Us

We at that point where we gotta start doing for self
No more time to point fingers and place blame
Let's get up

We out here tryna dodge prison, in the valley of decision
One foot in this dirty world and the other in religion
Relationships are broken (why?), 'cause everybody's roachin'
And most of them is still hanging, just going through the motions
And unity is dying, and money problems persistent
Nobody wants to work to get on top, they want it instant
When we get it, we abuse it 'cause we don't know how to use it 
And usually, as soon as we do we foolishly lose it
Before others you question, first do a self-assessment
'Cause what you hate about them, you might be a reflection
You wonder why you grieving and no success you reachin'?
The way you are is shaped by the company that you keepin'
You negative and sensitive and dwelling on the worst part
And every time you don't win is always someone's else fault
And when it fall apart and your plan get that hole in it
You blame the world instead of acknowledging your role in it

We still going through so much
(They still got us going through it, mayne)
Everything falls on US
(Everything, they wanna blame it on the ghetto)
We feeling no love, no trust
(Don't nobody care about you, man, let's unify)
Everything falls on US
('Cause if we don't, we all soon to die)

Don't be gassed by the flashes, this world is all fraud
See a humble man rises, the arrogant fall hard
Friends will sell you out fast and they proving is true
'Cause you ridin' for them, that don't mean they'll do it for you
An intuitive few suffered to make sure anyone else stray
It's crazy, 'cause my love for them is stronger than their self-hate
Meanwhile I'm practicing on getting it right
I might be the worst person that I ever met in my life
These canned men they gon' have to come again, it's like a re-release
I break ties with fake friends like it's three a piece
How can I trust that I'll be good in the long run
When everybody at my intervention need their own done
I think I need some more time to assist this
Waking up from eight hours of sleep and still restless
I'm having a big bash for me, and everyone I mess with
Got a blank sheet on my desk - (What is that?) - My guests list

We still going through so much
(They still got us going through it, mayne)
Everything falls on US
(Everything, they wanna blame it on the ghetto)
We feeling no love, no trust
(Don't nobody care about you, man, let's unify)
Everything falls on US
('Cause if we don't, we all soon to die)

Somebody need to give the judge a jail sentence
So he can know how it feels to live in hell with us
I know you see us as animals, dumb and lower status
But we don't deserve all that time you throwing at us
We got the game so wrig, we almost gotta lose
Locking us up for selling something that you probably use
You want slavery, so that's the solution
See, it's still legal if you in jail, that's in the constitution
They come home and no job, so they return to you
Dollars needed so they get popped for tryna earn a few
And we don't take responsibility, we burn 'em too
Mad at what our children do when we the ones  they learned it through
You think you ballin' 'cause you got a chain, a car, you dumb
The true baller is the company you bought it from
How come we hate each other shine? What's the matter, dude
But once I lose you got that "better him than me" attitude

We still going through so much
(They still got us going through it, mayne)
Everything falls on US
(Everything, they wanna blame it on the ghetto)
We feeling no love, no trust
(Don't nobody care about you, man, let's unify)
Everything falls on US
('Cause if we don't, we all soon to die)
