Running from the Midnight

All I ever had was a dream and a quarter
I be eva get fo' hammer
Tire of seeing my sweet Mama ride okada
Driven by pain, passion, and some frivolous desires whoa!

Get money, get more money
For quick fixes and some diamonds in my chains
I figured out a million ways to make a million in a day
But that's a million different ways to get killed or put away

They tell me drive slow, embrace the process that's the sh*t that makes you
Stay out the system ma na that shit was built to break you
Its bad enough I want better, but its worse waiting forever
At the intersection for the right direction I pray

Lord can you hear me, hear me?
My back's against the wall and the devil's tryna get me, get me
My heart's getting heavy, heavy
My mind's a loaded semi and I'm feeling super deadly

In my tims and my hoodie on, two stepping
Running from the midnight
Super dealy in my tims and my hoodie on, two stepping
Running from the midnight

Running from the...
Running, running, running

For a shot at a better life I had to turn to immigration
Rocking black and white diamonds is my fk you to segreggation
Smoking on that loud, supper lifted free from gravity and all the negativity
I be in the clouds conversating with the younger me, contemplating on my strategy

To make it through another night
See another sunrise
Do better than just survive
Take actions I can justify

That's why you hear me pray

Lord can you hear me, hear me?
My back's against the wall and the devil's tryna to get me, get me
My heart's getting heavy, heavy
My mind's a loaded semi and I'm feeling super deadly

In my tims and my hoodie on, two stepping
Running from the midnight
Super dealy in my tims and my hoodie on, two stepping
Running from the midnight

Running from the...
Running, running, running
Running from the...
