{Verse 1]
I just came back from a funeral
It put things in perspective
97 the numeral
It got us all reflective
Everybody got a story
Gotta pay respect
It’s crazy that I even gotta get this off my chest
It’s the worst year in modern history for real
Lost my granddad a couple months ago
Ain’t even heal
And we still got people thinking that this Covid ain’t real
Never wanna wear a mask, don’t consider how you feel, but they wanna ask
Why the black man getting the shot first
Like we ain't got it worse
A lot of hurt
Look at our communitiеs
They said our skin color worked as an immunity
They told us wе had super powers
Now look at the unity
But when we getting some good news
Some 'good for the hood' news
They just closed another hospital
On the south side hurting
I was outside lurking
I’m real
[Hook] (x2)
When you lookin at the news
They don’t dress shit up
But if you see me outside
I’m gon' dress shit up
For real
I'm real
These fly kicks all I got my guy
In a world where I can’t sit around, get high
I’m masked up, they won’t let me breathe
And I gotta wear a shield, I can barely see
But one thing I'ma do is get a fit off
'Cause everywhere is closed and it’s hard to get my shit off
I’m at the grocery store with the latest ones
And I’m talkin bout the high tops
The Mids is buns
This shit is the club
I’m looking forward to it
Everything is a dub
I swear I’m over losin'
I can’t take more loss
Whether job or fam
I swear my only job is to
Weather this storm
'Cause damn
I mean we Made it thru the year
But we don’t know what’s next
I know you see how
'Stunting hard' turned to 'light flex'
I might get
Everything that I asked
But I still can’t forget about the time that pass
