Pictures
These are things I see when
Flipping through my phone
Am I the same man as the pictures in my home
Get crucified by some
Others put me on the throne
Am I just some voice that
You hearing on a song?
That white boy ain't the best at
Rap 'cause he ain't black
They say that we take from
Them and never gave back
They keep talking shit
Cultural appropriation
I'm white so I'm racist by association
Shit weighs heavy
I guess words can be deadly
I grew up watching Belly
Listening to Makaveli
We ain't cut the same, I'm vintage
There ain't shit to tell me
How you talking gangster shit? You never had
You a victim, I'm a villain, did my bit
I was in prison
Just a kid up, I grew up, you a bitch
You move off of your feelings
Feelings, off this music I make millions
I'm the best at what I do
I'm pretty sure I hit the ceiling
I wanna thank the white rappers
For making us a gimmick
Like you ain't dope if you don't
Rap a thousand words a minute
Shit's different
I guess lyrics get neglected
Gotta dance for the black man
Rap fast to get respected
These are things I see when
Flipping through my phone
Am I the same man as the pictures in my home
Get crucified by some
Others put me on the throne
Am I just some voice that
You hearing on a song?
These are things I see when
Flipping through my phone
Am I the same man as the pictures in my home
Get crucified by some
Others put me on the throne
Am I just some voice that
You hearing on a song?
You weren't there with me when I
Was sleeping on the floor
I was dirt-poor, caught my first case in '04
Fast forward, I'm a legend while I'm living
My fans fuck with me 'cause I
Can't stand a fucking liberal
You think we free? That's a lie
We ain't freed the slaves yet
Every black man with money got
A chain on his neck every time I get paid
They take money from my check
They don't give it to vets
Just kids wih student debt
I'm the one that had the
Balls to say it first
You saw that it worked and
Started drawing up a verse
How you gonna steal from me
And make it sound worse?
How you gonna hear me rapping
And say I sound like
These are things I think about
When flipping through my phone
Just off a call with Tom
He said leave that shit alone
I focus on the things from
People I don't even know
I walk alone so much I think
I lost part of my soul
These are things I see when
Flipping through my phone
Am I the same man as the pictures in my home
Get crucified by some
Others put me on the throne
Am I just some voice that
You hearing on a song?
These are things I see when
Flipping through my phone
Am I the same man as the pictures in my home
Get crucified by some
Others put me on the throne
Am I just some voice that
You hearing on a song?
