Saba, Cheflee - Free Samples lyrics

Been in a daze since the ink hit the seam now
I think it's time for me to play
My runnin' days read the moment of me now
I won't stop until I find a way home
The summer's gaze gives me
A tingling ease now
Anticipate a veil of shade
But the shade is a gift from the tree now
I won't stop until I see
The change I have made

Damn, it's been a while since
Nights we saw you
Under the viaduct, if it's fire, run, run
To everybody that look like us
Who fam don't talk when they tired
There's more than what meets your eyelids
And live in the park just dyin' make
You forget what you fight about
Plus what good is that flight? You
Ain't flyin' out your entire house
From Camry cars to the fancy
All without any dark kids in the train car
Hustlin' candy bars to play basketball
I still get nostalgic seein' houses
That my family lost they wished upon a star
I caught it like I'm Randy Moss
When granny fought for her property
She would turn down any cost
I'm the grandson of Carl who
Lived across from the fosters
Then fostered me to spread
Love through holiday poverty
Hand-me downs I was given
I thought they were bought for me
A tale of two Chicagos
This gets confused commonly 'Cause one
You're commemorated if you're
The hot commodity
I tried that invincible shit
But the principle is
When there's niggas defendin' your wig
Then it's a pendulum shift
I tried to spend a lil'
Less like a minimalist
But then I can confess that this
Gets harder the bigger you get
