Official (feat. Bliss)

This is not your ordinary this is not your usual
Had to go through all the ugliness to see the beautiful
Had to do the trials and tribulations and the crucibles
We just tryna make it fore we make it to our funerals

We just tryna see the nirvana beyond the drought
Feel as if we're running from karma hunting us down
As if it's waiting for that moment to put us under the ground
Don't let me see the pearly gates
If your just gonna lock me out

Let the mandem in cause down here we been fighting
Looking for the cake but barely could find icing
Rise up I just want the wine to runneth over in my cup
Know the journeys long but i'm ready like a hiker

Tryna climb mounts higher than Olympus
Tryna surf through the skies on a nimbus
Look you can't rush this life so I'm waiting
Can't lift time gotta exercise patience

We've come a long way from nothing
Had to figure out a way through the pain
Yh we won against all our demons
And anyone who tried to lead us astray
No we weren't the ones who made up rules but
Still figured out a way to play the game
Yh we got through all the darkness
Now we finally see the brightest of days

Know that we've been official
Soon they're gonna see in time
Not after much just want some money
And some peace of mind
The life they gave us wasn't right so we redefine
They cannot tame our fire when it burns so deep inside

Imagine us as youths look we grew up so confused
Told that life is a fair but quickly found that was a ruse
Wallabees my shoes, with the holes that went right through
When choices dem are skewed tell me what's a kid to do

But pick the options that he sees
On that road some mothers grieve
Hella run ins with police doing dirty to get clean
The things we do for green
To be heard and to be seen by any means
Cause no deaths worse than the death of your dreams

So when you see the passion and fire you know why now
You just can't let all you desires just go by now
Sprout my wings I need to fly out, better mind out
Say its crabs in the barrel but I bet I climb out

The instinct to escape from the place we were caged
No ones written out fate hunger written on my face
All that they said bout my race oh my days it was fake
Best believe they'll try diminish when you're great

We've come a long way from nothing
Had to figure out a way through the pain
Yh we won against all our demons
And anyone who tried to lead us astray
No we weren't the ones who made up rules but
Still figured out a way to play the game
Yh we got through all the darkness
Now we finally see the brightest of days

Know that we've been official
Soon they're gonna see in time
Not after much just want some money
And some peace of mind
The life they gave us wasn't right so we redefine
They cannot tame our fire when it burns so deep inside
