2:25

I'm not what you expect
I am not what you expect
I'm not what you expect
I am not what you expect
I'm not what you expect
I am not what you expect

Life will take a hold of ya
Reach down and mold ya soul into a masterpiece
Grows old but never fades
And though you askin' me why I'm cold inside
It's cuz I'm where I'm supposed to be
I'm not cold, I'm just preoccupied
No interruptions
Outside the movement's rising
People still are dying
Inside and out but no one sees it
No one sees that this is an emergency, pick up the phone it's urgent
Wash out your bleeding soul with Tide detergent
In the mean time, let it tumble dry we got work to do
Tell the other fucked up souls that we gon' rendezvoused
At 2:25
Yeah we gon' do a deep dive inside our minds

I'm not what you expect
I got my self-respect
I'm not what you expect
I am a pool of depth
I see the Future is
Wrapped up in the Now
Shed your preconceptions of it
I could show you how

I'm not what you expect
I got my self-respect
I'm not what you expect
I am a pool of depth
I see the Future is
Wrapped up in the Now
Shed your preconceptions of it
I could show you how

(V.O.) We ain't acceptin' no more scraps, nigga
We out here tryna get free
Period

I awake from a dream and stare my demons in the face
A dream built on lies meant to keep my ego safe
They say "you are me, I am you"
I turn my head away
But they reappear in the night and transform throughout the day
I call out to my ancestors
Who hold the Earth beneath my feet
Who rock and lull the ocean
Who roam the air I breathe
A dove and a butterfly flew over the scene
They whisper "Trust. Speak. Release. That's how you get free"
