Alright alright, here it go
If ion know you don't talk to me
If you don't talk to me you don't know me
Couple friends but not too many homies
I been plenty lonely all my life
I been tryna deal
With what's real in the black plight
I'm still tryna deal
With my friends being killed, but it's alright
I Remember it was days
I ain't wanna see the next night
Remember parked car conversations
When she stayed all the way til the next night
Remember hitting push ups and shoulder presses
Preparing for parrys in me and father next fight
Remember standing on one forty first
With Jay in the sunlight
Remember when they locked my cousin up
Cause he let it spray and won the gun fight
Remember burning my black back
Running on that red and black track
My head was fogged, I couldn't run right
Tell my momma it's above her now
Tell my granny that I love her now
Tell my granny that I love her now
Tell my momma it's above her now
Tell my momma it's above her now
Tell my granny that I love her now
Tell my momma it's above her now
I know the life I live is wild
And I know you can't believe that this your son
But I'm standing on my ten toes now
Momma be having a hard time breathing and shit
Daddy can barely see or hear now
I fear how shit will be when I'm gone
Cause I am indeed leaving this bitch
Stars are born in pairs like fucking Lilo and Stitch
But they die alone
With that being said, when I'm dead and gone
I hope I'm actually missed
Remember the teacher asking what's wrong
After the whole class was dismissed
Or when she laughed in my face
And I spazzed on her shit
Ion got no problem spazzing on a Karen in front of some friends
Used to scribble this rap shit for fun in Thursday classes
Now my shit bring people together like Easter Sunday masses
Hallway passes and twin size mattresses
Hooping and tracking now I see was distractions
I was often ashamed of my blackness
But not no more, not no more
