The Elephant Man

Walk around like I got a target on my back
See the color of our skin?
See the colors on my flag?

How am I supposed to be an optimist
When my government wants to put people like me in camps like Auschwitz

Fuck getting political imma just be cynical
I'm hot off the press like a Skittles kid just turned invisible
It's difficult to understand motivation of Zimmerman
Tell me George how is ice tea threatening?
We were from the state
Trayvon's from the same place
We Damn near the same age
Such an innocent face
If I can't feel safe in my own home
I'm move out to a new zone
On the road to Orlando
Poof Pulse gone
No Where to Go!

I'm-

Im terrified I'll never leave the barrio
Fuckin social prison
Black hole
Count all the bodies up
Pride is all we really got
But pride might be our doom
Why did 17 people die inside their classroom

I feel trapped in my head fighting my anxiety
Papi passing tryin me
Lil sister eyeing me

Im supposed to be a role model to these kids
But if I can't speak for myself how can I speak for them

This record’s for the kids who don’t know how to love themselves
Go to concerts by themselves
Do everything by themselves
But
I saw God in the seventh grade
She told me
Nobody cares about you
Go get your money made
Now Go!

Attitudes what no one says you need to go far
So even when no one else will treat yourself like a Popstar!
