Easy / Cut Ties

[Part I: Easy]

[Intro: Mission]

Skrt, skrt
Skrt, skrt

[Chorus: Mission]

I had to grind
Get up and get it, it couldn't be easy
You see the bag
You see the drip, it ain't gonna be easy
Couldn't be easy, nah, nah
It couldn't be easy
Couldn't be easy, nah, nah
It couldn't be easy

[Verse 1: Mission]

Yeah
All blessings, had no luck, yeah
Then got up
They was upset
I had to grind to get what's in front of me
Told 'em the story, I told 'em the summary
All flows high, this feelin' real summery
If you got a pro'lem, then say it in front of me
Soon a I make it, I'm too amped
I came from roaches and food stamps
The road to riches can't save my soul
Somebody go get me a new map
I'm only spittin' the true facts
How I'm not [?], move back
We just been workin', you too lax
I'm 'bout to pass 'em, I'm too Dak
Works are firm like a affidavit
Got a new life once I let Him shape it
Don't let everybody in my circle
First gotta fill 'em out like a application
Turn the hype off
Use flashlights when the lights off
Yeah, the bark loud, but the bite soft
Christ some fresh breeze like Lysol

[Chorus: Mission]

I had to grind
Get up and get it, it couldn't be easy
You see the bag
You see the drip, it ain't gonna be easy
Couldn't be easy, nah, nah
It couldn't be easy
Couldn't be easy, nah, nah
It couldn't be easy, yeah

[Post-Chorus: Mission]

Ain't goin' to be easy (skrt, skrt)
Ain't goin' to be easy (skrt, skrt)
Ain't goin' to be easy, yeah (skrt, skrt)
Ain't goin' to be easy

[Verse 2: K. Agee]

Ain't gonna be easy
Thought it'd be easy
Rob some folk
Thought it'd be easy
Caught a case
I wasn't easy
Left my mama frownin'
None too pleasin'
Look, remember payin' most all my bills
Use the pre-pays
Lookin' back on my younger days
Was a knucklehead, yellin', "We safe"
Pack a mountain, that's five hunnid
Bring it back, watch the drip change
Money always turn blue quick
That's why I learned how to flip change, yeah, long range
Y'all just blow off smoke
Never had to slide against the ropes
Still out here snitchin' on the low
Switchin' on the ones you call bro
Scared to say you scared for the Lord
Turn around and ask for the most
Speak the truth, the only thing I'm on
That's the difference, man, between me and you

[Part II: Cut Ties]

[Break: Mission]

Yeah
Yeah, yeah

[Verse: Mission]

Uh, know I had to do this
For my people (what?)
Uh, look, swervin' off the road
That could be lethal (what?)
Yeah, I won't fight the Rock
I'm not Vin Diesel (what?)
Look, all my flows be sick
They got the measles (yeah, yeah)
Way back when I rolled in a Regal
I was tryna take hold of the evil
Told me, "Eat, eat," never blink when I see food
Every beat gettin' chewed like a seafood
Goin' deep, deep in the paint like it's 3-2
I was unsure of some things, had to review
Even when we stretched out, couldn't reach you
Every win, win, givin' praise to the Jesús
Yeah, the fact of the matter is that Satan flatters
But my God is factor, takin' charge adaptors
Goin' high like raptors, spreadin' love and laughter
All these chains are shattered when the blood was splattered
All these dudes tryna gas with the tank on
Myself, my God I'ma bank on
Time comin', just gotta have patience
Why they all lookin' at me like Masons?
I've been on the switch gears when the race on
But I've been goin' buck, wife know I bring the steak home
Shout to her 'cause she straight, been the day-one
Better save some for the sky, go black like [?], Mission
