NAT II

[Intro]
Everywhere you look the world is burning
Life tastes a lot better now that you know that it's on the mind - right?
A lack of appreciation of things is just too much
But I bet when we get through this, cause we will get through this
I bet you'll love a little bit deeper
I bet you'll work a little bit harder
I bet you'll have time for the things you didn't have time for all of a sudden

[Verse 1]
Went from hanging in the trees
Straight to hanging in the streets
Wanna kill my body
See it swangin in the breeze
Lock down my soul break down or break free
Gotta break free
Cause life can’t get more lower than it is right now

My momma work to the bone
My hood a true war zone
My brother still ain’t home
They tryna kill our soul
Tried to plant these seeds
I grew a concrete rose
I tried to reach my dreams
Grew a concrete soul

Cause ain’t no love for a nigga at the top
Ain’t no love for a nigga cause you still a nigga
The police never hesitate to kill a nigga
And the streets never hesitate to...

[Verse 2]
Hell hath no fury like a rigged jury
Niggas ain’t gettin to fair cases
Niggas only get them fed cases
Kids ain’t gettin no fed faces
Ramen noodle babies streets goin crazy
Streets on fire let it burn baby
You put me through hell and back..
Well...
It’s your turn baby

[Interlude]
How the hell can you have a dream?
For what?

[Verse 3]
I know there’s more for me
There must be more for you too
We’ve got so much to say
All black everything
Gay rights
Trans rights
All black lives
All black life

[Outro]
I'm trying to shift away from this idea that we have to keep blaming ourselves for our own circumstances
Like baby, that's not what it is
