Текст песни Trips to Mars - Mike Lowery

I know a storm's approaching, attacking the hopeless
But they ain't never hope for nothing, I just made it happen
They trying to stop our traction, soon as we got some action

They say the world is about to end, and now we going backwards
Say there's a food shortage, and the world's warming
And the world economy is underperforming
Why when my niggas start the heating up, they cool us down

Soon as my niggas got a fix, they pulling tools out
Like, what's the agenda? Niggas trying to befriend us
Before the revolution started, they tried to go in us
I think it's funny, can't stop me from getting this money

They tried to scout all my niggas, but that won't do nothing to me
Like, have you seen the shit I saw? Have you heard the shit I heard
Niggas tried to tell me down, I held on to every word
That's a purpose, it serves. Still fighting this earth

To prove you niggas wrong, but ain't no benefit
Restarting businesses, all my niggas legitimate
Building up all this equity, breaking down the percentages
My dog hopeless, I just ask him what his interest is

And even though I see success, he's still disinterested
That shit'll break your fucking heart when your family don't see it
When they just take for granted all the shit you ever did
Well, fuck it, this for my kids. Fuck it, this for myself

What's generational wealth without generational health
What the fuck is building legacy if you can't let us see it
What the fuck is being a legend if you can't let it go be it
I'm changing my diet, internal, external

Baby, I wanna love you, but how do I learn you
How do I keep your love afloat without driving a boat
If you never gave me love, then how do I know
So many questions that were never had an answer to

Think mother nature fed up with our whole attitude
Took from this earth and never gave her no kind of gratitude
Corporations blowing smoke, and now it's killing the atmosphere
They call my nigga with some smoke, and now the police after him

But who going after them? And why they after us
Them dollar bills the only thing that's adding up
It's kind of sad as fuck, I never had love
My faith in opportunity really just messed up

My faith in opportunity really just messed up
And they got us choosing sides when really it's do or die
It's fight for your country, really it's just suicide
We're fighting for your freedom, get you in God's kingdom

Fuck it, let's go to Mars, that's a must like Elon
All we made of atoms are atom
How could you ever know your worth if you never know your value
I believe the book of Matthew ain't been to the chapel

I seen niggas out here starving, but feeding they pastor
He was telling y'all to fast, but cashing your checks faster
I heard it all before, but no happily ever after
As they see my nigga bald and try to attack us

Killing my niggas on camera, but the pain ain't ever catching
Expecting us to change, but the system is fracturing
All this forward ass thinking just moving us backwards
