Asteroids (feat. Esselle)
I'm over thirty years old and still scared of police sirens
Everyday my people struggle with police violence
It's a reality I wish wouldn't see
But the fact is that I feel way safer when overseas
In foreign country. Felt like they really loved me
I got back and all the cops wanted to do is snuff me
Look, you telling me it's coo to die for this shit
But y'all hate that I'm alive for this shit
Hella brutal, but
I gotta live for my niggas who couldn't get this far
My cousin Tyree spent years looking through prison bars
I hope my boy Pac is doing much better
Cause I wouldn't know, I can't even send my Bro a letter
It hurts, tell me Bro was it worth
Everything you did was cause you out ya family first
Shit you do as father, when you low on dollars
Held up a bodega to get some food for ya daughter
Man sometimes the sky falls
Sometimes my daddy don't understand me
There's a war
Sometimes the sky falls
And shit is crazy
There's a war outside and the shit is crazy
I said this shit is crazy
Sometimes the skies get gray and the shit is hazy
It's like asteroids
In the sky
Check
I swear I'm tired of this shit
Nowadays my brothas dying just to try to exist
Try to mask all the stressin', but get a faster progression
Now we passive aggressive but let me ask you question
They already hate niggas, but why do niggas hate niggas
Black brothers different color flags blastin' a trigger
Go figure, it's a thing with self love we gotta prove
Everybody wants a movement but nobody wants to move
The stories of a good kid just kept some bad company
The gang gang types that bang wit such redundancy
Generational thuggery it's already written
In summary, he's taught to keep that thang tucked underneath
A rock and a hard place of patience and doubt
Stayin' low on your money and hope you makin' it out
When the cops tryna get you and being black is the issue
Step outside and then reality hits you
Man sometimes the sky falls
Sometimes my daddy don't understand me
There's a war
Sometimes the sky falls
And shit is crazy
There's a war outside and the shit is crazy
I said this shit is crazy
Sometimes the skies get gray and the shit is hazy
It's like asteroids
In the sky
Everyday my people struggle with police violence
It's a reality I wish wouldn't see
But the fact is that I feel way safer when overseas
In foreign country. Felt like they really loved me
I got back and all the cops wanted to do is snuff me
Look, you telling me it's coo to die for this shit
But y'all hate that I'm alive for this shit
Hella brutal, but
I gotta live for my niggas who couldn't get this far
My cousin Tyree spent years looking through prison bars
I hope my boy Pac is doing much better
Cause I wouldn't know, I can't even send my Bro a letter

It's like asteroids
