motif - kiii & jakhari smith lyrics

verse 1: kiii

it was a rainy day in february ninety four
a little kiii was born
post rodney king era tv screen shown
fresh prince of bel air mtv was on
cold war ended now bill clinton
internet expansion that boy witnessed
crime bill extended we facing prison
welfare reform his mom chose different
learned to get it on his own
yet the throne missin
sacramento gangs
had the wrong mission
pac and big lost it all
on television
no one truly knew the truth
from the politickin
kiii’s fathеr planted the seeds
a beat makеr
i fell in love with rap
when i seen his paper
ever since then i was a chance taker
the world failed to contain
this odd breaker
this sh*t is really just a gamble though
most of us addicted

hook

i’m in denial
this can’t be life
what if it is

verse 2: jakhari smith

trying to make a change
twelve k!ll us dead it’s a shame
we all look around like who to blame
this sh*t is insane
stuck with all this trauma in our brain huh
lately it’s been hard to maintain
never thought twice before you k!lled another brother
every shot you rung out brought more pain to his mother
youngins lose they life and still got more to discover
repeating all these cycles leave our families here to suffer
i said who’s that creeping through my window
paranoid as sh*t everywhere is where i can’t go
gotta watch your back for the streets and the popo
tryna call a cop for some help and they a no show
trying to prevail while we living up in h*ll
you can never feel all my pain on my ideal
locked up in my mind
like i’m locked up in a cell
i don’t know how i can truly heal
see it through

hook

i’m in denial
this can’t be life
what if it is

verse 3: kiii

as obama led his second term
i headlined shows
at the highest ranked college
hard to juggle em both
the physics professor failed me
saw that chain on my neck
behind the scenes
ran outta food
and needed light to reflect
he went and said i ranked the lowest
little did he know
i’d navigate the five oceans
despite his quotients
when zimmerman was acquitted
felt like we couldn’t fly
the mayans predicted dates
charted fate in the sky
it was now the streaming era
my dilemma was pride
sellin my cd roms
eventually would decline
resented the industry
for every lie that it told
wasn’t a blueprint yet
for the dots and the coles
it’s like everywhere i looked
i was just further from home
so at the time of graduation
it was one of my lows
with a year left
how you celebrate
you was gone
still hard to explain the feelin
seemed like something was owed
you know it was like i was my own worst enemy
man it took me years to overcome that sh*t man
for real

this can’t be life
what if it is

oooooooooh
