Bilingual
Clean break, tougher to make
Ain't a thing to the king, they ain't ruffle the mane
Hold your head, cover your face, so disease doesn't spread
She said I got a son on the way
Made my bed so that's where I'ma lay
My worried bones, my heavy head I carry home every day
My mama sayin' that I'll never be alone
Even though she gotta know that I know she dismayed
With the choices I made
The only way forward is unafraid and focused when I'm holdin' these reins
Yell "Thanks" over my shoulder to my auntie Elaine
27 braids fallin' over my face
My head on straight, my mama closin' the gate
And both of them sleep better when they know that I ate
I'm goin' through changes that I couldn't fathom
But growin' pains lead to understanding
I'm no passenger on a plane, precious cargo in a cabin
My whole take on baggage just ain't the same
Don't fall for the fake magic
They came with the David Blaine patterns, so we jab and weave
I'm tryna farm up some lavish green with the fam
Lavash bread, sharin' everything with the team
Spreading seeds, spilling drinks for the dead
Godspeed, into the league but I'm still ahead
I found a swing sittin' in the sands
Pushin'

My ancestors turned
To open a door that separates us from our... creator
But you need no doors to find God, if you believe
Believe? If you believe you are-
