about

Meh. Capitalism.

lyrics

Walls closing in
Let the games begin
Am I gonna win?
Or give it all up again
Can't look like, a sell out
Can't walk around with hands out
I'm 29 now
Nigga get down or lay down
Either imma give up
And show my kids I ain't have what have what it takes to live up
To all the expectations I that I put up on myself
I can't do that to my wife, I can't do that to myself
Nah.
I done worked too fuckin hard
Truth, I ain't never picture myself on boulevards
Yeah, uh maybe that's the problem all along
Maybe gotta envision Gucci suits or money long
Maybe nigga gotta get a bank roll
Not to pay off credit cards or bank loans
Not to pay off Navient or make clothes
But shine like them niggas in the A do
How much for grill?
Maybe if I really want it, I can make a Mil
A mili, mili, a mili, up in the case
Fuck is you gon' say, my nigga, I made it rain

Holy, Holy
Don't let go of me
I'm gon win now
Don't let me down

Holy, Holy
Can't control me
I'm gon win now
That's my story

Young Black Man
Hustle like I'm livin in a trash can
But I ain't never learn how
I just make goals that I pin down
They ain't never have a dollar
Attached to it, nigga this ain't slavery, I'm sorry
But excuses sounding iffy
If I ain't never have it, boy I got it in me lawd
I feel like Drake
World watching, boy I cannot make not one mistake
Playing all my cards like I'm on elimidate
And if I don't get it right, nigga I don't eat cake
And everybody like cake
Even if they don't really wanna see how it's made
Even if they already got too much on they plate
That's the reason [Re] Publicans protecting estates
Shit, then they wanna call it death tax
Shit make me sick, make me wanna take an ex-lax
Still shittin' bricks, sitting on a thumb tac
Cuz my niggas still trynna get their funds back
How much for the repo?
HR 40 ever year, since Conyers for the people
McConnell sell it to your base
So one day all your niggas can say that you made it, rain

Holy, Holy
Don't let go of me
I'm gon' win now
Don't let me down

Holy, Holy
Can't control me
I'm gon win now
That's my story

Take my Hand
