Not Today
[Intro: (Allan Watts)]
Those moments when life really seems to be taking us away
The moment of death, and we think, uhoh, this is it
This is the end
[Chorus: Lox Chatterbox]
They want me in my grave, but not today, not today
They want me locked away, but not today, not today
They want me in a cage, but not today, not today
They want me in my grave, in my grave
Imma tell em, I'm tryna lay low, underground
Sittin’ back and watch the world go around
I'm tryna lay low, underground
But they wanna see my body on the ground
[Verse 1: Lox Chatterbox]
They want me dead, I understand, bitch, I'm the worst
Takin’ my breathe, want me to drown, keep me submerged
Up on a ledge, praying I jump, getting the Hearst
Bottles on ice, ready to celebrate I'm in the dirt, uh
They want my eyelids closed, they want me silenced though, nope
They want to lie to me, try and deny me, what I ever do to society though?
Waving goodbye to me, discarding and hiding me, some think that it's irony
I got a lot of shit I need to say before they come and body me
(Hold up)
[Chorus: Lox Chatterbox]
They want me in my grave, but not today, not today
They want me locked away, but not today, not today
They want me in a cage, but not today, not today
They want me in my grave, in my grave
Imma tell em, I'm tryna lay low, underground
Sittin' back and watch the world go around
I'm tryna lay low, underground
But they wanna see my body on the ground
[Verse 2: Blvkstn]
Fuck what you heard, fuck what you heard
When I die put me 6 feet under earth
'Til then the whole planet is my turf
Imma do and say, whatever I want, that's for sure - word
They want me in an early grave
They always wanna fill my space
They always wanna take my place
I’m the shit, I can never be erased
[Chorus: Lox Chatterbox]
They want me in my grave, but not today, not today
They want me locked away, but not today, not today
They want me in a cage, but not today, not today
They want me in my grave, in my grave
Imma tell em, I’m tryna lay low, underground
Sittin' back and watch the world go around
I’m tryna lay low, underground
But they wanna see my body on the ground
[Verse 3: Lox Chatterbox]
Look at the sky, look at the doctor, look at the bank
Look at the law, look at the shit that you got on your plate
I think they misleading us, and people with power are devious, yup
I look at the screen and it's, media trying to make me believe in it
They don't care about our feelings, 1%'s try and kills us
Putting poison in our dinners but it don’t really hurt my feelings
They don't give a fuck about us, comfortable up in their office
Wanna see us dead and never prosperous (True)
[Chorus: Lox Chatterbox]
They want me in my grave, but not today, not today
They want me locked away, but not today, not today
They want me in a cage, but not today, not today
They want me in my grave, in my grave
Imma tell em, I'm tryna lay low, underground
Sittin' back and watch the world go around
I'm tryna lay low, underground
But they wanna see my body on the ground
