Elevate, I elevate

Elevate, elevate, levitate to better days
You can check my resumé
Product of a broken home, my parents chose to separate
Life will throw you lemons, just make sure you have some recipes
"To have and to have not"
Yeah
That's Hemingway
As I hem away, this cloth talk in several ways
Music I meditate
Shit I wasn't made for a mold
I had to penetrate
This pen I wave, too cool for penitentiary's
I never had a degree only pedigree
My ancestors did wrong felt like they lead us stray
Naturally, I would follow, dodge some lead and strays
Testing fate felt fake had to correct my ways
Deprive something of love, watch it decimate
Hustle for decimals, it's time you have to dedicate
May your mind be a Diamond, cause that's what pressure makes
My kids be my new high, I need a set of wings
I told my girl let's see the world and the seven seas
So our seeds, know it's real like Tel Aviv
Must c'est la vie, sail our dreams like we Martin King
It's not about the rings, it's the thoughts that bling
These the gems that I bring, In these songs I sing
In these poems I sling, from the boy to King
King to the boys, that's true currency
Oh most certainly
Peep your current scene

I was born got no say, gon' die got no say
So while I'm here in this space, I'm just gon' rise to the plate
And elevate for heaven sake, for better days
You know a nigga pedaled yay
Was lead astray and took the fall
I was on my "fuck you all" before I hit the fourth grade
My local zone was full of broken homes
We all lack the kind of love that only a father shows
So get money, fuck hoes, that just how it goes
Yeah that shit sounds dumb as fuck, we needed better code
See we was left at the bottom so we set a tone
And now that message loud and clear, so clear the thrones
Low and behold the meek inherit, the holy in spirit
Raising our children. Loving our woman
Handling business
Talking long term commitments Skys no longer the limit
Nah
I'm elevating for generations
I'm celebrating that liberation
'Cause that's a moment and its worthy of the MoMA
The Hate You Gave Little Infants
Fucked Everybody, but bestowed us
Nigga it molds us
I speak for self
Homeboy I'm fully molded
In the dark, the unknown
Striving for the Logos
In these Ralph Lauren logos
In my classic American
Malcolm X polo
