Chalk

It's Like That
It's Like That
It's Like That
It's Like That Cuz Yeshuwa Made It

I stay producing good energy day in and day out
If Yeshuwa Made It, then it's played in every room my house
Ain't no doubt about it, I'm well rounded like the circle I created
Well weighted with folks who hold me close like how butter do toast
I'm lifted on a float, likely to slightly remind thee of Holy Ghost
Of whom I'm chose to lead the people to the path favored the most
I move past groove past low class energy
With a swoosh, I betcha I can catch me an ally-oop
Make the crowd go crazy, 2K views on my style when I'm up late lazy
Run the film, they tape me, suddenly my life like movie
See me blessing all the people (Why?) cuz it's Blessed Vibes Only
Legitimate, what it is, I'm speaking truly
Heard some people mentioning my name
When they mention my name, heard they used it too loosely
Denied stage time by the culture I grew with
Claiming my messages, don't align with their movement
Unsure of the vibe that they want to create
I wanted to join the cause, but I'm like wait (Wait!)
Hold on, unsure of the vibe? (What?)
You need positive energy (Yeah!) put the violence aside
We can't rise as country while fighting one another
Treating my brother like he's one of my enemies
Riots turn to ruin, What kind of spell are we under?
The Black Lives Movement said I'm too much of a lover
I might make the crowd go crazy and start healing humanity
I'm more concerned that their message may be more damaging
To the future that were trying to concoct
By writing peaceful protest with sidewalk Chalk
Just to get erased or maced on our knees
And kicked in the face till we bleed
Or else our neck gets a knee into the hard concrete
Until we plead out to the heavens
Like LORD ARE YOU HEARING ME?

This is more than when life hands you lemons
Denied by my kind, but I'm still grinning
Maybe I should have been more collusive
I love Black Lives but I'm too inclusive
Bet this won't get many plays cuz no one feels my pain
Bet you ain't never had the story heard or told this way
If I'm not on the right app
Then this track goes to the back
When I greet give dap, yeah! (Yeah!) no counterfeit in that
Generally genuine, I'm humble as a mumble, Jack
Could you keep that low-key?
Resonating at a higher frequency than most be
Shifted to a different MindZone
Take a look around, tell me am I alone?
I agree as black people, we got it rough
But what happens when your actions deem you not black enough?
Like I was a participant in the race swap, make me think of switching places with Someone they like a lot
On second thought that'd make my destiny too easy
When one door closes another opens and thats where I need to be
Okay!
If you're going to try to disguise malice in a positive light
I pray that the ones who support unity make it through the night

(God Bless)
