[intro]
they say what is, is what was
but what was could never be
ain’t nothing new under the sun
y’all ain’t doing nothing but some sh-t i already did
let me tell you where you’re going
yo

[verse 1: dres]
said i’m not gonna say “you”, y’all
i’m gonna say “we”
sometimes i sit and think about it
yo, how numb could we be
how could it go so far, how’d it get so funky
that we could walk a mile in the footsteps of a porch monkey
that we could break a barrier without one key
then turn around and try to imitate a mob flunky
we’re not together, y’all
and most of us have forgotten
those at the top don’t want nothing to do with those at the bottom
and that’s bad when you put a pricetag on sad
had aspirations of a kingdom but the plans gone bad
and every man’s gone mad
i’m feelin so defeated
wasted so much time chasing what i never needed
’til i heard it echo, “let go”
“you’ll be richer when you stop chasing crumbs ’cause the cake’s the bigger picture”
got too many pennies in our hands to hold the dollars
got too many problems in the world to k!ll the scholars

[hook]
said i’m so numb
i really couldn’t care in the end
that i’m so dumb
i plied against myself never depended
on no one
sometimes i need to pray i find way but i’m
so numb, and i’m so dumb
and i’m so lost
i never thought to put it on a scale
what my soul cost
the crime, i got no money for my bail
suffered no cause
sometimes i need to pray i find way but i’m
so numb, and i’m so dumb

[verse 2: dres]
sometimes i’m sitting at the window
and the world that i see
makes me ask myself the question
“yo, how numb can we be?”
we’re all descendants of the people
that they chose, made slaves
nowadays, they pay my people money not to make waves
now that’s a house n-gga
so glad we’re not in the field
we’re glorified instead trying to destroy and rebuild
how many hopes have we k!lled by doing nothing at all
or planting seeds to succeed by either drugs or basketball
or worse, that a rapper laying your life on the top
i listen to the radio and yo, that ain’t hip hop
so numb to make it big is the way that i chose
so i could rip off all the children for my sneakers and clothes
i thought we’d lower the prices not give companies the license
to divide and conquer us with the modern day devices
we take what’s priceless with hope for personal wealth
turn a life into a struggle for life itself (can you feel me?)

[hook]
said i’m so numb
i really couldn’t care in the end
that i’m so dumb
i plied against myself never depended
on no one
sometimes i need to pray i find way but i’m
so numb, and i’m so dumb
and i’m so lost
i never thought to put it on a scale
what my soul cost
the crime, i got no money for my bail
suffered no cause
sometimes i need to pray i find way but i’m
so numb, and i’m so dumb

[verse 3: dres]
said it’s so hard
i wonder if the world can feel my pain
we’ve been so scarred
we close our eyes and breathe the novacaine
i get so numb, and wonder where this road is taking me
has the world mistaken me, and has god forsaken me?
said it’s deep down
it’s out of me, i know we can prevail
this sweet sound[?], though most i mind wind up dead or in jail
’cause we don’t do what we could
’cause we can’t do what we should
we been hoodwinked, i guess that’s why we repping the hood
although we don’t rep us, it lets us die without a care in the hood
your only thought is to get the f-ck outta there
and show your children a change, sometimes you give it your all
to lose your way the day you say that, “i’ll be better than y’all”
’til we’re numb of all the power we possess, unified
eyes closed, like the problems of the world blew inside
’til we’re numb from all the ice pushing a newer ride
and the artery we cut, we die, suicide
