Song Lyrics

Yeah
We trapped in a dream
We tryna wake up
Sometimes it's right and wrong but
Sometimes it's black and white
Sometimes they give you paper but
Sometimes they give you life
Sometimes you gotta run and
Sometimes you gotta fight
Cause sometimes it's right and
wrong But sometimes
You could lock me and throw
the key
But you can't stop me I know I'm free
Funny thing I been here before
Nothin' short of a miracle
Hanging bodies on weepin' trees
The whole village would come and see
Another nigga is crucified
But that nigga is you and I
It's do or die
Maybe you could do you
And I could do me and
We could be free
Maybe y'all could be true
and I could be me
Why we trapped in a dream?
I don't know
Maybe you could do you and I
Could do me and we could be free
(Repeat x2)
Maybe y'all could be true and I could be me
Why we trapped in a dream? I don't know
In the land of the give and take
Master fishin' with bigger
bait
Up and down on the interstate
I'm really hopin' we get away
Momma wishin' to see her son
But the officer seen a gun
See the masses Incarcerated
Won't let you pass on the part you
playin Don't don't don't
You could do you and I could do
me And we could be free
Maybe you could do you
And I could do me and
We could be free
Maybe you could do you
And I could do me and
We could be free
Maybe you could do you
And I could do me and
We could be
Pay attention how they
In the kitchen
Superstition for my inner vision
Intuition I dont wanna listen
But they got me fishin'
for A pot to piss in
This a dissertation I'm a
Mental patient
motivatin'
Facin' time in a matrix back to basics
They racist on a basis they love to hate us
We duck the pay cuts
And grind to make up
For the lies they make up
In the belly of the beast ten toes down
Never on my knees
This is how it is this is how it be
Sometimes in ya lifetime its the night time
When its flight time
Hope the wrong time ain't the right time
Mount zion on the lifeline
No cryin' let my light shine
Why we dyin' while you fight crime
Had a moment you forgot about it
Move to the next hot
topic
Nah God I'm still mad
While they write spells on a pill pad
Cuz I feel bad
It's in my blood like a real dad
Sometimes it's right and wrong
Sometimes it's black and white
Sometimes they give you paper
Sometimes they give you life
Sometimes it's right and wrong
Sometimes it's black and white sometimes
Sometimes they give you paper
Sometimes they give you life give you
Maybe you could do you
And I could do me and
We could be free
Maybe y'all could be true
And I could be me
Why we trapped in a dream?
I don't know
