We Got This

[Verse 1: Brother Ali]

Here we are together

Watching the world come down around us

I know my baby girl she counting on us

If she ask me about it I got be honest

Either they forgot about us or they got a target on us

And my niece is shooting amateur porno

Police shoot my nephews in the street like it's normal

But they've been doing that a century or like four though

It's horrible, still pains me to my core though

I know that when the dust settles and the smoke clears

And the Wretched of the Earth living with no fears

All we need is someone here who can remind us of how great it was

Before these people had their way with us

I know when I was on the street and struggling

You know you took me in to feed my hunger pain

And now you put me on my feet, look what I became

Even when we disagree that love remains

Listen these people they ain't trying to save our soul

So why we bickering about which way to go?

You know the words are incidental

The hearts are instrumental

As long as we're connected we can make it though

We got...

[Hook: Brother Ali]

Love

Should I ever call your name

I know that you can feel my pain

You'll be on your way to see me through

We got this

Love

Should you ever call my name

You know that I feel the same

I'll be on my way to see you through

We got this

[Verse 2: Brother Ali]

I'm not grinning cause I'm at a loss of opposition

Lot of them don't want me livin'

Thank God it's not your decision

I don't hate for a minute

A drop in the infinite

'Cause hate got a small percentage of envy in it

My enemies are not my teachers

I'm not seeking to adopt your features

I don't want or need you

My heart has been broken into, but I'm not broken in two

Don't need you to acknowledge the piece of me that lives in you

The truth was never yours to give us, it's always in us

You cut your roots off, you're finished

Heart's missing and you're looking at the raw authentic

Ya'll been listening, but ya'll don't get it, just mimic

I'm grinning cause I hear my echo in it

When you whisper to your infant

I'm glad I could be of some benefit

God bless, but the voice ain't the sound coming out of the hole

That's from deep down inside of our soul

Something ya'll need to know

[Verse 3: Sa-Roc]

Late at night I find it harder to rest easy bruh

It's like this heartache has no intention of easin' up

Cause every twenty four hours is another homicide

And they keep telling me that being emotional is unreasonable

Now I'm just trying to find a way that I can maintain

So I turned this love affair with words into my main thing

Putting all the hope I got left in the vocal expression

And maybe the message will make the world amazing

And finally my daddy can understand me a little better

See why I gave up my B.A. for another set of letters

Cause if he knew to what degree I sacrifice for this road

He might be prouder of the life I chose to go get us

But time's too precious to be wasted on the grudge between us

Ain't no bond greater than the share of flesh and blood between us

And we can make it through the toughest times together

If we let our guards down and just allow our love to lead us right
