Continuum

Black King Cole
Pressure still builds for a young black man in these streets
I'm just trying to be me
Water gets deep as we count sheep to sleep
Better stay awake

Just when you counted out
The underdog's out of rout
When verbals come out of the spout
Put your moms out the house
Coming to keep the clout
Gunning for peek and mouse
Ski resorts in the alps
My lady wait grin in a blouse
Reppin' the side of the south
Neglecting the diamonds in banks with increasing accounts
Legibles credible federal tax sneaking an ounce
We pass enemy jamming to crickets leaping about
Dope boys flip notes from the phones left leaking all out
Theft drugs for the love in places i can't even pronounce
Where we headed on this nasty road I know
Before we get back home we might just have to crash the boat
Yeah i'm geeking out
To havoc splash with hash the blow
We down to trash the class you know
Big tragic fashion cancelled show
It's the king of the bout
Battle the war
Saddle for swore
Cattle for corn
Drastic reform
Laugh at the poor
Who built this bitch brought the bricks up
No respect for my kind that's why its always fuck the system
No premonition to see the conditions
Miserable even
We losing brothers every evenin'
Shot in backs for breathing
Only for the shooter to get put on leave for the weekend
I'm seeing
Staying awake evading the bait
Believe in fate
Won't choose my date
When death come to play
Staying awake evading the bait
Forced by hate chasing this cake in this land of lakes
Militant gentlemen call me quicker than Ritalin
Illegitimate incident sentences kill your innocence
Cannabis camo by incense tragic coincidence
Often Trading friendship for living ignant
Different actions malignant
Killers indignant
Live it to get it
Infinite resentment for the treatment by the pigskins
We runnin' thick as thieves when that shit hits
Me and my niglets get vicious to raise the digits
Everyday is thanksgiving i'm grateful for living
Hateful forgetting in my nation racial issues delivered
In spirit i'm holy and mental i'm fighting appearance
Judged by my lyrics nappy hair and good looks 'cause im bearded
Just fear it
'Cause knowledge is not taught in the college of realness
You just a novice learn on job runnin' errands
Understand the problem in dominant culture's apparent
Bloodsucking leeches economy vultures that's not sharing

So it goes
I guess things really never do change
