[01:55.836]Just so thеse motherf**kers know who I am
[01:57.844]And I’m a motherf**king human, rapping lucid on the harp

[02:03.588]And I’m moving through the bullshit, by my prayers and angels
[02:06.086]Close to familiar
[02:07.084]But at best I’m a stranger
[02:08.340]But a seat at the table
[02:09.591]Eat without saying grace

[04:26.844]Show his son that there really might be magic in
[04:29.353]Dreaming,Dreaming of leaving
[04:30.851]Dreaming of flight
[04:31.596]Dreaming of building wings
[04:32.606]Jumping out ya window at night
[04:34.102]Dreaming of looking out
[04:35.102]Peeping such a freeing sight
[04:36.598]Do this all for paradise, my nigga

Tread softly
Please tread so softly
These demons haunt me
Mama keep them off me
She says
Everything gone be okay
Whispers to me

Some**mes cuts could use more dirt, The songs they sing
In the jump ropes
They have heart
Tread softly

Mama keep them off me
She says
