Subject Matters

(专辑： Blank Canvas - 2013)

Yo, oh, oh

If it's meant to be it will be
You try so hard to keep em, forcing situations
What's the outcome if the income is of value?
Does your morals and your values
Suggest you have no right to an opinion?
Your position that you're in, does it determine
How your life will pan out?
Running a mile in these shoes for you to compete
I stand out
Would it be necessary?
Military's covering my doubt
I'm giving orders and there be no need to say "Roger that"
You should already know I got the city all in my bag
And I be in the studio all day recording them tracks
To master my craft of learning my art
Cause everything I say is coming straight from the heart
I just have to bring it together, not tear it apart
[?]
My words are just my thoughts
I'm just speaking my mind in these lines
And if you can relate, it's up to you to decide
But choose right!
And I say

So
How do you as a person
As an individual in fact
Distinguish yourself from others
Like what makes you unique?
Do you just follow the crowd
Believe everything that's told to you or
Are you strong minded in the sense where you pay no attention
To what people think about you?
(Yuh, yuh)
Cause these things count you know, these things count

We come from a land where information is elsewhere
We don't need to know
We don't need to know?
Well that's BS!
They just want us all to play the game like on DS
Trying to install eyes up in my brain
Pressing eject
Do I have the power to do so?
Just like a shotta that has the power to move
Oh, is it easy enough?
Well I don't think it's easy at all
Would you rather have a screw loose
Or just be used as a tool?
And until you think about what you would rather be
Imma keep spreading my message till it's overseas
Trying to educate the people that listen to me
Cause if you're not learning at school then listen to me
Yo I ain't trying to say I know everything
Cause nobody can know everything
Just take me in small doses like you have medicine
And I can guarantee that you will feel better when
You listen to this

So, in continuation from by previous question
Which I hope you've at least thought about...
I'm not expecting you to give me an answer, don't worry
But!
If you can work out that
Do you don't think you can work out your purpose of being here
In terms of your life?
I don't even know if I can
It's just a question I'm throwing out there
For you to think about
(Listen!)
Who knows you might work it out, who knows

Look
Understand you're worth more than gold
Never put a price on my soul
It can't be sold!
Tryna put some ice on your chain but it's getting old
You can never try to complain, this is what you chose
It's one thing tryna put on for your fam
To doing nothing but tryna please your fans
To getting colds from friends you've never had
Shit like this could really turn anyone mad
But
I ain't anyone, or better than anyone
I'm just tryna make music till it's heard by everyone
See you're shocked or just very stunned
By the way I kill flows and then bury 'em
It's that new god flow but no Mary's son
I know that my god knows I'm the chosen one
See, we laughing now at these slums
But they still laugh about where we from
Please correct me now if I'm wrong:

Man
Got a lot to say?
Well it's like fuck what you know
Listen to the song
Man
Trying to make a stamp in the industry
But it's getting kinda long
Man
Plus these people saying
"Why you come here go back to where you belong"
But home is the heart, where I'm from
And there it goes

Alright guys, that's class done for today
Please if you can
Quickly and quietly put your books on the top shelf
And any paints you've borrowed in a basket
I'm sorry if today was a bit deep
I promise next lesson won't be as deep
We will have a bit of fun
And uh, yeah, that's it you're free to go
(Ay, don't do that, put that back)
(Put it back... Good)
