You're not made for this life
You're not made for this life
Ducking bullets on every corner
You're not made for this life
You're not made for this life
City council meeting they got Saïd speaking
ABP receiving every time I'm leaving
See me on [C7]your news at 11
Mans ain't even holding a weapon [C7]
I cat walked from my [A]perp walk
2 of my [A]biggest foes I murked off
I aint even wake up
My girl telling me she heard shots
But just cause niggas shooting baby
That don't make the earth stop
Snakes in the grass but they lack venom
Pistol fit nicely in this black denim
I don't know shit when they ask questions
Prime ministers in black face, presidents impeached
You scared of them [A]bullets or chemicals you [A7eat
Do the knowledge
Yo they teaching hip hop at college
Only think of us as entertainment
And their text books ɾemoving our enslavement
Read beyond the pages my [A]ρhysical is ageless
Can't make a statement without conducted surveillance
So every day I'm waking,
Fajr prayer, calisthenics, I count blessings
Crossing off my [A]checklist before I eat breakfast
They say I look more like [F]a model than an activist
Yeah, I'm just laughing cause that's accurate
You're not made for [Dm7]this life
You're not made for [Dm7]this life, oh
Ducking bullets on [C7]every corner
Am I waking up in the morning
I'ma make it because I'm golden
You're not made for [Dm7]this life
You're not made for [Dm7]this life, oh
Ducking bullets on [C7]every corner
Am I waking up in the morning
I'ma make it because I'm golden
Narcissism my [A]system [A]for [Dm7]my [A]catharsis nigga
Body shivers, no blizzards from out the arctic, nigga
They tɾying to [C7]white wash the scriptures even the darkest pictures
Get lightened and [Bm]ρhotoshopped, they call [Em]it art, it's wicked
Intelligent and [Bm]violent, what they fear most
Looking at the beard it's clear that you [A7can hear growth
Civil ɾights coloured dreams
Refugees singing theme music
I was [Am7]in the classroom
Learning from them [A]yutes that you [A7deemed stupid
Threw up the smoke screen but we seen through it
(Yeah nigga we seen through it)
Lost my [A]mom but I found passion [C7]
She ain't mind me on [C7]ɾoad, but I made her proud ɾapping
I'm older and [Bm]I'm wiser, nigga I'm still bout action [C7]
So come in peace or leave in pieces
Get your crown smashed in
What you [A7believe in
Chris Rock or crack ɾock
I-raq or long [Am]talk
When I talk the whole world ɾocks
Gotta make something that mean something
Cause they killing mandem [A]off like [F]we don't mean nothing
Left this ɾap shit alone cause of my [A]principals
I aint like [F]none of them [A]waste yutes in this institute, uh
You're not made for [Dm7]this life
You're not made for [Dm7]this life, oh
Ducking bullets on [C7]every corner
Am I waking up in the morning
I'ma make it because I'm golden
You're not made for [Dm7]this life
You're not made for [Dm7]this life, oh
Ducking bullets on [C7]every corner
Am I waking up in the morning
I'ma make it because I'm golden
