clarence the kid - i need good news lyrics

[verse 1: clarence the kid]
look, what a world we been living in
wish the year would begin again
maybe then i could get it in when i had sh+t
get up in the club with all the ratchets, going bat sh+t
whoa, virus got me fired from a higher place
i done grinded all my life just to get erased (d+mn)
angry but i really didn’t have no time to waste
i buckled down to work, ended up unbuckling pants
quarantine feeling like a prison
so you know a n+gga need some visits
i should be repenting, but i’ve been lonely as f+ck
what i really think i need is some love
i been driven by l+st, so my rap sh+t’s rusting away
and my bank account’s still underpaid
i stay posted up in bed with some cartoons
watching some news source telling us there’s still cases
what a sad day (d+mn)
matter fact what a sad year
this is ten times worse than the past years
got racism running rampant
but the racism been happening
this ain’t nothing new
dropped “can you hear us now?” to expose the truth
the government never cared what we’re living through
we screaming out “black lives” but they yelling “blue”
so the police line looking like some soldiers do
that’s some crazy sh+t
country being run by an idiot (f+ck him)
but the only other candidates are a pedophile
and a hero who ain’t fit for being president
like in any way
i need good news, sh+t’s weighing on me
i can feel the devil still preying on me
got too many thots in my head
wanna drop songs but i feel like n0body’s waiting on me
d+mn

[hook: clarence the kid]
i just need good news (good news)
i need some soul food (soul food)
i just wanna smile again (yeah)
i just need good news (good news)
i need some soul food, yeah (soul food)
i just wanna smile

i need good news, yeah
aye, i need soul food, yeah
aye, i just wanna, i just wanna
i just wanna, ah, i just wanna, ah
i need good news, yeah
aye, i need soul food, yeah
what, i just wanna
look

[verse 2: clarence the kid]
ever since may when i saw sirens
and the boys in the blue asking for my license
and my paperwork, i was shaking in the whip
praying up to god that this car wouldn’t be my coffin
left nauseous, sick to my stomach bro
mama raised me up like a huxtable
don’t swear, don’t drink, don’t smoke
dress nice, study hard, didn’t none of it matter though
all they ever see is a black n+gga
ain’t n0body care about the other sh+t
just graduated usc, next week
might see my eulogy on news channel six
nothing’s guaranteed in this cold world
they gon’ do everything they can do
just to make sure that they silence you
f+ck it, i’ll speak my truth
i am too valuable
look, look, yeah
i feel like the road to liberation been a long one
i just write these songs cuz
it’s been weighing on me and i need an outlet
how does something like this make somebody hate us
all we want is to be free
in a country that my people built from ground up
back when all my people were still bound up
mass incarceration got me down cuz
black is beautiful, i’ll scream it out
but the system only ever wants to drown us
f+ck
[hook: clarence the kid]
i just need good news
i need some soul food, yeah
i just wanna smile again
i need some good news
i need some soul food, yeah
i just wanna smile

i need good news, yeah
aye, i need soul food, yeah
aye, i just wanna,ah, i just wanna, eh
i just wanna, ah, i just wanna, ooh
i need good news, yeah
aye, i need soul food, yeah
what, i just wanna +
look

[verse 3: clarence the kid]
man we’re living in dark times (dark times)
no punchlines, just observations (yuh)
we spend everyday debating
but no one’s having conversations
the f+ck is wrong with this nation?
my people losing lives to racists
there’s blood all in the water
supreme court’s on some fake sh+t
breonna taken, i can’t take this
my n+gga i’m ready for war
the coppers said they were all ready too
and they k!lled all my n+ggas for sport
i’m a young black boy, i got a target on my back
i came up in a cul de sac (don’t matter)
and i might still get capped like that
