lirik lagu ÷ – byron henderson

[intro]
the greatness of the future lies in righting the wrongs of the past
you are the light in the future’s darkness
unlearn the lies told (don’t back down)
find magic in your reflection (don’t forget)
seek the truth (love yourself)
and once you realize that it’s you, you’ll find peace
yeah, yeah
look, look

[verse 1]
karma’s coming quick as bullets fly
try to numb yourself with drugs and liquor till the feelings die
be real or lie, and social media will definitely see to it and leave you vilified
before you k!ll someone that looks like you, better k!ll your pride
folks are putting jewels in their head cause their thoughts are empty
clout will cost you peace of mind, and you’ll find that they’ve lost plenty
people claim they feel alone, but nah, they just live like it
alienating friends with sense, like millions help them live righteous, whoa wait
paranoia’s got you out here bout to catch a whole case
don’t let validation choose the path your freaking soul takes
older generations look at us like failures
wonder where we got it from, but i bet they’re too afraid to tell us they neglected us
pushed insecurities, verbal abuse, and how they pressured us
oh, they ain’t feeling me, ha
that’s cute, just don’t press your luck
don’t compare struggles because your dreams died
right beside brenda’s baby where your self esteem lies
[hook]
lost in a world that isn’t meant for me
i feel like i’ve been here forever, talking centuries
look at my skin, you mention culture, we’re the centerpiece
went to school, vision’s skewed, who’s the enemy?

so, so who gon’ look out for me when i need them to?
want better for us, but it don’t seem like my people do
where did the love go?
who do i trust, whoa
why are you saving a slug for me?
cause freedom ain’t free, and we love the breeze

[verse 2]
i’m the changing of the guard, a pen sharp as swords
the land of the facades, if i wrote, i would catch a charge
of course, each generation has bad apples, for sure
but some of y’all were never with us, had better luck with the force
some of y’all were with us, but never bothered to show it
always had a house to live in, yet i was still homeless
dark as oblivion, yet i’m bright as the sun
they no longer manufacture the type of cloth i am from
i’m checking the way that people turn a blind eye to how we’re treated
high hopes to see our bloodlines die
flipping the script to fit their narratives, they say we fit descriptions just to bury us
the well of lies never runs dry
wish that women knew their features never needed alterations
wish they had someone to build them up, so they grew to embrace this truth
trust your kid over anyone that you claim you knew, family included
love lost, innocence tainted too
[hook]
lost in a world that isn’t meant for me
i feel like i’ve been here forever, talking centuries
look at my skin, you mention culture, we’re the centerpiece
went to school, vision’s skewed, who’s the enemy?

[outro]
you’re looking at the future, uh
take your flag and bleed it dry, like this country did so many
now you know the reasons why i don’t trust a thing but my gut
no i don’t trust a soul, but my loves
ak, reaching for the sky

you’re looking at the future
take your flag and bleed it dry
tell your president to prove himself
we no longer believe in lies, yeah
we no longer believe in lies
chase your goals, and treat your head like snoop and wiz
keep it high (keep it high)
