Our Time

It's our time, no rewind
Take what's mine, one of a kind
Rise and shine, all on the line

Do you want it, do you really really want it?
(Do you want it?)
If you knew the shit it took would you flaunt it?
(Would you flaunt it?)
All the bodies in my bloodline, ain't forgot it
(Ain't forgot it)
Haters try to put me down, I got the tonic
(I got the tonic)

Always know the shit to say, I got the phonics
(Got the phonics)
Try to dumb me down, confine me to ebonics
(Hell nah)
Had to cut the trauma bonds, glad I caught it
(Goddamn)
Had the self-hate running like a faucet
(Noo)

You never know the shit you face until you've fought it
(Not till you've fought it)
You wouldn't know the truth because they never taught it
(They never taught it)
You don't know the price of peace until you've sought it
(Not till you've sought it)
Tried to take away my freedom, bitch I bought it
(Bitch I bought it)

Gained control of my mind, you thought I lost it
(You thought I lost it?)
Picked my soul up out the dark from where you tossed it
(From where YOU tossed it)
Ain't no feelings, like my heart supremely frosted
(Ice cold)
Every line they tried to draw, I fucking crossed it
(I fucking crossed that shit)

Used to be unknown, now I got the sauce and...
(Sauce)
I got natural drip, don't even gotta floss and...
(Floss)
Tried to go above my head, but bitch I'm mossin
(Up top!)
Think I'm slowing down, but I just started NOSin
(Skrtt!)

Gotta build the shit you want from the ground up
(From the ground)
Tried to calculate the cost, nigga round up!
Gettin lost up in the hate, turn your frown up
(Turn it up)
Gotta listen to your heart, turn the sound up
(Turn it up, yeah)

It's our time, no rewind
Take what's mine, one of a kind
Rise and shine, all on the line
