[Intro]
I woke up to a foggy morning, all alone in my apartment
On a Saturday, in August, back when, my heart was hardened
So exhausted, of toxic monsters always crawling in my conscience
Turned on the faucet, looked in the mirror, then heard a calling, it said "you got this"
[Verse 1]
One time for the 80s babies
One time for the 90s kids
One time for the way you raised me
One time for the way we lived, yeah
One time for the lives that taken
One time for the ones that give
I, look now and the times are changing
Why, what kinda life is this?
I miss the ways of the good old days when we used to get by through the power of faith
Fo' an Instagram page, measured my name, all began spending, dollars for change
To, compensate, a lack of honor and praise
Concentrate, greed, the power of fame
Dominates, slaves and cowards of pain
Contemplate, hours we got on this place
Not many so I hang on to memories, singing melodies making songs in my mom's car
Elementary school, where I used to snooze through, and my teachers said I'm not smart
Space Jam in the clouds, think about all the things that I'd do watching Toonsquad and Monstars
Know I'm not close, but I'm not far, but I suppose
I'm tryna' cope cuz the world caught me off guard
[Hook - Dana Basha & Nina]
Okay Okay, now what's going on?
I say "things changed"
They just say I have grown
I want
Somewhere to go to help me find my own peace
Got so many places to go, but nowhere to be, me
Okay, Okay, now what's going on?
We see the same things, act like nothing is wrong
I've got, no one to blame but the man looking at me
If I want my world to change, I'd better start with me
[Verse 2]
Let's start with me, first off I'm free
I've got all I want I've got all I need
I don't starve to eat, I got a heart that beats, a
And when I want to pause I got a place to sleep
Now change the scene, where they bomb for peace
Where refugees, hop in SUVs
All packed on boats in the 7 seas
While we smoking dope n popping' Ecstasy
See, can't you see? That it's sad to see
Others round the globe live in agony
Facing tragedies, n met with apathy
Being k**ed by drones, half man, machine
Lets plant a seed, organically
And Restore some hope, in humanity
Turn a fantasy, to reality
I know I'm only me, but here's a strategy
Cut the calories, and living' lavishly
Pride and vanity, like we majesty
Nationalities, they never mattered B
We all made the same, its anatomy
We all family, lets live happily
Unlock your soul and then pa** the key
I know its blasphemy, but as for me
I'm gon' do what I can to paint a masterpiece
