I love this And I need it And you best believe I'll achieve it With or without you girl T: What you got bro? What you got? [Amir Royale:] I got the looks and talent But say that with avid admittance that I'm not conceded I mean it, like These are things I've heard repeatedly said in my presence Guess they're a basic present But that don't mean that I believe it Much less that I'll achieve it in a shape or form Please sir, tell me what's the norm I must conform to Or is it just you I must perform for?

And guess what? They say we doing good cause we're superstars in the hood But we just manifesting decapitated figures that we all put Chasing a dream Tryna make box lean I wish I could We say we feeding kids But we feed them things we never should Let me build a synopsis As I draw a map to the cracks of your mindset That anything at all was never accomplished That the world got lighter And we all lost fire So dark was white And then we lost our color And we enslaved the people that just looked like others This is a letter all the way from the womb Will I ever be able to live without someone's assume? [Interlude: Amir Royale] We are all coming together And we're getting something crazy I can't tell you anything but how we're...
