Lyrics
Back wit leverage back just meddling
Back so black keep the back hand relevant
Back to the settlement back where the weather get
Back to the sunny side no matter where the weather been
Back to my old squad back to my old my whip
Back to the old days back to kid again
Back when I ain't had to worry bout shit
Yeah... I hate it here
As a black man damnit I hate here
My fiancé tell me she hate it here
Another shooter took lives I hate it here
Another dreams just died I hate it here
Can't escape the fear drink the pain away
Fall asleep, start again another day
I need peace I need peace I need relief
I need all the cops off the street
I need reform I think we all need to reborn
I think we done with bullshit
The 1% tryna give they 2 cents ain't nobody doin shit
The crowd gon lose it yelling out eat the rich
Nobody tryna plead the fifth how they not seeing this
Hoping y'all seeing this if they won't help
Save yourself
Save yourself
Save yourself
Save yourself
If they won't help
I plead I plead on my knees
We all grieve desperate need for release
The moneys bad ain't nothing free except for me
I don't wanna pretend tryna live life for me
My community inspires me the way that I write
The things that I see it's all in my head it's all in belief
I float from trees strange fruit I see can't truly breathe
There's blood on the leaves there's drops from my sleeves
I stem from the seed from Adam plus Eve
How the fuck we hard drive the culture
Push out the vultures try and stay sober
Our bodies litter the streets I'm praying we all see
We know they won't help better off just tryna
Save your self, Lacking belief
Still chat through my teeth, If Gods on my side
Am I, backing the beef when theres doubt in my seed
From the man in the sea putting my words in my mouth
Like "Actually" (Saveyourself)
Im in your stereo, landline and ariel concerning everyone
Inside your telephone ad sense I generate income for all yall
Im the why your temptations the torso (save yourself)
Im the reason why you checking your sort code
Im the love the money, for the bag she be fucking
I sell fantasy love through the site of a porno
Reversing you're for heart for a change like Uno (save yourself)
Dealing bad cards of damnation to new growth
I pushing on weight like Sumo, keep you addicted
Wishing that you wont wish to save yourself
Save the energy, come like british gas I'ma raise price for enemy
He said he hard but can't punch like Bellami
One punch then your one piece in a cemetery
That's how I'm fighting the devil and the hennesy
I can't lose when God's in my spirit
Easing my heart and art when I make these lyrics
I'm raising my sword that's the word
If I slice your tongue you can't talk in curse
I got the key when I read up the verse
Back in the day man I used to wanna please you
Nowadays all i see in you is evil
Taking the keys locking in the people
Causing addiction, lesser conviction
I cannot be near you gotta save myself
