Earl Sweatshirt, Keorapetse Kgositsile, Cheryl Harris - Playing Possum lyrics

To my mentors and comrades in arms
Those presence and those gone on
Thank you to my family
(Can you see them now?)
To my partner Mysteria who I love and
Depend on more than I can say
(For some children)
To my son Thebe (Words like)
Cultural worker and student of life (Home)
Whose growth and insights inspire me
A thousand kisses
(Could not carry any possible meaning)
Thank you to my brothers (But displaced)
My niece (Border)
My nephews, my sisters, my friends (Refugee)
My whole family network (Consider)
Who have let me be distracted
And inconsistent in my intention
(The premature daily death of their dreams)
Who've put up with crazy schedules
Short tempers, mad dashes, and all the rest
(Consider what staggering memories
Frighten and abort
The hope that should have been
Perhaps I should just borrow
The rememberer’s voice again
While I can and say) you know the real deal
("To have a home is not a favor")
