Y’all rather go viral than to pray
Sanctified, saving face
Testify, run away
Rep my side, everyday
On my mama bruh I threw my pride away
On my mama bruh I threw my pride away
Had a dream, there was no more fear of failing (who you telling?!)
Had a dream, there was no more fear of failing (who you telling?!)
Had a dream, there was no more fear of failing (who you telling?!)
Had a dream, there was no more fear of failing (who you telling?!)
Had a dream, there was no more fear of failing (who you telling?!)
Had a dream I wasn’t running to the reverend (who you telling?!)
Had a dream I wasn’t looked at as a second (who you telling?!)
Had a dream I wasn’t doubted for a second

Yesterday the cops they pulled me over on some fuckery
Asking for my license registration what you want from me
I just got off work and left store to get some groceries
My homie in the passenger he tripping he just know the street
He don’t wanna hear that
Step out the Cadillac
Hands behind a nigga back
Hands on his strap fear now how he gon react
Wonder if I’m getting back
To the hood where the family at
Will I end up on the news as another nigga dead because the cops only seen black
I just drink the pain away I feel like ain’t no hope for me
Drowning in this bottle call some hoes
That’s tryna roll with me
Take her to the crib and if she with it let her blow on me
Forget about the… fear of failing all my dreams compelling me

I’m gon talk my shit, I heard it’s therapeutic
I can’t be no slave I come from a ruler, how they do you?
You don’t want me to be me?, I heard it’s exclusive
Y’all hold onto our freedom make it real elusive
Have a nigga run in place, Y’all be good with all the space
Imma run up in your place, Y’all over here living, We just trying to get taste!
Ain’t that what rats do?!?, They say I’m agressive, They say that I’m cashews
Put on my last shoes, Run where I ran Ain’t a nigga can lap you
They will attack you, You speaking the truth, And them people will Kaep you
Gimme your ID!, You moving too fast, And them people will cap you
Ain’t a surprise, They learn to capitalize, We learn to marginalize
Come from the gutter, They gon' be scared when we rise, When we gon' reach for
the skies…(yea)
