Текст песни This Far - The YZE

An Afronite is a descendant of Africa
An African who be believes that they're a piece of Africa
Like meteorite to a meteoroid
An energy that courses through their blood and their soul
Straight from the soil

Post democracy
I'm living comfortably
Sipping on sacrifice with a shot of hypocrisy
In the same building but different floor than minority
Majority playing the game but don't own Monopoly
Forgetting the roots eating the fruits so foolishly
Wearing the suits that ask who are you to me
To your own kind
Paying no mind
The damage you causing
Cuz you couldn't make the time
Damn

I never really thought that we would get this far
Get this far
I never really thought that we would get this far
We still got a way to go
I never really thought that we would get this far
Get this far
I never really thought that we would get this far
And I'm grateful

Is it pride
Are we insecure
Tryna stunt on each other shopping Dior
I ain't tryna focus on all this trauma couture
There's too much blood that's been spilled on the floor
I sailed the western route guided by the stars
Growing and defining who I am from afar
Came back home upgraded to a new car
People looked at me different ego tripping so hard
But I'm trying to be more like the monument in Dakar
With my family beside me as we shoot for the stars
The older I get my circle close and form scars
My bonds got stronger harder to tear 'em apart
Some of my people are eating most of them starved
Some are living their dreams most of them aren't
Sacrifice on sacrifice we've made it this far
"I feel like Mike Jordan" Kendrick Lamar

I never really thought that we would get this far
Get this far
I never really thought that we would get this far
We still got a way to go
I never really thought that we would get this far
Get this far
I never really thought that we would get this far
And I'm grateful

Prosperity
Serenity
The heart want but the eye doth wonder
