Exodus

Yeah
It took some time for me to get to this place
My mind and body just wouldn't remain
I was feeling displaced
I'm too drunk to be driving please wait
It's my life why it feel like a race
Why it feel like I'm a pawn in a room full of greats
Why it feel like both my arms tucking under the weight
And these goddamn expectations I'm always tryna go beat
I swear I lost another brother last week
Now grab the table let's eat
Let's break bread instead you tryna go tweet
To your fake friends that you never gon see
I guess I was stupid naive
A fallen star is what they think that I'll be
But I'm raising bars so what more can I give
Yeah If I lose let me leave you this message
The sky's blue and the sea's a reflection
I'm on a path and it's precious
Under pressure my depression I'm anxious
To be the greatest and remembered forever
And remembered forever

Don't you break my brothers
Or we'll float in this ocean
Won't you let my people go
Won't you let my people go
Don't you break my brothers
Or we'll float in this ocean
Won't you let my people go
Won't you let my people go

See they judge me based on my melanin
Not my intelligence
Made it out of the turbulence
Broken people I'm serving them
Show the beauty in the scars
All the moments we capture then redefine them to be art
Coming straight from the heart
Let me in
Time flies I got the bird eye view
It's crunch time you can't wear my shoes
This is the path I choose
They broke my people but we came back to
To be survivors understand my roots
Bring back my bloom
Black people black power black excellence
Iconic still waters don't let me sink
Black people black power black excellence
Iconic still waters don't let me sink
If I lose let me leave you this message
The sky's blue and the sea's a reflection
I'm on my path and it's precious
Under pressure my depression I'm anxious
To be the greatest and remembered forever
And remembered forever

Don't you break my brothers
Or we'll float in this ocean
Won't you let my people go
Won't you let my people go
Don't you break my brothers
Or we'll float in this ocean
Won't you let my people go
Won't you let my people go

We don't talk about these things enough
People fighting over food and stuff
Overpopulated houses are
Filled with people but let's show them who we really are
Ay black wokeness is an everyday thing ay
So we party like it's vacation ay
Black wokeness is an everyday thing
So we party like it's vacation

Don't you break my brothers
Or we'll float in this ocean
Won't you let my people go
Won't you let my people go
Don't you break my brothers
Or we'll float in this ocean
Won't you let my people go
Won't you let my people go
