Sixpence Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah
Just gotta let off a little steam
You know, man?

[Verse]
Swear I would be the last one expected to say this
But the world surrounding me got me fed up, I hate it
People say they follow Jesus but honestly racist
Tryna analyze it all but it's honestly jaded
Forget it, erase the fact I even said it
All for a down full tank on '87
Learned to drive alone, there ain't a time that I regret it
Drank a hundred proof and close my eyes until it set in
Watch the world flip
And the craziest part of it, I'm not afraid of it
Good or bad, take a picture, start framing it
I got a call from my broker sayin' it sell
I told him let it burn 'cause it's all going to hell
No, the money can do well but the money don't own my wealth
When I put the bottle down I can finally see the real
On a day to day level, ain't '35 in the reel
Going 95, down to '5 loaded with the steel, yeah
I hear 'em say it's just principle, it's really subliminal
Coded in white sheets and rituals
The word to use here is cyclical
The cover is pitiful
We changing it now, I don't wanna just rhyme
I wanna make a difference
No more speaking in code, addressing it specific
See, the world getting cold, the problem is division
I always hated the math, I tend to love inscription
Doc's came through writing up a new prescription
Said a 'rona here, everybody need injections
The infections rarely came and it's invented
If you never hear from me again, check the message
S.C.T.A.G.L.L.I.B, no third eye, 20/20 what I see
Ain't gon' lie whether dead or lively
I'ma speak mind, soul box on the high key, uh
And what's wrong with a skin tone?
Peel it back, same blood, vein, meat, bones
All came from the same seed Eve broke
And you ain't better than nobody, we a equal
It ain't true, we rated by the shade
Hunted by the police, straight from a way's
Levels to this hell, to you it's another day
We cross another line, who gon' have to die today?
Huh, yeah
I see the devil playing left, right
I have to speak truth even if it costs life
Can't let a good crisis go to waste, right?
Search Lord, high high, that's a sound bite, yeah
