Not for Sale
Ever since the kid
Was a snotty nose
Been aware that I'm worth
More than a pot of gold
Cold like gelato
Do you feel the vibe
From my almighty vibrato
Bitch I'm trying be Picasso
Painting pictures with these scriptures
Hope these words eternal
Hop over every hurdle
Like this king got wings
I don't see eye to eye
With my opposition
Fuck the coalition
Follow my heart like a religion
Patient for the paper
I don't need to chase
So my blessings never late
They just happen
When they need to
Trying remain peaceful
Duck and dodge the evils
They closer than you thank
You could miss it if you blank
But I'm ready for whatever
I'm prepared in any weather
This game of life
Is chess not checkers
Little room for error
And even if it happen
That shit don't define me
This fade came in all flavors bitch
You should try me
My soul not for sale
If I fall I'll prevail
I know life no fairy tale
Why lord they don't want me
To be free?
No shackles on my mind
Color outside the lines
They wish I would fall in line
Why lord they don't want me
To be free?
Praying that I see another sunrise
It's no surprise that they wanna
See my demise
Only way imma stop
If a nigga six feet deep
My soul not for sale
If I fall I'll prevail
I know life no fairy tale
Why lord they don't want me
To be free?
We dying from those
Who protect a serve
And saying mothafuck twelve
Till we leave this earth
The hate that you got for me
It must run deep
Cause my ancestors
Were hung in ya fam's tree
I know it make ya sick to ya stomach
That ya child love a wild nigga
Who you think is trouble
But you all wrong
Smiling cheek to cheek
Like I'm Louis Armstrong
When the city come together
You bitches must play along
Now the whole world knows
How this shit goes
Y'all on ya toes
It could all be so simple
You taking family members
And turning wives to widows
This system ain't designed
For niggas to
climb out
Black skin black whip
Bout to blackout
The revolution televised
Go turn on surround sound
You can see me in the background
Marching with my people
Saying we will never back down
Or be silent
My soul not for sale
If I fall I'll prevail
I know life no fairy tale
Why lord they don't want me
To be free?
No shackles on my mind
Color outside the lines
They wish I would fall in line
Why lord they don't want me
To be free?
Praying that I see another sunrise
It's no surprise that they wanna
See my demise
Only way imma stop
If a nigga six feet deep
My soul not for sale
If I fall I'll prevail
I know life no fairy tale
Why lord they don't want me
To be free?
