AEL - Jewels (Produced by Oddisee) lyrics

If you had just a taste of the life that I live Your past would be but a waste because you'd try to be him You think you right, in the wrong, that's why you tryna fit in But why you scared of the j**els you could be mining within? Because the fear on the news, and the lies from they lips? I'll give you purely the truth until this finally ends When the stars all align, and the sky becomes red With the fire of every life that's been dying to live Lying on the street, begging pa**ingbyers to give I still love em like I loved em before time had began In a world where the poor, seen as flies in the wind I'll be on these beats til the day I'm finally rich With no money, it ain't nothin but a pile of debt Yet they show money to ya kids, as a sign of respect It's so funny how we live, and try to be them Cause while he fiend for the stacks, he got minimum wage And stacks ain't gonna change how this system is made We livin in graves, mothaf**in government slaves Ruled by corporate puppets, with nothin to say There's something to say, they trying to take your world today That's something to face, it's something that we all gotta change Embrace yourself, not the wealth that they show on your screen I know all the real people gon know what I mean We growing to kings, that's what you get for following dreams And showing your team, they've always been starwalking beings Why follow me? You already are all that you need There's nothing in between you and who you've wanted to be Just be true to yourself, and you're bound to achieve
