Smile #4

[Intro]
Scared!

[Verse]
Memories is medicine
The past make me reticent
Like elephants to Edison
Wish I had a sedative
Wish I wasn't pessimist
Shocks of mighty threaten him
'Cause of melanin
My mind racing circuits like Danica
Eyes tracing steps up to Canada
'Cause we never getting back to Africa
Med saying, "We can't be bought"
But what's the price when you already caught
Nostalgia cinema
Roots is enigma
Black nigga, pain past my ten figures
Tryna catch us by the toe
Never reap what we sowed 'cause
I let them use the scythe first
2020 sights to see the future first
And I'm grown, I'm grown
But my flowers ain't
Flooded like the Saints in the '05 hurricane
Headed to the hills with my mama on cocaine

[Outro]
Can't smile at the past when I see it
Mistake my past as seen it
'Cause what was ain't what it really seem
Maybe pain is what we really mean
Or maybe- is what I really need
(Gas what I smoke, nigga!)
