Lyrics Alone - Black Thought , El Michels Affair

Challenges, we rose to a lot of those
And passed with flying colors like the honor roll
With one school-aged child, another not as old
You can grind in overtime gettin' to that pot of gold
Gotta make a solid home whether hot or cold
You never let somebody use an improper tone
You move, bro, you don't want it if it's not controlled
Even if you might not have known, you are not alone

You are not alone (you are not alone)
No (no, no, no)
No (no, no, n-no, no)
No (no, no, n-no, no)
You are not alone (you are not alone)
No, no, no (ooh-ooh)

Another day, another dollar thrown
The money all the same color, though, it's monochrome
You already know the vibes like a xylophone
You an army of one, it's tatted on your collarbone (you are not alone)
And you heard it all, seen it all, done it all
The bullshit is like the layers of the onion, all
You wouldn't take the bra exam, so you studied law
Your favorite thing to say is, "I ain't studied none of ya'll"

Drivin' Uber to eats just to make it through the week
Too discreet to be out here, belongin' to the streets
Careful of the company you keep
I mean it's still cool to speak but that other small talk is sheep
When the world feels like, it's just without a stone
Remember, it's a different time in another zone
And if you can't see the poetry, you are a poem
Bless the child that's got a O, you're not alone

You are not alone (you are not alone)
No (no, no, no)
No (no, no, n-no, no)
No (no, no, n-no, no)
You are not alone (you are not alone)
No, no, no (ooh-ooh-ooh)
