Wasn't always times that a... nigga thought this way, h'yeah
Momma went to jail, hm
Came out as a maid, damn
Broke my fuckin' heart, heart - trauma scar my brain, no
Niggas went to war, mm
Poppa called me king, chief
Then he lost his pops, Drake - nothin' was the same
I'd... never witnessed lost, and he... never lost the pain
And it... trickled down to me
Now I... carry all this weight of the family tree - of the family legacy! (Uh, uh)
I gotta scream at the weather to keep it together
My mothers' expectin' for me to get better, my daddy expectin' a man
I got a brother who writin' exams, in a couple of years he gon' need him a college
Aware that the payment of fees is my problem
For him and two more in the seasons to follow (Hi Ray! Hi Ray! Hi Ray!)
I dare you to try 'em, I clickity clap!
Bullets from soldiers who roll with the strap!
Made us a milli a couple of years ago, I'll be the one who gon' run that shit back!
I ain't gon' fail, that's on figgidy facts!
Put 'em to sleep, I ain't takin' no naps!
263rd I'ma place on the map!
How you expect me to fuckin' relax, nigga? (Hummina hummina, mmm... yeah)
Momma see the pain inside my... eyes
Why she tell me shit gon' be okay?
How she always know what's on my... mind
Why'd I see her cry before she... pray?
I can't ever bear to let her... go
I don't ever wanna see the... day
She say "keep them worries off your... soul"
Why she tell me shit gon' be okay?
We gon' be alright
(Na-na-na-na-na)
We gon' be alright
(Na-na-na-na-na-na)
We gon' be alright
(Na-na-na-na-na)

We gon'...
I been told, Taliban control, emerald and gold
I been told, 'Ghanistan'll blow, everybody dome
I been shown, images of slain, it's half the story told
I won't fold - CNN control, everything we know
In this world, 'Merica withhold military codes
I been told, every men are trash, suicidal prone
(I been cold, why my brothers gone, suicidal prone)
Never slows, girls want us to go, and it fuckin' shows
Nowadays, niggas don't need phones, just to load the Chrome!
I been told give myself to God, lest I die in hell
Thought he loved unconditionally? 'Less I try and fail
In this life... I ain't ask to live - born without a say
Now the coals s'pposed to burn me whole forever and a day
I been told not to judge a soul, so the pastor say
Yet the girl sellin' pussy juice... she was cast away
Yet the man shmokin' dhululu... he done past away
Fastin' forward, preacher swung his sword, constitutin' pain
Could've sworn, Jesus hung with whores, prostitutes and lames?
So I claim on my mother's name, I'ma do the same
After K. Dot and Cole Jermaine, start to mention Ray
I don't know when the government... finish tellin' fibs
I don't know how yo' God can watch niggas sellin' kids
But I won't! I don't feel the same, I don't feel a thang!
Too much pain! Motherfuck yo' gang, and the shit you bang!
Kazzy...
Blessings unfold but I can't see no change
Stress on my soul, but it's gon' be okay
Lessen my load, Lord I be DOA
Weapons unload, they R.I.P. yo' fate
Learnin' to deal, but I don't see no signs
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
Turnin' the wheel, they'll find me DOA
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
Slowly but sure, we all gon' be alright
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
Day at a time, we all gon' be okay
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
State of affairs they don't leave me no say
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
World in my palm and I'ma prove you wrong
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
It's the way that it is but we gon' be okay
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
Learnin' to deal, but I don't see no signs
(Na-na-na-na-na)
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
Turnin' the wheel, they'll find me DOA
(Na-na-na-na-na-na... na-na-na-na-na)

Slowly but sure, we all gon' be alright

Day at a time, we all gon' be okay
