Текст песни Ask For - Taelor Gray , Armond Wakeup

No lie, I don't watch the news
It's somewhere between Infuriating & infused
I am not confused
I can see the ruse
I think everybody's in on it
You can't dismiss independent thought with some tinfoil
They playing on our trauma
Playing on these black boys buried by their mamas
I gotta be honest
Folks call em heroes
I don't think they're heroes
The response to lives lost shouldn't be a mural
They been stepping on their Euro
I been prepping
Cleaning weapons
Treating every moment precious
I been avoiding attention
I been, buying sneakers just to wear em on my balcony
My baby having my baby, make sure they have all that they need
These organizations saying they are on our side
But take the father out the home no. I can't let it slide
Our color is the same, but our goals are very different
So when you get the stage I know you won't include me in it
They justifying genocide
They mock us
I promise this is deeper than the coppers
It's somewhere around the copper, the plastic, the power of the dollar
But if you wanna see change, go for the pockets
This is, apocalyptic
This is, unprecedented
More than a new president
Its present, what a mess to get in
What a perfect time to delve into the scriptures
That tells us this is evidence He's with us

& I thank God He don't give me everything I ask for
Said I thank God He don't give me everything I ask for

I don't really feel like talking social issues
It take a lot trust and investment just to get vocal witchu
And not for local issues
That's what votes can get you, but I'm tryna stay Hopeful with you
Tryna build community
Tryna prevent mutiny
I'll only testify with immunity
That's free jewelry to cover expenses
In the beginning God created you and me and used nudity to cover our senses
Till we come to our senses
And then we wreck the planet on something expensive
Then we get love and forgiveness
So who am I to make a judgement
I lose confidence as soon as I'm gon' get accustomed
These white Christians is still sleeping
Fighting critical race theory but they ain't doing no critical thinking
Excuses turn to controversy
I pump fake at the checkouts before I cop the Doncic jersey
I need a lot of mercy-I did a lot of splurging
I need a lot of faith
I'm 5 seconds from going dark on my friends
5 steps like Dru Hill how it starts and it ends
I really need to end this verse, redemption first
But everything inside says live in this tension
And take a closer look at what you done did for attention
That's a hard pill to swallow even when it's prescription
Check on your homies, check on your mamas
Lift up the fathers, all the pastors who keep it solid
Cuz Lord knows we need the broken healed
2020 like I'm Barry in the open field
Or Harriet in open fields-them chariots is close for real
