D Smoke, SiR - Let Go lyrics

Listen, mm if I don't make it to my
Pillow 'fore these lights go out
Please write about me, cite my lyrics
And know they ignite my spirit
Poor babies fightin' depression been
Writin' them essays
To graduate with no stage on Zoom
Motherfucka?
Send me the link, I'll check into your room
Motherfucka cybercongratulate you
Then purposely agitate you
Askin' questions like
"How you supposed to protest with no chest?"
A big heart, but they closed
Down all the gyms, wish you had Bowflex
A Rolex won't keep you sane
And safe from danger they shut down nature
Where the fuck I'm supposed
To place my anger?
Ironically, my honesty might make
Me enemy of state i trust that God'll use my


Pen to draw His face
Still got my pistol on my waist

If I shout but ain't nobody around to hear it
How 'bout it when it echo?
I sing loud to talk to my inner child
He feel it your dreams made out of Legos
I reach out despite the feeling
They out to kill us
Get rowdy 'bout the pesos
The solution for this cold institution
Just to breathe, we need to let go (Oh)
Oh, we need to let go (Oh)
Oh, we need to let go (Oh)
We need to let go (Oh) oh, we need to let go

Seven pounds of flesh'll hang out
When it pierce your vest and it rang out
And them tears your best friend is cryin'
It appears won't rest, but a page out
Of the book of life said, "Pray loud"
Never took a knife to a gunfight
Pops got two strikes from the umpire
Stoplight, two rights on a bumped tire
And the sirens plus red and
Blue lights told me, "Pull over"
I should feel safer
But expired plates on old Toyotas
Means I can't afford to pay tickets
To two of these racist rollers
They could pull the trigger
Family can't afford to pay the lawyer
Say the word, they tell me
"You got access to a league of warriors"
Eyes haven't seen what heaven keeps
In store for us, there's more of us
But in this life, some wars we can't avoid
I wrote this the day they killed George Floyd
We won't forget your story

If I shout but ain't nobody around to hear it
How 'bout it when it echo?
I sing loud to talk to my inner child
He feel it your dreams made out of Legos
I reach out despite the feeling
They out to kill us
Get rowdy 'bout the pesos
The solution for this cold institution
Just to breathe, we need to let go (Oh)
We need to let go (Oh, shit, my nigga)
We need to let go (Oh, fuck you mean, bro?)
We need to let go (Oh)
(Nah, bro, we done let go one too many times
My nigga) we need to let go

Fuck bein' patient, give a pig a rope
He'll make a noose and fuck lettin' go
I'm all about lettin' loose
Weapons prove that talk is cheap
Chalk'll mark the spot where
All their arteries
Released the coldest blood that's known
From west to east
And we're prone to trust the liar
Even though they rest they feet upon our neck
Or shove their knee in our spine
'til we rest in peace
And they never get convicted
'Cause this crooked ass system
Protects they peeps they killed her uncle
Now who's gon protect they niece?
We built the pyramids
Why do they still experiment on the ghetto?
Was taught that if you walked the earth
Then you're my fellow
Must be naive 'cause as I weave through all
This black and white searchin' for yellow
I'll hold on to my faith and never let go
But I'm 'bout to let go

If I shout but ain't nobody around to hear it
How 'bout it when it echo?
I sing loud to talk to my inner child
He feel it your dreams made out of Legos
I reach out despite the feeling
They out to kill us
Get rowdy 'bout the pesos
The solution for this cold institution
Just to breathe, we need to let go (Oh)
Oh, we need to let go (Oh)
We need to let go (Oh)
We need to let go (Oh)
We need to let go (Oh)

We need to let go (Oh)
We need to let go (Oh)
We need to let go (Oh) we need to let go
(Oh, oh, Oh, oh, Oh, oh, Oh, oh)
