Lookin Up

Yeah
My phone is on four percent, so I gotta get this right
Before this shit die

Quiet down, tryin' listen to my heart
'Cause only light can get you through the dark
The end's inevitable truth is in the middle
Only you can start motherfucker, come on
Pandemic turn me fully alcoholic
But I'm also growin' like crazy, so fuck it
I can't and I don't have to call
It feel like my soul winnin' long as less than half is toxic

The time is the present, that's an always thing
This summer we rise, we know what fall could bring
But this the time we actually stay up when we say goodbye
'Cause we been sayin' that to each other for years up in NY
And this is for the ones that died before they fathers
For they causes, fuck a forefather, this for George and Breonna
This for the New York I absorbed and was brought up in
We startin' to look familiar

Ridin' through the city like muhfuckin' Piggy
Wind in her hair, oh my baby's so pretty
Whims of despair, every day we so shitty
Wings in the air, know the haters gon' lift me up
'Cause this the day we learn to fly
We been hurtin', we been yearnin'
This the day we learnin' why (yeah)
We lookin' up

And I be ridin' through the city like muhfuckin' Piggy
Wind in her hair, oh, my baby's so pretty
Whims of despair, every day we so shitty
Wings in the air, know the haters gon' lift me up
And I be ridin' through the city like muhfuckin' Piggy
Wind in her hair, oh, my baby's so pretty
Whims of despair, every day we so shitty
Wings in the air, know the haters gon' lift me up

I don't really know what they got in store for us
But why the fuck we bow down when there's more of us?
I'm tired of runnin' my feet, they been gettin' blisters
Protect our women, I see you like you my sister
You supposed to be my brother, how we beefin' wit' each other?
We got 99 problems, we really don't need another
The odds already stacked
He should still be alive, but his eyes rolled to the back
That's how the police react, damn

You can't imagine what I'm thinkin'
If I'm goin' out then I'm havin' pigs in a blanket
Pandemic, or plandemic, I can't mention
Can't trust 'em, I gotta keep up my antennas
Socially distant from the wicked, this shit is sickenin'
I pray they never catch me slippin'
Ridin' dirty 'cause I'm Black, they tryna lock me in the system
I pray they never catch me slippin' (I pray they never catch me slippin')

Ridin' through the city like muhfuckin Piggy
Wind in her hair, oh, my baby's so pretty
Whims of despair, every day be so shitty
Wings in the air, know the haters gon lift me up
'Cause this the day we learn to fly
We been hurtin', we been yearnin'
This the day we learnin' why, yeah
We lookin' up

And I been ridin' through the city like muhfuckin' Piggy
Wind in her hair, oh, my baby's so pretty
Whims of despair, every day be so shitty
Wings in the air, know the haters gon' lift me up
And I been ridin' through the city like muhfuckin' Piggy
Wind in her hair, oh, my baby's so pretty
Whims of despair, every day be so shitty
Wings in the air, know the haters gon' lift me up
(Yeah, lift me up)

Ridin' through the city screamin', "Motherfuck a piggy"
Lift me up, go and lift me up
Ridin' through the city screamin', "Motherfuck a piggy"
Lift me up, yeah, go and lift me up
Yeah

'Cause I'm the type to take a pandemic
Make it anthemic
Days is all blended, decay and lost friendship
The sun is in hiding, the rays is authentic
At least they ain't lying, we gon' find that shit
'Cause ain't nobody finna tell us what we can't do, no
If you gotta kneel, to the real, stand true, yeah
You ain't gon' keep feedin' lions lamb food
'Cause sooner or later you for dinner, motherfucker

This for colder days, we heatin' up
Keepin' hope for days I need the luck
Fuck my older ways, I need adjust
'Cause if I don't look up, how we gon' change the world?
Change the world
