Sacrifice

Look
So you can check my bruises (Huh)
Taste my blood
Through all the pain and struggle
Don't ever hate on my shine
Coz I, came with some motives
And I, play with some potions
If I get in my emotions, I might just give up the grind (Woo)
But I, keep on my grind
I'm enlightening my shine
I feel it down deeper, all the shit I sacrificed
I hear, they criticized
I'm not, not good enough
I made sure I followed steps so now I'm getting certified in a good way
You'll never see me happy but you'll never see me cry (Yeah)
I'm dealing with the worst, but I keep it deep inside
I never say I'm the best, the people, they gon' decide
If I ever made a promise, then I promise that I lied (Uh)
I'm young and I'm black and I'm beautiful enough
I'm spitting out my body, but if that's not enough (Prr)
I'm never preaching love coz I never had enough (Prr prr)
Man I had to prove enough, but if enough ain't enough (Pow)
Then i guess i'm sorry (Prr)
Sorry (Prr)
Sorry (Prr)
Sorry (Pow pow)
I'm sorry
Sorry
Sorry (Aye)
I'm sorry
Sorry
Sorry

Black lives matter but I'm just fed up with that matter
You can choose to live a life in living life and live it better (Yeah)
But you'd rather pay all the attention to your folks
And the pressure that they throw, and forgetting that you matter (Grr)
What's real life
If you listen to your peers and not listen to yourself
But you still not getting better (Nigga)
What's a bro code
If you're living for the bros, and they're loving on the bro
But can't put you on the ladder (Prr prr)
You can choose the epiphany, you decide (Woo)
Or you can put your self first in you and I (Prr)
But if you can't decide between you and I (Bah)
I guess that makes the difference of you and l (Ch ch)
You can choose to love or hate me, you decide
But I choose to love myself and my vibe
I'd rather be the king of my life
And I'll never let the king shit slide

I'll never let a real model or a rich man kill my vibe, yeah
I'll never let a something or a body control ma life, yeah
If you ain't loving on the boy, please don't come kill ma vibe, yeah
I'll never follow all the pressure in the things that get me frightened

I don't care if you're my sis or you're my bro, yeah
I just wanna live and loving on my own, yeah
I know I had to sacrifice some for the bros, yeah
But if the bros don't like it, then I guess fuck the code, yeah
