Talk About It

The blues may be the life you’ve led
Or midnight hours in an empty bed
But persecuting blues I’ve known
Could stalk like tigers and break like bone
Pend like rope in a gallows tree
Make me curse my pedigree
Bitterness thick on a wrankling tongue
Psalms to love, left unsung
Rivers heading north, but ending south
Funeral music and the going-home mouth
All riddles are blues, and all blues are sand (Okay let’s talk about it then)
And I’m just talking bout some blues I’ve had
Started as a hobby me and Kash and Kadafi
Never knew where it would take me, man the journey tried to break me
But the truth is, it made me, I’m a made nigga baby
Despite the ups and downs, stayed down 'til it
Kush dreams and fiends led to rings on my finger
Gold round my neck, my hands on my balls
I ain’t tell 'em, I showed 'em that everywhere he goin' they know
Fake niggas tried to boom but he knowin'
Picture me growin', take a leap of faith and started flyin'
Had to do it, 'cause I got tired of tryin'
Lost love, 'cause I chose to love me
Instead of the nigga that they was wantin' me to be
Mental incarceration, yeah I had to trade places
Now I fly freely, on a frequent basis
Streets to the stage, page after page
Only thing I’m chasin' is greatness, and mo' paper, haters
It was all a dream (A change has come to our lives)
What a journey it’s been (I'm not sayin' it’s wrong)
I can’t complain at all
Hell nah (Reached the void where we have to decide)
It ain’t over though (If we should go on)
My nigga Nobe' been' solid, he never switched up
Stood strong and long, when niggas bitched up
Fatal wouldn’t even have a headstone
Y’all speakin' down on his name, you know you dead wrong
Slander and propaganda, can’t bait a nigga
I’m stuck on code, look that’s why they hate a nigga
I let 'em tell it how they want to, then keep on doin' what I want to
A grown man, who you talkin' to
Walkin' through life, unafraid, only a slave to the rhytm
And I keep on gettin' paid, with this game I was given'
Another year around the sun, thankful to be livin'
Yeah, I keep on gettin' it done, never runnin' from my flaws
Fuck the critics and applauds, I just do it for my dogs
And everybody who need it, I just do it for the love
They feel it, so they believe it, blessed by Black Jesus
Y’all don’t hear me though
O4L (A change has come to our lives)
One time for the real ones that stayed down with us (I'm not sayin' it’s wrong)
Couple decades in this shit (Reached the void where we have to decide)
Ain’t over (If we should go on)
