    I’m tired of this cycle young black man gets killed before he’s able to become an idol. Don’t want to but gotta keep strap on me for survival. And I get labeled the wrong thing for trying to protect my brother Michael. The world builds black men up just for the people in it to bring us down. When was the last time I got called back for a job and now all I can do is sell crack in my hometown. And it said to say because 10 years ago I had dreams and now they all came crashing down some people think this life is really unrealistic but if you ask the black man standing next to you I’d bet he say isn’t. We from two different worlds and yours is full of hate and you think we in the wrong for trying to keep a roof over our heads and food on our child’s plate. Well this is the society we live in and y’all made it this way. I’m tired of getting judged every time that I walk out the house, people staring me funny, and smart remarks like who let the dog out the doghouse. What y’all don’t understand is I got a life too, I got a wife too, I got feelings too but that don’t even make sense to you. I had dreams too but obviously I didn’t dream hard because by the time I was 18 I was locked up behind bars for speaking the truth And they said I was guilty but had no proof that I had done anything wrong and now I’m tryin to prove my innocence and that’s the reason I’m singing this song breaking down in tears in the booth, cause I’m finally free, god damn what took so long

      The system is rigged against black ppl there is almost no way you can win, I pray for you and the only way we can stop this is thru God and Jesus, dm on insta @kittleszn if ur ever feeling bad and need someone to talk to

    Tryna break this curse
    Seen to many in the hearse
    What’s worse
    Realizing reality but don’t chase yo dreams or livin all in a blur
    He said he wanna take his chains off
    We speak one word they blow our brains out
    Shut ya mouth
    You don’t get too speak
    Unless you wanna feel the lead wit some heat
    Growing up momma told me I was unique
    I think….
    What’s unique about me if I’m scared in the streets
    We check in the shadows make sure no one following
    Your heart gets hollow G
    Next second your lying there tryna too gasp and breathe
    While they laughing you thought you checked your surroundings
    But realize it’s yo own blood that be back stabbing
    You think lastly
    What did I do?
    A kid that barely graduated from high school
    Sluffing classes n smoking weed thinking I was cool
    Tryna fit into ma pops shoes
    But I had no clue what I was filling
    Half of my life I was the villain
    Momma had cancer
    Grandma passed away
    Who do I trust in this life we call a game
    With broken pieces that just lay
    Idk im lost im a stray
    But I know one day
    I’ll be the one that say check mate

    [Verse 1]
And I'm in denial
And it don't take no X-Ray to see right through my smile
I know, I be on the go
And there ain't no drink out there that can numb my soul
Oh no

[Hook]
All we wanna do is take the chains off
All we wanna do is break the chains off
All we wanna do is be free
All we wanna do is be free
All we wanna do is take the chains off
All we wanna do is break the chains off
All we wanna do is be free
All we wanna do is be free

[Verse 2]
Can you tell me why
Every time I step outside I see my people die
I'm lettin' you know
That there ain't no gun they make that can kill my soul
Oh no

[Hook]
All we wanna do is take the chains off
All we wanna do is break the chains off
All we wanna do is be free
All we wanna do is be free
All we wanna do is take the chains off
All we wanna do is break the chains off
All we wanna do is be free
All we wanna do is be free

[Verse 3]
Forget this chain, cause this ain't me
Though I'm eternally grateful to Jay Z
We so elated, we celebrated like Obama waited until his last day in office to tell the nation, brothers is getting their reparations, hey
A man can dream, can't he?
No disrespect, in terms of change I haven't seen any
Maybe he had good intentions but was stifled by the system
And was sad to learn that he actually couldn't bring any
That's what I get for thinking, this world is fair
They let a brother steer the ship
And never told him that the ship was sinkin'
But I got other shit to think about, like my bank account
Forget that watch, you paid too much for it
You 'ought to be ashamed
When brothers back home be dreading when the seasons change
Cause they ain't got no heat and they ain't got no AC
WalMart distribution fired my homie, he just had a baby
You wonder why it's been so many B and E's lately
While brothers from the hood shooting like this is TNT lately
And since all the ballers leaving college early
I turn on the TV and don't see no brothers with degrees lately

[Bridge]
Are we all alone, fighting on our own
Please give me a chance, I don't wanna dance
Somethings got me down, I will stand my ground
Don't just stand around, don't just stand around

[Outro]
All we wanna do is be free
All we wanna do is be free
All we wanna do is take the chains off..

    I was once that ain't have shit typa nigga
    Well I turn two quarters to a brick who figured
    Just me an bro tryna put our city on
    I write just not I love you typa song
    I don't catch feelings fast enough
    Maybe somethings wrong
    Maybe being me is what got us envolved
    But
    I don't want you leaving at all
    New year new me who the fuck are y'all
    Just another mothafucka tryna be strong
    Knowing it ain't what they wanted at all
    Life has meaning also a cost
    Maybe that's where they went wrong
    We so stuck up thinking about how we gonna conquer the loft
    Which in reality were in the basement making music
    I wonder if you think about me when I'm gone
    I wish there was something missing
    But the pieces are right here
    Just no time to put them back together
    One day wishing life was better
    I promise I'll get my family out the trenches
    Even if that means me making music just for y'all feelings
    You find it appealing
    I find it revealing
    Deep sorrows
    Don't pay for love if it don't come with a receipt
    Because between you an me
    I don't think we would be
    Honestly I don't think we have a connection
    You want the money fame excetera
    I want the only you type of girl
    It's just hard to find it in this world

    Kneeling to protest anthems for a country that brave men chose to die for
    Mothers on their knees praying with bibles
    In hopes their sons won't get caught by another mans rifle
    And Shipped back in boxes with their eyes closed
    The same mothers raised their kids in cities filled with hatred
    Where cops be too shook to wield heat so they let off at the 1st sign of retaliation
    The system got his back so he gets away with just a public statement
    And we forget about the kids blood that stained the pavement

    Left with out a trace
    My DNA is pushing up the bass
    Wasting time that’s for those
    Who have time to waste
    I leave mark of a 1000 Spartans
    Carefully choreographing my art
    I spit filthy
    Only our god can heal me
    Wealthy every word
    Carefully I observed
    Barley turned to hourly they tuned in just to hear me
    Now That’s power G
    Friends turned to Hennessey enemies A rose sermon for their future
    Currently working on a mixtape
    Permanent on my earning I’m currently certainly the best
    Affirmative action no one in the game is matching
    Looking to land another tax bracket
    Still broke Hart cold spitting foul now light the flame
    You rich that’s cool still I remain
    Holding in the pain
    Tainted by the Lord in the world we call home I’m rank 1

    hey, that’s my take, but now i’ll hop off, and go back to being great
    great ones know it’s not the money or the fame, but respect that isn’t earned that’s gonna hurt you to the grave
    you could stress out, while i smoke on slurricane
    you gone pass out, if you smoking with me
    chilling in dior, but who’s next to me?
    italiano twins in the latest fashion
    brunette hair, yea it shines in the wind,
    come a little closer lemme take you for a spin,
    treat your really nice, take you back to the crib
