[Solange, Master P - Interlude: Pedestals lyrics]
But man, I done been through it
All, so I, I said, "I wanna tell my story"
'Cause I never cried or nothing, and that's
Where the "Make 'em say uhh uhh
" that's like my pain that's basically what
It is that's my battle cry think
About it none of us are perfect
We live in an imperfect world
You know, only God can judge me
That's how I look
At it the people that's sitting
Around pointing their fingers, imagine all
The stuff they're probably
Doing whether you're
Police officers, doctors
Lawyers, presidents
Whatever, you got good and bad
In everything you know
We're putting people on a pedestal
That's just a human like
Us you know, I mean
They got more drugs in the rich
Neighborhoods than they got in
The hood a lot of their
Kids dying from overdose and
Things like that
Think about it black kids have
To figure it out! We
Don't have rehabs to go to you
Gotta rehab yourself but for us
You can't pull the plug on us and
Tell us it's over not me!
All, so I, I said, "I wanna tell my story"
'Cause I never cried or nothing, and that's
Where the "Make 'em say uhh uhh
" that's like my pain that's basically what
It is that's my battle cry think
About it none of us are perfect
We live in an imperfect world
You know, only God can judge me
That's how I look
At it the people that's sitting
Around pointing their fingers, imagine all
The stuff they're probably
Doing whether you're
Police officers, doctors
Lawyers, presidents
Whatever, you got good and bad
In everything you know
We're putting people on a pedestal
That's just a human like
Us you know, I mean
They got more drugs in the rich
Neighborhoods than they got in
The hood a lot of their
Kids dying from overdose and
Things like that
Think about it black kids have
To figure it out! We
Don't have rehabs to go to you
Gotta rehab yourself but for us
You can't pull the plug on us and
Tell us it's over not me!
