Self-Provoked - Grapevine lyrics
[Self-Provoked - Grapevine lyrics]
Yo, flags burned, rebellion is organized
These leaders are fake
You can see it in their eyes
Well paid actors entertaining us all
Paranoia brought me withdrawals from
Issues at large
Take your head the media for a second
Pointing fingers when the same
Thing disposing you
Is the same thing you protecting
Infected brains won’t ever think the same
Chemicals are gained, knowledge dismissed
No hug no kiss just knives and gun clips
Insults and bare fists
They say for active, get smart with practice
Aware but not scared, tensed up but prepared
Fair ain’t common here
Where the people don’t care
Look, my mental is boxing with
Thoughts that is coming intrusively
Or they calling
'cause they confusing me often
I’m not violent, I’m not mad
But, I feel something within
That makes me feel
Like it crossed that line so thin
But, if I’m blind, how can I find
My mistakes embedded up inside my mind?
It takes time to see the real you
After all that you learned and
Had to go through (But, but)
But, if I’m blind, how can I find
My mistakes embedded up inside my mind?
It takes time to see the real you
After all that you learned and
Had to go through, true
(Yo, Aight)
Seen him in the corner and he’s actin’ tough
Talk alone with him and he’s had enough
But when he’s his homies he has front
He knows he’s too smart for this kinda stuff
(Look) see that was my life tryna fit
In with the ones shootin’
Still in high school
Waitin’ for that gang recruitin’
Heard if you ain’t with it
You the one they bootin’
Got socked up rankin’ or actin’ stupid
Remember life is bigger than you think it is
Early twenties
Learnin’ more than I ever did as a kid
I’ve had my beefs but that don’t
Mean I go out and kill
Risk my life for some shit
I’ll forget after I chill
It’s time to smarten up and
Figure out the plan kill the ego
Why we mad at each other? Like goddamn
Put the focus on some beneficial shit
Mothafuckas gon’ stay fooled by these
False images from these suckers, like
But, if I’m blind, how can I find
My mistakes embedded up inside my mind?
It takes time to see the real you
After all that you learned and
Had to go through (But, but)
But, if I’m blind, how can I find
My mistakes embedded up inside my mind?
It takes time to see the real you
After all that you learned and
Had to go through
