REVERIE - Black Hearts lyrics
[REVERIE - Black Hearts lyrics]
My city got problems
Mr president, why don’t you solve em
Why you choose to cause
Division with precision
Look, the system that’s in
Place ain’t fucken working
I’ve been to Ferguson
Seen people live like they ain’t worth a shit
My people smoking, tweeking, codeine
Percocetting it’s upsetting
So broke and hungry, antsy, bust a 2-11
Class in session
This confession gon make people hate
Me cuz I’m honest
My culture is addicted to the chaos
No days off
Got juvenile delinquents doing years in juvey
If only you knew the
Injustices and corruption
One day it’s gon be in movies
How do we change the cycle
They say "don’t play the victim"
Like it’s easy to ignore discrimination and
Hide it from the children
Like they ain’t gon experience it
In the real world
Educate the youth and talk about reality so
They could get a feel for it
Half my childhood friends doing life
Locked up in the feds, or dead
So don’t talk to me about equality
Cuz all I see is hypocrisy
I’m tryna live my life, but I’m lost
My addictions rotate
But liquor is my new favorite
I’m tryna live my life, but I’m lost
Liquor store on every corner
How can I resist temptation?
I’m tryna live my life, but I’m lost
My big brother out there banging
And my daddy ain’t around
I’m tryna live my life, but I’m lost
How can I escape when I’m
Trapped inside this town
I’m human, I’m hypocrisy
Exist with instability
Watch yo friends, watch yo enemies
Business partners ain’t friends to me
She's slanging out that pusssy
Cuz she got no other options
She’s 15, in a sick dream
And ain't nobody talking no sense, no rules
No curfew
No stress and no school, no parents
Abueltita can’t even speak her language
Broken English broken ego, broken dreams
A hopeless mind state
I probably woulda been friends with
Her back in my day
Gotta hide the pain- cuz tears
They bring shame when rain is all you see
It’s hard to get up out the game
Today I’m doin okay sometimes I’m suicidal
I am my own worst enemy
I am my biggest rival
I really miss you, I cried for you today
I hate hearing your name
Standing over your grave
Sometimes I think I’m crazy
I know that I’m insane
You’ll never understand my past
So don’t speak up on my name
I’m tryna live my life, but I’m lost
My addictions rotate
But liquor is my new favorite
I’m tryna live my life, but I’m lost
Liquor store on every corner- how
Could I resist temptation
I’m tryna live my life, but I’m lost
My big brother out there banging
And my daddy ain’t around
I’m tryna live my life, but I’m lost
How can I escape when I’m
Trapped inside this town
Mr president, why don’t you solve em
Why you choose to cause
