So these days every clip is comin' fully loaded
Can't take no chances 'cause this world done got me claustrophobic
The government gone play they hand
But they gon' sugarcoat it
But cops beatin' up the ones who got they freedom stolen
I see the pain in all them people
I can't help but notice
My granny said them heavy pressures ain't for us
To tote it
Give it to God, you know I'm tryin'
But some of my thoughts corroded
Sometimes I wanna say just fuck it all, I need a moment
I know you pray I don't succeed some people waitin' on it
But as I walk through the valley in the shadow and death
Know every weapon formed against me was the test to myself
This song may never do a thing but the intention was there
Pray for Haiti
I been on this journey alone, I know nobody gon' save me
I can never fathom the fears that people livin' in daily
White man swingin' a switch style that image is crazy
Back in 70's, back in slavery
When my ancestors showed us what was bravery
Keep an army, like the navy
Go out bustin' if I must protect the babies
I ain't gon' lie before I start this shit here too traumatic
So many people gone in seconds from this COVID action
And these days I'm feelin' lower than my normal fashion
If I'm not alignin' with my purpose
I'm not fully happy
I get this shit here from a source
And you can't mirror match it
Ain't nothin' realer than me healin' up this mental damage
Everyone vanished, I didn't panic, just up the standards
Without the hype of a major label still did heavy traction
Did all that cappin' 'bout your album
Shit was barely average
I like my income when it's passive and my life lavish
That loyalty went out the window once they took advantage
I ain't gon' lie, what's on my plate, now I can barely manage
My independent plate bigger than my last palate
Livin' on my practice, alpha linin' on some private island
Really I'm breathin', coppin' mine and them chakras alignin'
Pray for Haiti
I been on this journey alone, I know nobody gon' save me
I can never fathom the fears that people livin' in daily
White man swingin' a switch style that image is crazy
Pray for Haiti
