Sovereignty

[Verse]

Ugh

Yeah

Ugh

Look

I done been through trials that most can't survive

I used the knife they put in my back to cut all my family ties

Its hard when you start arm wrestling with the hands of time

But the time of death is the only thing you can't decide

I gained some knowledge from reading a book

I thins game these rap niggas are as weak as they look

I tell niggas I can't feed you but I can teach you to cook

Just know the cost of greed, its harder to eat when you're full

Yeah, Imma teach my daughter, that wisdom is hers

The lessons I learned from life came with a gift and a curse

The gift is you not feeling the pain that I felt at your age

The curse is you don't get those lessons that can help with the pain

Yeah

But sobriety wasn't sovereignty

In these verses I'm speaking logically

I had to learn to forgive them with no apology

My humble beginnings I experienced, it taught me modesty

On the grind I never take a day off

The struggle to get your people out the hood and stay strong

I play the cards I was dealt, I only look to take charge

But when they see you as a threat that's when they pull the race card

Every crypto investment I made couldn't outweigh the investment that I made in myself

Or that I made in my health

You put a wolf in sheep's clothing it's a price just to wear it

Got to be wise enough to know good advice when you hear it
