don't wanna regret this shit

It's beginning to get this bit

Anywhere I look, temptation

But I can't see what I can't be

When it's understood foundation

To invest in a chance to be

Anywhere I look, temptation

But I can't see what I can't be

When it's understood foundation

To invest in a chance to be

But I can't see what I can't be
