Thought I was gonna be the good guy

Studied hard

Went to college

Got a good job

But I saw too much

I found out from the sidelines that I was too different to ever hide

So I guess the gig is up

But you won't put my pen down

You can't take my pen now

No, I'm running so fast cause the change never lasts here

Rather be an outlaw living like a nomad

Then to get a dream deferred like 1951

Nope

Time time time

is running out

I can't spend my life trying to figure simple shit out

Man we built this country why you still trying to shoot us

Take the struggle call it culture

You feel hype yeah you feel like a rebel

Don't you feel wanted?

So you feel wanted

I'm still chasing the American Dream

Is it hiding or did it take a plane overseas

Attention passengers when we descend into the new normal

What the fuck is the old normal it ain't never been normal, no

Time time time

Is running out

And you still don't want to address the situation

So I gotta bounce

An exodus to save my self from drowning

Melanin Fresh no I am not pressed but this is a mess

I'm a take my struggle make it culture get you hype bet

You feel like a rebel

Don't you feel wanted

So you feel wanted

Underground since Harriet
