Lyrics
Life of a ghost, live in theatres
Life of an artist, a friend, we all need one
Life of a poet, don't want to show it
Marvelous, art but too shy to release em
Do it for me, I don't do it for threesomes
Therapy sessions the tunes that I'm writing
Writing for you, writing for me
Writing for us, live a moment of freedom
I gotta do my due daily and feed em
I gotta do my due daily and free em
Fighting for you, fighting for us
Fighting for all of my people, I need em
Do what it takes on my way there I'll see em
Do what you want on my way that I tell em
Fighting for us, it's fighting for them
It's fighting for all of the people who need em
Rockabye, my baby
Yeah, they biting the hand of the nigga that feed em
Like the weeds in my garden, don't need em
No don't let the seeds blossom into some freedom
Now the kids don't got nobody to feed em
Like in poverty, no one to teach em
When their father just get up and leave em
But when someone decided to shoot em
Lie em down, we ain't never gon' see em
Give me money, I'll sell you your freedom
All the slaves in the system don't see em
All the ones that ain't willing to free em
Pick up the scraps, cause the beggars can never be choosers
So get up and stand up to these losers
Got no life and they shooting your futures
Like a bomb, I might need to defuse it
Stay attached to your life like a tumor, like a cancer
I need answers, why these niggas shooting like they dancers
We get high so go get me a planter
Roll up blunt, we sit down and we banter, and banter
Ego aside, put up a sign
Put up with a fakes like a mannequin
Pull up, now they started panicking, uh
Work for the cause and not for the applause
Breaking the laws, I'm not proud of it
But there's no dodging it, I gotta do what I got
The system is fucked so I'm moving about
Until I get caught, there's no switching the route
Credentials are faux, they hopped on a boat
They hopped for a moment of hope, for freedom
But coming to meet em is people with freedom galore
With morals below,
Fighting for the people who lost
That been there before, yeah I'ma speak and be the voice
For me it's not even a choice, man fuck all the noise
I do it, you can keep your coins
