Krak 4 Sale

From the boat to the block I'm up for auction
Fighting to be free now willingly turned myself to a product
Our physique used to be amongst reasons why owners bought us
If we speed to presently our best selling point is the trauma
Terry grew up in a broken home age seven started moving on his own
I feel like we should put him on
The glisten from tears replaced with gleam of the chrome
A lotta wrong done reappeared between the beat of a song
It's provocative
Just like Josh the talent high but can't get off the drugs
High chance next album gon be posthumous
Long play, take out that insurance start to run it up
His mama gon back looking for splits, but we don't give a fuck
Reagan planted seeds into the streets to make yo presence fade away
We accomplished the mission, you want a piece, but you can't see?
Guns planted into trees, abandoned trains, tryna indirect ways to promulgate the pain

I heard Krak's for sale
I heard black's for sale
It's custom you go through something when black as hell
I love the culture, but sometimes black is hell
I don't plan to fail
Nah I don't plan to fail
I had to surround myself with some winners man
Can't you tell?
And they all black as well

Amongst the low percentage they identified as gifted
From a young age
Connections in class, easily made, but I ain't want As
I want plays and glory from any given Sunday
Nigga went from the field to the stage oh my nigga ways are engrained
Still providing service to masters if I get paid
Just don't let me know that it's a low wage
Token black nigga got accepted they take pictures and they preach diversity
If the quota benefits me then put my face in brochure and pass degree
But I'm implored to at least speak about the bullshit that they gon have to endure
It's a sick journey becoming a generational cures
They gon kick you, but my wisdom is never stay on the floor
Get up and prepare for more
Remember, it ain't never no freedom without no war
Niggas died for this
Thoughts to myself like once a week when I be tryna quit
Gotta remember that it's way bigger than this
Could never quit

I heard Krak's for sale
I heard black's for sale
It's custom you go through something when black as hell
I love the culture, but sometimes black is hell
I don't plan to fail
Nah I don't plan to fail
I had to surround myself with some winners man
Can't you tell?
And they all black as well

Am I just another echo in the chamber of rappers that state the obvious
Niggas is fucked, the last thought of every congressman
Trapped inside the ceiling they box us in guess the bond we in
Feels insurmountable so breaking it's gon bring astonishment
I still feel the weight of all my greats upon my back
The ones that gave you rap and y'all ran up billions with that
We dunk it and you clap and y'all ran up billions with that
Prolly why when you make profit, they say that you in the black
Shit that's prolly why a stare with equal eyes can leave em mortified
How did I, go where evil lies and still maintain my pride
How did I, steer the course correctly I ain't have no guide
How did I, walk amongst the whites not end up gentrified
Maybe cuz the scars of upbringing have been solidified
And parents taught don't fall to appeal of doing no prison time
Couldn't trap me there, but the goals accomplished the day I sign
Said all that to say that if they pay I'm still gon kick a rhyme
Ain't it a shame I gotta take what we can get
You see the games to make us strive for a million, but that ain't rich
I mean it is, but Elon would disagree with my quips
I came to grips with the fact that we must do more than exist

I heard Krak's for sale
I heard black's for sale
It's custom you go through something when black as hell
I love the culture, but sometimes black is hell
I don't plan to fail
Nah I don't plan to fail
I had to surround myself with some winners man
Can't you tell?
And they all black as well
