Ratio

Ahh, I need to see some ID please!

Want brighter future but we all hurting getting ahead is a beast
10 men in a circle way more than fatherless homes or get killed by police
Want brighter future but we all hurting getting ahead is a beast
10 men in a circle way more than fatherless homes or get killed by police

Here to point out a problem
Just do it like Nike
Contrary to popular belief, your ID ain't your ID
What they say about me?
What do I say about me?
I ain't my past, yesterday about me
Talk to Jesus, I pray about me
Ay! I got a story, I got a mission
Made in the image and it's specific
You may be similar but not exactly we different
And thats perfect
What the news say? You heard it
They whispering, you worthless
Oh you learned that? Well, unlearn it
Might move slower, they think they got me
It's bout how many hits you take while moving forward
Shoutout to Rocky, who gonna stop me?
Ay, tell the trash man pick up your radio
Finna make these odds even
Working overtime on the ratio

Want brighter future but we all hurting getting ahead is a beast
10 men in a circle way more than fatherless homes or get killed by police
Want brighter future but we all hurting getting ahead is a beast
10 men in a circle way more than fatherless homes or get killed by police

26% the rest saying mother may I
The only ID that I got, Imago Dei
No contact with the questions but they flop, can't say why
I'ma give The Way, Give The Answer, yeah that AI
Can't erase me with a badge, gun, ill motives, call up the POTUS
Super and glue for the broken, man ain't nothing but fuel for this locomotive
And there is still a Father to the fatherless
Evil don't want it obvious
Media feeding us sugar and fat
Want us malnutritioned and starving us
But the ones you think you burying are just seeds bringing more trees
Bringing more fruit, and we at attention 'til we at ease yeah
Costs too much to put my people down, I put em on
And the only lynchings that I wanna see is sin and student loans

Want brighter future but we all hurting getting ahead it's a beast
10 men in a circle way more than fatherless homes or get killed by police
Want brighter future but we all hurting getting ahead it's a beast
10 men in a circle way more than fatherless homes or get killed by police
