[Intro: Infinito 2017]
Y’all want to hear a fairy tale? It’s called “Never.” But it was something like this. Dudes was telling me to just... say what I was feeling. And there was parts of that just went in and out like, real, like, you know’m saying? Ain’t never not a good one. Ain’t never not a good one. I can’t find one

[Verse 1: Infinito 2017]
In America, success is based off behavior
Those who act right get the best jobs in a
Racially biased life. Take what’s yours—that is
Their agenda. What’s for dinner? They took the food from the winner
Rude mood. No school. Act finesse, backlash
Out, dude. The court of undocumented immigrants. You an immigrant
No Child Left Behind, standardized testing
Hurricane Katrina, excuses for delays
Racist and ethnocentric immigration act
Bipartisan restricted on African immigrants
Undefeated occupy, unmask zero generation
Mass incarceration, slavery, and segregation
Brown versus Board of the Education
Jim Crow Constitution illegally stealing land from these
Mexican Americans, walking, wounded warriors
Never get benefits, Reconstruction proclamations
Forty acres and a mule, Confederate black coals
Reformulate in Southern states. Trail of Tears. Black
And Natives life silenced by the gag rules
Anti-drug abuse laws, minimal sentences
Jailed on drug crimes, mass incarceration. Black
And brown have been to space and very controversial in a
World with no rehearsals, racially coded appeals
On your Southern strategy, don’t say none. Just
Protest quietly. Silence, please
American colony, Liberia, Monroe
Doctrine. Not my president. I can’t find a good one
Not my president. My people overlooked, son
Racist bigot, you illiterate, can’t write a sentence
Don’t know the difference between freedom and independence

[Hook: Infinito 2017]
Ain’t never not a good one
I can’t find him. Ain’t never not a good one
I can’t find one. They must have overlooked him
I can’t find him. Ain’t never not a good one
I can’t find him. Ain’t never not a good one
I can’t find one. They must have overlooked him
I can’t find him. Ain’t never not a good one
I can’t find him. Ain’t never not a good one
I can’t find one. They must have overlooked him

[Outro: Infinito 2017]
Not one. It’s a “never say never” type of existence in this never. Because what it is is never what it says. It’s never ‘cause it never is a never in Neverland. That’s your fantasy fairy tale for today
