This a topic I didn’t wanna touch
We’re so used to being painted
with a broad brush
There's a lot of anger
boiling in this pot
Look I don’t have the answers
But it’s time we talked about us
There’s a lost trust
we can see it’s tangible
I don’t trust you and you
don’t trust me
so we keep it all casual
Maybe it’s just easier to
keep it moving
You do you and I’ll do me
It’s all Gucci
We don’t gotta cross paths
or look at each other
No need to pay attention
to your struggle
I’m busy getting mine
so I pay you no mind
As long as I’m quiet
I’ll be doing just fine
I know it’s taboo to
rock the boat like this
But it’s time to rip the scales out
from our eye lids
In order to build a better future
for our kids
We need to take an honest
look at all of our shit
There’s a ring around the have nots
They laugh while you dance
like a mascot
Ashes Ashes
We all fall down
They consider you a Sasquatch
Don’t worry
thy pocket’s full of cash crops
Ashes Ashes
We all fall down
Ignorance begets more ignorance
Respect has to go both ways
Why minimize a people
for an argument’s sake
How’d we learn to hate a person
by the shade of their face
I’m shaking my head
this scarcity mindsets
about to kill us all
Plus the goofy ones
weaponize the word of God
Y’all wanna play oppression olympics
Fine But don’t ever say
you care for my village
Don’t act like you care
for my healing
I don’t see the receipts
your paper trail’s
like a cat on a leash
If you can’t see a problem
I’ll just hold my peace
Every auntie beat down
on the cold concrete
is a travesty no matter
how you try to spin it
Some says it’s not a big deal
it’s only been this year
I understand they have to be
extreme to get a point across
Downplay our history
to lift a burning cross
There’s a ring around the have nots
They laugh while you dance
like a mascot
Ashes Ashes
We all fall down
They consider you as Sasquatch
Don’t worry
thy pocket’s full of cash crops
Ashes Ashes
We all fall down
Ashes Ashes Ashes
We all fall We all fall
We all fall down
Ashes Ashes Ashes
We all fall We all fall
We all fall down
Is it justice for all or just the optics
Keep on opting for options
with guap in its pockets
But I can’t seem to shake off
this strange little feeling
Our stories aren’t appealing
Well who am I kidding
Why’d I need their approval to
tell me what I should do
The conditioning is baked in
a lot to undo
Waiting for the powers
that be to tell us how to think
Money grabbers use our struggles
for their marketing schemes
I’ve been mocked at
so I talk back with a riddle
Don’t you speak to me like
all the other people
you’ve belittled
I can finally breathe
and take my space
Planted both of my feet
now I’m proud of my place
But it’s Parasite playing out
in real time
We’re fortifying walls
drawing real lines
I’m not choosing an agenda
these are real lives
I’m trying to reconcile
and give a real try
