Reflect (feat. Adrienne Williams)
Being a artist is pushing a message
Up and down every aisle but instead of taking off the shelf you add to them
Coming back to every aisle but add something different each time
Being an artist is more than the hollow life portrayed on social media and tv
Being an artist a true artist is above giving back
It's more than paint and pretty colors if about
Being worried about how your creation will effect others
It's about more than rhymes
Being a artist is about effecting time
Being an artist is like being a window
You allow anyone you intersect paths with unobstructed access
To the messages or personas you want to portray
Not for the mere purpose of likes or clout
But because you have the freedom and liberty to display
The uniqueness Of your personality
The serendipitously unapologetic essence of you
Say reflect the time but can I take the time
To search my mind and create the lines
And make each rhyme one of a kind
The years move forward but we stuck in time
Another man dead at the red and blue shine
They want us gone no matter dead or alive
Ain't do the crime but we gone time
So yell fuck the system till I see some change
See ten more blacks on the president page
See real black leaders with insta fame
So they their influence kids from a young age
In a few generations we can turn the page
Don't know who's life can I save today
Life get tough so I medicate it
When I'm leaning to the side don't hesitate
Pull 1 2 3 till my head is straight
Don't carry old problems that's yesterday's
Just leaving it at the door come chill wit me
Literally I don't know say
Cause they gone kill more us at end day
So there's no other way
Time to rise up start the revolution
Leave the cameras rollin
Time Grab the crowns and starts the restitutions
They try to decimate us,
We're really underestimated
Truly underrated.
Oh we are kings and queens
We'll stand and fight for our throne.
We won't stop until the war is won won, won
We want peace but we'll make war
To get the things we slaved for
We need politicians that's really black
That for the city ain't built wack
So we speak up and we stand for
It was Breonna Taylor but now I want more
So don't turn me down when I turn up
And get my dying declaration before burn it up
I try to avoid the fight then I ignite
In the of the night so I shine bright
If I fail do it again till I get it right
Smile big but Im not nice
If you wear a badge get no respect
I'm only starting out so I ain't done yet
I'ma fuck 'em up until my times up
Cuttin' rappers down when size me up
Got two blades so I'm extra safe
I sharpen 'em when I recite a page
Been studying for bout 6 years
Bout up shift and hit sixth gear
In fast lane so better get clear
Pushin 150 in a skyline
R34 runnin' cop lights
Pulled over hope I don't lose my life
God damn
They try to decimate us,
We're really underestimated
Truly underrated.
Oh we are kings and queens
We'll stand and fight for our throne.
We won't stop until the war is won won, won
They try to decimate us,
We're really underestimated,
Truly underrated.
We are kings and queens,
We'll fight for the throne.
We won't stop no we won't stop
Until the war is
