A New Dawn

I wonder why, I feel dead inside
Soul in the music, never tellin lies
That's somethin they despise
My execution, televised
Can't fuck with the other side
Them other guys, totally spies
Lookin at the mirror see a man in disguise
I see yo eyes it's a whole ass lie
How it feel to see my momma cry?
To hear i'm not alive from some other guy
Why am I, thinkin what if this the last time she see me
Never gave a fuck about pricetags on beanies
Never gave a fuck the love is there if you need me
Never gave a fuck, hope she don't see me
Cry, you let me out the nest i'm supposed to fly
When you black and you young you supposed to die
That's what they told us if we ain't meet they quotas
Promise to hold us when weather gets coldest
And the snow shifts
For now i'mma seize the moment
Lil bro say i'm goated daddy think i'm chosen
I would stop to smell the roses, but they gon mow em
And I feel some type of way I gotta keep it movin
Gotta prove it
I ain't really choose it, this life I live
I wanna sit back and talk my shit
But if they runnin up imma need a smith
Check the hit list, get killed for a grip
In my darkest of times I never thought about it
How easily the vision get rerouted
How easily a mound become a mountain
How easily my thought get just as clouded
As Olympus, where I think my pen is
I ain't really into all the spin shit
I just write Gold it's liquid, either way you spin it
It's gon be a minute 'fore you even get it
Ink, blood, sweat, tears all up in the mix
This should be the moment when it hits?
Nah, that should be the moment where it clicks
Get it? Like a lightbulb, i'm lit with my eyes closed
This should be the moment when it hits

Oh, bet it's all in
I just got off work go head and call ya friends
When we go upstairs you know it all ends
I get lit off sex just for the confidence
They get upset about my accomplishments
Shae butter smooth is an astonishment
They know the move come on be honest man
They know what's true I been an honest man
Switched up on us last minute changed up
Prolly won't ever give a fuck til a nigga famous
Funny how the target on me niggas aim but they miss
For real I don't think y'all gon ever know me from nameless
And if y'all hear that thang better check for me on the A-List
I let my heart sing but it's kinda hard for me to say this
Fuck it I ain't speakin I put my man on the playlist
I let my clique talk you know I ain't really got say shit

I had to find a way out, tired of writin it down
In the House of The Rising Sun, it's A New Dawn
Shit won't really feel right unless I put my crew on
Devil in a Red Dress, now she got blue on
Dancin disheveled, hol up
She ain't tell me that I put her favorite tune on
Make it look real right to do wrong but
My soul still bright as can be
Got the key to Heaven's Gates they waitin for me
I'm always runnin late got somewhere to be
It's time to wake up thanks for lettin me sleep
Cull the meek, shephard the sheep
Comes to the fates? Leave it to me
Fault in our stars seem clear as can be
Reach for the dollar when love what we need
Hang us by collar whenever we speak
Don't peep make ya momma weep
In the land of the free, nothin peaceful
Momma said talk to the people
Ride for yo people they need
Put rings on yo fingers like Kings do
Start treatin women juh like Queens too
And get you a strap 'fore they hang you
