Songtexte Freefalling (Outro) - Rhakim Ali

I remember losing days of sleep crying
Tryna figure out my way of life
I wiped my tears and caught a glimpse of the greater sight
This debt to society comes with a major price
I get my cards and I play them right, persuasive type

Told momma I'd be the greatest alive
And if I die during, then I'll be the greatest who tried
Miscalculated the weight of my pride
Shit was holding me down
Take the crown and try to shape it to size

Them late night thoughts they keep me up
Who should I love? Who should I trust?
Am I doing enough?
Am I doing too much?
Should I let my feelings out?
Should I keep em inside, cover them up?

Niggas was dying in my hood over stupid shit it's ludicrous
Body counts becoming numerous we ain't new to this
Getting revenge you better off cliff jumping
These new niggas is tools but can't fix nothing

I used to ride the seven
Tryna find what kind of blessing was at my discretion
It's never fun when your time is questioned so my suggestion:
Just get your shit together and find a direction

Everybody think it's sweet but this shit ain't a delicatessen
The jealousy breaking them down I could see the expressions
I let them mention my name cause they need the attention
You think your future looking bad you should see your reflection

Guess you need some protection
You got a past that you don't even mention
This shit was all scaled and designed
Gotta make these niggas feel me like Braille to the blind

In the fast lane I see y'all trailing behind
Everybody want a plate but be scared of the grind

Gotta pay my respect when it's required
10 toes down when i'm walking through the fire
Time heals but some parts stay numb
See how the smart play dumb
While other niggas lose they mark for a crumb

It ain't hard to lose your heart where I'm from
In the park after dark kids'll play you like a harp or a drum
And I just laugh it off
Done traveled far despite the battle scars
I just dust it away and laugh it off

Executive piece authored by yours truly
They just tryna find which way is up like Paul Mooney
