Unpopular opinion
We let clout manipulate the vision
We don't even really know the reason
We just tryna make it to the ceiling, yeah the ceiling
Unpopular opinion
What happened to genuine communion
We ate the apple now it's all clouded decisions
It's not really a literal ceiling, it's an illusion
Why are we acting this way
Why are we acting like we don't know what we supposed to do
Why are we going astray
We just be walking and talkin but don't really have a clue
Anti political! Respect is reciprocal
Shock you like pikachu! Now when you realize that what you believe in ain't really true
Acting unusual!
Girl you a dime finer than wine
Don't let IG deceive you, you beautiful
God took his time, created divine
Best not let this society poison you
Cos in due time you'll turn out just fine
And comparison's only gon eat at you and have you start thinking all pitiful
No Sterling Brown but yet this is US
Police and gangsters act in unison
And if we disagree they just grab all the guns and they don't hesitate they just lite em up
Of course they don't do this to every person
You gotta have some level of melanin concentration in your epidermis
And if you don't then you got a permit
Cos when you black you need some discernment
I know it's true that you go to school but to make it out here is contingent
And some people would rather see you lose so you gotta be hella determined
To maneuver through all the obstacles that the devil tryna keep you locked in
Unpopular opinion

Unpopular opinion
What happened to genuine communion
We ate the apple now it's all clouded decisions
It's not really a literal ceiling, it's an illusion
Yeah but this is America
Before this I grew up in probably the most corrupt nation in all of West Africa
A country you know as Nigeria
The other guys laugh in hysteria
Cos they think we lacking in stamina
But we got resources to keep us in business but mention that name they don't look at ya
Look at my hands, look at my side
Yeah look at my feet
We crucifying the righteous
And we throwing a party for thieves how could we really not see
They say if you re-elect me, obviously
I'll give you everything you need
I am the man that's gonna bring the change that you're craving to see
But that's the epitome of hypocrisy
Tragically we are still blind to see that the promises they be promising ain't manifesting And we stay complaining
The older generation they just keep on praying
The younger generation they be hip hop playing
But it's a different typa game the rich involved in
They wealth amassing, we 2K playing
I'm not smooth saying
We in for a hell of a future worse than the times that we used to
If we do not get up and prove that we can fight for what we choose to
And hopefully that's love and prosperity for all of us people
Cos we only got each other in this life of sin and confusion.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, woah
I got some GOAT's on my team ayyy
Set up our base up in Houston somebody call up Hakeem ayyy
Tryna achieve all my dreams just like Martin Luther King
And I serve the King of all Kings, shout out Jesus He supreme
