I could be wrong about you and I
Seems like we got some things to work out
Don't need to be right, just an eye for an eye
Seems we've pushed back, no need to worry now
We set the examples
Oh Lord, do we deserve the healings?
Picking up the pieces once again
Eyes on us that we can't hurt with them
When I looked no one was there
When they look, they look at how I see myself
When I looked no one was there
When they look, they look at how I see myself
Kid's got a mind, help develop that
Half what you teach, another half is the skeletons
Gotta love your skin 'cause we proud to be melanin
Gotta help them navigate direction that we headed in
We not taking shortcuts, we do it for the ones that couldn't do it before us
So it's no way the future could ever be below us
Build 'em up, build 'em up, I cannot stress that
They don't understand the version that they haven't met yet
The knowledge that you overlook will probably be your jet pack
Anybody try to tell you different, you reject that
You don't ever need a handout to get respect back
Putting in the life work, that's what we the best at
That's what we the best at
Crazy how it all move fast and get passed on
If you don't lead by example it won't last long
Happy when you know that you the family backbone
When I looked no one was there
When they look, they look at how I see myself
When I looked no one was there
When they look, they look at how I see myself
