Mothership

When I heard this beat I nearly cried
Made me think about the pain when my mama died
Made me think about my homie his mother just died
I told him just be strong think of the better times
Hold tight to those memories and those good vibes
The thought of heaven makes death alright
Makes you feel good for the fallen on the other side
I'll shed a tear I don't care it can't hurt my pride
RIP to my lost ones we miss you all
I know you'll hold me up when I gonna fall
I know your listening when I'm talking to a wall
I know you'll pick me up when I'm on my knees and crawl
Life's so hard right now kinda alarming
These times ain't even got a penny farthing
It's all good tho my kids are never starving
I'll do anything for my kids just call me
I can't let this fuckree ever stall me
My life at the moment not a nice movie
But I'm not gonna be the black man who dies early
This is my movie ima be here for the sequel
Part two three four and spin-off bout my sons
Don't ever think you can side-track me I'm not the one
I been here before this ain't new
Every day these day comes like deja vu
Every day these days come like deja vu

Lord knows I made my sacrifices
He knows I did
You'll lose your life trying to do what I do
You will die
Then you know
About pain and thunder and the rain
But I think I see the mothership coming
I think I see the mothership coming
Lord
I think I see the mothership coming
It's here
To shelter me yeah

Hunger games gave us hunger pains
The younger brains make a ton of change
Need them old heads give them some wisdom
Let them assist them
They just ain't a part of the convo
They've socially distanced
Like just for instance
You at odds with God's with sure swagger
Big words back a big mouth
Mick Jagger
Daddy was a rolling Stone
Motorola phone
Hardly ever home
Got the sunshine
Different time zone
Dial tone
Only diamonds no rhinestone
My skin with ice
The pyramids with limestone
King Taharka
Martian or a martyr
In the garden shed a tool not as sharper
So who your father
Lava
Nooks you know the saga
Disregarded the stone
That turned out to be the capstone after
Tell the ones that hold me down like gravity
Happily keeping me sane among sanity

I think I see the mothership coming
I see it
It's here
I think I see the mothership coming
Lord
I think I see the mothership coming
It's in-front of me
To shelter me
To shelter me
From the thunder and rain
