Position
Let′s get it
We really put our all in this shitWe put everything in this
So welcome
Yeah
Break out the box without droppin' the phone,
While havoc wreakin′ like my cologne, It's gettin' strong
But it′s fragrantly desired by dishonorable foes
Think they took over a home
′Cause the land we bought was on a loan
Contracts set in stone
To narrate how we livin'
Sign up to sell your soul
Pass it down to yo children
I come from broken promises mixed with head on collisions
As if I was walking ′round the crib with my shoes on and got caught slippin'
I was sittin′
In the back of the classroom payin' attention
While this rookie was dozing off right next to me
Only difference is his career was given to him and mine didn′t exist to them
'Til black folk started to speak up white folk saw it as dividends
Numbers, trends
Put 'em in Mercedes Benz
With a couple lady friends
He′ll feel like he made it then
Leader of the new school
Waiting for them album drops like sneakers
Just gotta order some new shoes
Emperor caught his new groove
He gone be aight (Ayyye)
He gone be ok (Ohh)
They wanted us to go (Nooo)
But nah we here to stay (hey, ho)
So we gone fuck it up (Haaa)
A come up on a stain (Yeah)
′Cause it's never enough (Nah)
Until the price is paid
We won′t have change
Obtainin' keys to open, doors, to get to the top
We had to climb 100, floors
Them shits didn′t work for the elevator nah it couldn't′ve been that sweet
A tough pill to swallow but we still take it now and later ain't no favors
I guess it's time to show some of my flavor
Since there′s been a search for cool aides
Bussin′ right thru the living room of a family
Add another season to they breaded chicken recipe
Harold's for delivery
Wash it down with the water bottles
And wipe they faces with napkins that I had to go shoppin′ for a whole hour
The store went out of stock had to use some of my Bitcoin
Before I lost it and my wallet was shot
I should've mined my business
More trial and error instead of just becoming a witness
To financial terror boardin′ up the windows
We don't know how long it′s gonna last we can't make shit closed
Listenin' as the wind blows, I hope that
We gone be aight (Ayyye)
And we gone be ok (Ohh)
They wanted us to go (Nooo)
But nah we here to stay (Hey, ho)
So we gone fuck it up (Haaa)
A come up on a stain (Yeah)
′Cause it′s never enough (Nah)
Until the price is paid
We won't have change
Ceremonial absence
Have us whippin′ them classics
Like a record when they pullin' us over
I guess this 85 make us look like a couple deadly weapons
Movin′ thru the hood while we sipping Coronas
Graduated to stoners
Servin it up in shops
While the government collectin' the taxes
And keepin′ niggas on cots in the same box
They streamin' hours of shows
Now the only reruns is the ones that a president goes twice for
Taking off the blindfolds
Pledging for allegiance we could kneel
But they still leaving us dead up in the streets
As they see us doin the same
The only one really benefitin' from it all
Is the niggas that′s making the games
We being replayed
As our history repeats they learning our names
But only after we deceased
Is it worth it?
Amidst all of the corporate gains
I gotta keep workin′ it's been way past a commercial break
But I′ma be alright (Ayyye)
And we gone be ok (Ohh)
They wanted us to go (Nooo)
But nah we here to stay (Hey, ho)
So we gone fuck it up (Haaa)
And come up on a stain (Yeah)
'Cause it′s never enough (Nah)
Until the price is paid
We won't have change
