NIGGA DON’T UPLIFT ME

Why you ainʼt check for me when I been showin niggas that we got the recipe
Naw get the fuck off me! You luv a nigga once he talk about his pedigree
Lemme say itʼs plain as day to me, the admiration lacks sensitivity
Itʼs the 21st century
And niggas still canʼt just be, apparently

Men lie, women lie, as do numbers out
The mouths of them both and on that I could die
Loaded dice throwing whites
Wanna make me think that theyʼre on my side; itʼs not like I can't see why
Itʼs been
More than 10 years of writing just like this
Nobody paid me any mind, nobody gave a shit

Niggas start saying nigga, suddenly we important
Now a nigga feels
Fucking intolerant
You want to see me cry, you fucking assholes, and decipher my
Vocal fry while I contemplate suicide?
You can pay my life while I bring everything I
Said under my breath up into the light
I would make a living out of cussing out
Everyone who ainʼt listen
It just might be the middle child in me but itʼs worse to
Get ignored than told straight up you won't be shit

Hell yeah Iʼm hatin, niggas donʼt
Know shit about patience
I spent 14 years training
I spent 14 years waiting
Dan Yemin is my OG, I canʼt believe he fuck with me
Next to that I guess it means that
Jeremy B is big homie. Did I need to get put on to understand my worth? I was
Ready to quit before this shit and now hella people got our shirts

People ignore us
At home then talk us up while they touring
Yʼall love us when it works for you and
That shit is fucking boring

Why you ainʼt check for me
When I been showin niggas that we got the recipe? Naw get the fuck off me!
You luv a nigga once he talk abt his pedigree
Lemme say itʼs plain as day to me
The admiration lacks sensitivity
Itʼs the 21st century and niggas still canʼt just be
Afforded a real representation of the full breadth of their humanity in art, in film, in
Music
Itʼs so steadfastly true Iʼll literally tell you and nothing will happen
Nothing
Will change
Global cultural control will stay ours in a dangerous dance of achilles
Heels and superpowers
Why was so much blood lost, and who gonna pay off that
Cost? Yea duh niggas can be soft, and you can also fuck the fuck off
