On We Go (feat. Shishani)

lyrics

Verse 1st

I started it, coming up with nothing but a starter kit
Back in eighth grade when everybody rocked a starter fit
Hearing, they hard of it, led em where the water sit
Did it for the fun but maybe more for the art of it
Thought of it, a long time ago
Looking at the scenes, I feign, just to be a part of it
Pardoned it, the death penalty given Hip Hop
Convicted up on charges forcing artists’ to slaughter it
Fought with it, beat the case and free now
But hold on, back to get my peeps out, Chicago to the Deep South
Get up out your seats while I audit it
See you overdue for G-DO beats with my heart in it
Need a revolution in these streets; I play my part in it
Forcing evolution to its feet like Charles Darwin did, Marvin did
Gone to meet the man like James Baldwin did, hauling it
The world on my back like I’m Atlas holding all of it

Chorus

Verse 2nd

Under an attack and we at risk and if you want you can bet this
I put it on my breakfast the bacon is coming for your neck next
Coming to collect more than checks or your necklace
They gunning for the set list
Only want you bumping ignorance and something sexist
Reckless, left with, nothing to protect this
Except for my expression, being the Xception
Breathless, written in stone
This a hieroglyphic image spitting a poem
And blessed with, everything I need ‘til I’m resting
Sowing in a legendary seed through these segments
To grow into the very thing we need for these questions
Call it a confession, call in a professor
She’ll say it’s just a lesson, the child of a lesser
Known to act wild, more than just aggressive
They say its Chit-Town; I say that’s just the dressing
The food is the message, for fools and the wretched
Whether you confused or you loosing direction
Looking for a clue or a crew for protection
Look inside of you until we cruise to the nexus, move

Chorus

Verse 3rd

Second to none trekking the slums reflecting the hums
To every section where they run to the beating of drums
Coming this way or that one, a black fist or a black gun
Black listed under the black sons
The facts twisted they believe that we act dumb, but
Perhaps if its just a tactic to act numb
A bold shield a cold world with cold deals
Cold meals cold shoulders where having hope kills
And how to cope feels like having a sob
And having to rob feels like an average job, why
Stay mad at the mob try and listen to em
If you knew what they knew you might give in to em
But the truth is you already know
If you not marching with em then you probably stole
What they demanding, nothing outlandish just chances
To breath free of fear they only wanted if they hands is
Tied behind they backs like bandits
Cries of the beaten and the broken defines what my band is
Fly ‘til we land and arrive where the plan is
For you and I to look into our eyes for the answers
