Dizzy Wright - Killem with Kindness lyrics

Yo Yo, This For All My Progressive Thinkers

Cautious with the image that I'm givin'
What used to be appealin' is
The shit that I'm resentin'
Feel like I ain't livin'
I'm dealin' with so much
On the low, I'm actin' tough
But I ain't been happy in a minute
And what's crazy is this
Is just the beginning
Ridin' 'round Vegas tryna build my foundation
That immediate happiness is awaitin'
But I feel it's overrated
I'm keepin' a clear conscience
(keep it cool) i just wanna do my own thing
A good heart but what if I'm out here
Fightin' for the wrong things?
Became a daddy and started
Watching my behavior helpin' niggas out
But niggas runnin' out of favors
It ain't about the paper
It's about what you gon' do with it
You on your music tip, but tell me
Is you the creator? (what you create)
These niggas don't know how to act
I should've been a school counselor
To see what they'd get out of that
All I wanna do is help, if it's a little
Got up in this game to really
Try and make a change wanna settle down
But this shit is so confusin'
I'm just goin' through a stage where
I'm learnin' how to be brave
(keep your head up)
Fuck a phase, this is life, all I need is me
Look into my daughter's eyes and then
I get the water eyes if I die, I pray to God
She know her father tried, word (Word, Word)

Cause we just wanna live our lives
Embraced faith, went against all odds
In our eyes, to judge niggas
That is not our job
To be a man, it is not that hard
We gon' kill 'em with kindness
When they try to take you
Out your comfort zone
Ayo, it's time to be a man, understand
We gon' kill 'em with kindness
And you know you gotta fuckin' hold your own
Can't let them take us away from the fam'
We gon' kill 'em with kindness

Now I'm thinkin' in reality
(what you thinking)
Actually, I was thinkin' 'bout stability
I watched my single mother's
Feet hurt for years
Just to barely pay the bills -
I don't know, that shit's killin' me
But I don't wanna live like that
Mama, I don't wanna see you live like that
I told my little brothers we
Can build a new life
For the ones that gave us life
We can give that back
I know we tend to hold grudges
I can't control it
I'm unfolding the emotion that I'm holdin'
Hope the way I saw it ain't
The way I won't approach it
I'm just focused on the better me
This rap shit is my pedigree
(it's all i got)
Lately I've been feelin' life testin' me
She say she down, and she say she wanna ride
Release the need to please or
Be validated by eyes in disguise
I'm just focused on what makes me come alive
(what makes me come alive)
I've learned not to take nothin' personal
Bad environments have been my disadvantage
Not tryna be accepted
It stepped me out of my box
And now these niggas watch me like
I got all of the answers
(got all of the answers)
But this is what I've built for myself
Realistic, always had to keep
It real with myself so when they talk
And it's negative or it's false
We channel out the negative
Thoughts without any help

Cause we just wanna live our lives
Embraced faith, went against all odds
In our eyes, to judge niggas
That is not our job
To be a man, it is not that hard
We gon' kill 'em with kindness
When they try to take you
Out your comfort zone
Ayo, it's time to be a man, understand
We gon' kill 'em with kindness
And you know you gotta fuckin' hold your own
Can't let them take us away from the fam'
We gon' kill 'em with kindness
