letra de true to myself, pt. ii - pkayz

[verse 1]
uh, now this the story of a black sheep who’ll turn into a goat
in a place with dark streets somehow a flower still rose
in the cold with jack heat somehow a n-gga found hope
tryna find a heart beat and a place to call home
people living with cracked pieces yet they claim to have a soul
generations can’t speak, societies can’t cope
with progression, that’s deep like the roots of a black rose
yearning for things they can’t keep because of dreams they can’t hold
well i’ve been mastering the art of peace
and it’s a master piece
i can’t release the stress that rests inside of me entirely
facades are feces
i cannot be bothered by these non-believers
how can you surpass a jesus
all these demons are beneath us
can’t defeat us
please don’t let your past deceive us
yall oblivious to the fact that we’ll make it beyond achievements
man if you aim low then you should know you’ll prolly reach it
it ain’t no secret
what you sowed you’ll have to reap it
i just practice what i’m preaching

[chorus]
i said one day you’re gon’ need me
just keep acting up
i’m done giving out freebies
i need the cash in lump sum
n-ggas acting cheesy
rapping bout their frontin’
stayed true to myself easy
now i lack in nothing
[verse 2]
this was never really the life i wanted to live
my future dictated by results at institutions
always believed in karma, guess this is just retribution
the world won’t always reward you for all the efforts you give
all your contributions
but better have it and not need it than to need it and not have it
slowly i’ve been losing all my passion for this rapping
noticing that all my sk!lls and talent have been stagnant
maybe cause i’ve been relaxing, f-ck it man what happens happens
the system tricked me with wisdom
but stripped me of all my rhythm
and poetry but i’m resilient
could’ve lived a thousand lives but if you never die, do you still call it living?
lately i’ve been on a mission
tryna get to all the riches
because frankly man who isn’t
have to make some tough decisions
break generational shackles
that keep our minds in these prisons
you know i gotta be different so
before you judge me
please look at me as a mirror
to see yourself a lil’ clearer
and know you’re not judging me
but you’re judging your own interior
insecurities and fears
i just hope over the years
you will learn to love yourself
because hate is insincere
pen is mightier than the sword
cause some words go deeper than spears
and we don’t really have no shield
all we can do is block our ears
cause we know when it’s too late
we can’t really stop the tears
from falling down our face
and just to keep it real
i hope we know it’s not a race cause…
[chorus]
one day you’re gon’ need me
just keep acting up
i’m done giving out freebies
i need the cash in lump sum
n-ggas acting cheesy
rapping bout their frontin’
stayed true to myself easy
now i lack in nothing

[outro]
the black sheep is the only one telling the truth…
