letra de great awakening - gonza m.

[chorus]
i never changed, this is manny every day
i never changed, this is manny every day
i never changed, this is manny

[verse 1]
i was evicted twice, never looked back
the devil working hard, but i always knew that
casting spells on me but that ain’t really working though
what’s the price of lying, truth will set you free
i woke up in the morning feeling like i’m really me
i didn’t sell my soul for a position i didn’t need
i can’t believe you said you’d fire me if you could
what’s the point of gassing me up if you would
would you rather be underpaid or overrated
it’s cause my skin black and you don’t like that
you were scarred as a child, you didn’t fight back
so you judging everybody ‘till you get your smile back
i’m elevated baby, i’m out here doing my thing
talked to god, no middle man, the great awakening
what do you want from me, i don’t have nothing to give
i done lost everything twice, and brought it back again
my other half died, she looking down on me
my family looks down on me, they hate to see
the matrix is done, i took the red pill
i distanced myself so i could see what was real, ewww
[chorus]
i’m still messing with music cause music is life
the great awakening, we gotta do what’s right
i never changed, i’m still rapping for days
i never changed

understand manny

i’m still messing with music cause music is life
the great awakening, we gotta do what’s right
i never changed, i’m still producing for days
i never changed

[verse 2]
where we go 1 we go all
how many lies will it take for them to k!ll us all
all my life i was told i had to dress for them
i had to talk for them, change my address for them
it didn’t matter if my hair black, or it gets nappy
they only see that i’m impoverished, but i’m still happy
i was walking down the block and felt my body rise
no, i don’t snort coke, but my daddy high
i’m talking about my spirit making decisions for me
i know my heart good, but i need to be
too much evil in this world to be a part of it
blackmailing you, a form of gaslighting
i’m enlightened man, i got the vision man
one step at a time, let’s get it
i don’t really have a friend, they all brothers to me
but we gotta wake up, instead of sleeping in
the earth provides enough love, but not for greed
why my momma never ate, unless i got to eat
why my daddy had to leave, left the bills to me
why my uncles cursed me out, made it hard to breathe
i had to leave
[chorus]
i’m still messing with music cause music is life
the great awakening, we gotta do what’s right
i never changed, i’m still rapping for days
i never changed

understand manny

i’m still messing with music cause music is life
the great awakening, we gotta do what’s right
i never changed, i’m still producing for days
i never changed

[verse 3]
i always knew that my patience would make me stronger
i used to pick up scr-ps, go to class, and finish my work
i didn’t pay tuition, the government knew i was poor
so what was there to lose, when degrees were given for free
i manifested life to be what i want it to be
a little bit of freedom to meet my destiny
a little bit of courage never hurt me
but how i’m supposed to make it out the south without a purpose
how i’m supposed to be who i am without selling it
how i’m supposed to make a little money without protecting it
i just wanna work for my last name
not for pride or guilt-tripping nor big game
i hope to stay the same
i learned a lot about respect and being honest
i don’t self-loathe so i don’t lose my conscience
any job i had to pay bills was only temporary it wasn’t a big deal
i’m confessing five years of blessings
put it all in a message, i don’t know what’s next
but i do ask questions
why do people think i left? its cause there’s nothing right
why do people think low of me? cause they high at night
[outro]
this is manny every day
understand manny
