Slide On (feat. Shayhan)

Lately I'm feeling so different
The sun it's been glimmering
And it melted my wings
But
I guess I'm like Icarus
Movin' like I'm an immigrant
Persecution, my innocence
Feel like a butterfly,
Comin' out of the chrysalis
Christen the King
With a crown and a crowd of my citizens
Citizen Kane
I explain to the roses I'm whisperin'
Whisper my name
And I'm fadin' who dreamt of it
Dreamin' of change
Lookin' for change
The people dispensin' it
Spendin' my change
On the peeps who imprison us
This is the business
Witness it
Servin' the truth like
Sojourner at Wimbledon
When will the pain
Cease to exist
I'm sendin' a cease and desist
To the people sendin' a sentence
Sendin' my peeps to the pen
It's the reason I'm pennin' these sentences
It's the reason I'm pennin' these sentences
It's the reason I'm pennin' these sentences
They frame the plaintiff and lock away all the witnesses
When
Will it change
Admit
It's a shame
I get
The chance to get lit
The White House ablaze
Outer space like a comet is
Don't care what your comment is
All-Star team to see us need an astrologist
You would need an astronomer
I fathered the popular
I think about the world a lot
A modern philosopher
Got the opps on hot alert
Blew out their monitors
Come and check your process like I am the auditor

You know
The world's an open road
Choose from what it gives
With your fingertips

Hold on
S'all part of the ride
So Slide on
Slide on

Slide on young brother slide on
Slide on young brother slide on
Slide on young brother slide on
Slide on young brother
Black King

Black Kings and Black Queens we reign supreme
Truth stings I'm Bruce Lee with philosophy
Who is he? He fight to free our pursuit of dreams
Cuz we ain't had one since that day on a balcony
Balancing on a balance beam
Casually killin', casualties
Calvary never coming
Turn our martyrs to valkyries
Dead and we yellin' "how come?"
Dead and they put on handcuffs
Dead if we keep our hands down
And deaf if we put our hands up
Might be talking revolution
You see the evolution
How they consciously and constantly con
The constitution
They got bodies in the streets
Bodies under nooses
And I don't wanna be another body livin' useless
