logic - peace love & positivity lyrics
[verse]
retrospect got me in a state of constant reflection
corrections, i was destined, manifestin’ somethin’ much different
i’m livin’ this way, off of what should’ve been my fate
livin’ in the constant state of “what the f+ck should i create?”
’cause i can do it all, yo
pickin’ the pen up when i’m feelin’ pent up
like a k9 when he pickin’ the scent up
sevеnteen in the stair—, yo
ayy, seventeen in thе stairway, hustlin’ drugs
listenin’ to grandmaster by gza and muggs
my mama wildin’ while i’m tryna find my style in the game
while the legends was k!llin’ it, i was crawlin’ in the game
it’s all the same, from maryland out to spain
you know we keepin’ that same train of thought
sh+t that can’t be bought but only taught by millions of dollars
now look what that there done brought us, more problems
only when you understand ’em, can you solve ’em
feel like , while the rest revolvin’ ’round the dollar
word to allah, i can only hope the best for the rest of this world, inshallah
memories of 2011 in the impala
i used to rock the jansport, now it’s louis v
’cause that italian leather right there is a movie, b
the perception of who we be is lesser than a ninety+degree v
’cause what we doin’ is greater than they could ever see
, yeah, my flow is roman b
you know the flow is rollin’, b
and right now
if i’m bein’ honest, i really don’t get the angle
your lyricism got me nappy, like a n+gga’s tangled
that ain’t no blaxploitation, it’s a black boy facin’ his fears
’cause n+gga was afraid to say “n+gga” for years
not in my life, but on the record, ’cause these n+ggas here
don’t like the fact that i’m a half+breed and they make it clear
you ain’t no n+gga, were never no n+gga
i could give a f+ck about what childhood trauma that does trigger
your brothers is n+ggas, your sisters is n+ggas
your aunties, uncles, and your cousins is n+ggas
your daddy is a n+gga
every single one of them called you a n+gga growin’ up
but you ain’t (nah)
f+ck that picture that you tryna paint
i’m here to tell you who you are and what to do (man, f+ck you)
some people say i can and some people say i can’t
why you so obsessed with me? just let me paint
man, i’d be lyin’ if i said this sh+t don’t get to me
’cause not a single one of my black folks said sh+t to me
whenever i see black prevail, that sh+t a victory
before i wrote this sh+t down, i had to pick to be
i know the way that the word “n+gga” and its history
the fact that any of us still say it a mystery
but y’all don’t want that word in my lungs like a histamine
i’ll never know how it feels to be a black man
but i know how it feels when your own people give you the backhand
that’s why i’m writin’ this sh+t here for the people that need it
and then attendin’ the thousands at the show and repeat it
whoever you are listenin’ that needed this right now, i love you
don’t ever let the world put negativity above you
just be yourself, unapologetically
this sh+t right here for my dogs, pedigree, let it be
this is me, peace, love, and positivity
back in the day, people said that it was g+y
that i rapped about my feelings, now it’s critically acclaimed
ain’t it funny how time switches the frame?
they used to call a pillow+biter
’cause he wore pink feathers and wore leather
it would incite a riot in the rap community
uh, now he’s considered top five with full immunity
love this rap sh+t, but the fact is, my factions
stay givin’ grammys to n+ggas that’s actin’
sh+t is trash, word to oscar
if rap was the woman of my dreams, then i’d toss her
i bring life into the game, these n+ggas contraception
peep the ascension, nothin’ but love is my intention
but they still get it backwards, they never pay attention
they all henchmen, i’m in the game, they all bench men
ayy, listen, ayy, listen, never stop, no, never give up your dream
and no matter the adversity, you’ll always reign supreme
what?
[outro]
well, kid, looks like we head back to babel in the morning
i know, man, six weeks already?
haha, yeah
you know, i will say you’re the coolest partner i’ve had in years
what am i, a fax machine?
you don’t count, buckethead
hey, now, play nice
at least atm has a body
what are you gon’ do with your time off when you get back, man?
mmm, same thing as always
train and prepare for the next one
don’t you want more than this? a real life, doing real things?
yeah, that’s why we do what we do
we work for a better future
some day i hope to touch grass and swim in oceans
but if i can’t, i know i’m laying the foundation for a generation that will
