[Intro]
I hide my tears from the crowd by smiling
(Jet 2 whussaap)
[Verse: Jet 2]
And this is where I get my energy
I ain't what them niggas pretend to be
Jet 2, this is me
Lost boy drownin' in the sea
Of hatred
And look around and you'll find
That you'll never ever get it
The American Dream
Now ask your politicians
Really what the fuck is it?
Money, cars, clothes, hoes
Big house, bunch of bitches
We've been brought up on bullshit
That's our lifelong mission
Time to wake up
Time to realize why the fuck we really livin'
Time to wake up
Time to realize why the fuck we really livin'
Time to seek the truth
Instead of eatin' all the bullshit we've been given
How we really free
If we ain't free when we ain't shit if we don't get it
These niggas don't get it
Now-a-days, bitches don't listen
Gotta wake up, gotta seek the truth
Ain't shit on television
What the fuck, they
Lied to us, they
Say that we gotta go to war
Ain't no love in they vision
Politicians all bitches
Tell the truth about 'em and they kill him
So if my voice gets heard
Come up missin', then you know they did it
In society, we got way too many bitches
Not enough women
In society, we got way too many niggas
Not enough real men
That'll take care of they children
We've been raised by rappers
And nobody's bothered
It's a trend to have no father
And they turn around and blame us
Like we made it this way
Really ain't our fault
But it's our fault if things stay the same
But it's either people ain't ready
Or willing to make the change
But I can't sit and watch it happen
Can't take the blame
Can't take the pain of smiling in niggas' face
Knowin' that I'm really hurtin' inside
Too damn weak to swallow my pride
Muthafuckas gotta get mad
If you wanna see the world smile
Like Malcolm X said
"Don't say freedom if you ain't ready to die
For it,"
Niggas talkin' 'bout hope, but the shit is all lies
And we all trapped inside the scheme
But we can change it if we all tried
But we glued to the Tube
Believing everything they tell you
Have you ever had the thought to wake up
And ask these muthafuckas why
Do they place these false idols
Fake ass niggas with bracelets and chains
That we chase in your face
As if we gon' find happiness by all of that shit
Go ahead
Work your whole life just to buy all of that shit
Hollywood, fucked up
D.C., fucked up
Middle East, fucked up
The whole world, fucked up
Just 'cause they entertain us
Then tell us everything we wanna hear
Which is bullshit, bullshit
Please get the fuck outta my ear
My soul's hungry, I need the truth
And it find it quite odd
Every time I follow the media
Find myself farther from God
Now why the fuck's that?
Why the fuck do y'all hide?
That's why they don't teach religion
Shit should be no surprise
Placing my right hand over my heart
Pledging my allegiance to Jesus
I don't worship a flag
What the flag do for me? Shit
Fuck Charles Darwin
Fuck evolution too, nigga
And fuck the person who tutored you
You'se a bitch
And I'ma heal the world through the truth
You'se a lie, and not everybody you could fool
Hope they really get it if they listen close
Money, cars, fame, clothes, hoes
Just ain't what I spit this for
I'm tired of hidin' pain when I spit this flow
I'm tired of followin' trends when I spit this flow
I'm tired of all these lies when truth is never told
Just 'cause the sand is golden
Doesn't mean it's ever gold
Gotta get over myself
What we all selfish for?
Ever thought tryna please God'll
Please yourself way more?
Ever thought tryna seek the truth'll
Probably free your soul
They just tell me, "if they ain't seekin' help
Then what you help them for?"
[Outro]
For some of y'all, it'll probably take a while
To really understand where I'm comin' from
With this, but I just want you to answer me this
Like, what's really the pursuit of happiness
'Cause I don't find happiness
In all the things we're chasin'
Just a little food for thought
