Evolution

I wanna expand my brain, but I'm trapped in prison

Got me shackled up in chains for the maximum sentence

I'm tryna get out my ways to bring me back to census

And maybe teach myself some game and turn my rags to riches, mmm

Ain't no excuses we all started to buy them

Gotta learn to speak yo' truth and that's just part of the process

Sh!t, if I ain't the solution, guess I'm part of the problem

You pullin' flowers out the roots when I just wanted to blossom

And I'm exhausted, but I tried my best

We needed change 'cause we tired of stress, tryna flex

Bought you a chain, but couldn't buy respect, I'm not impressed

We can't evolve unless we follow steps, it's not a test

I'm tired of frontin' like we not oppressed

And I thought if I was rich, then all my problems'd be through

'Til I made a few million and now I got more problems than you

I know it feels good to win, but it hurts a lot when you lose

Don't ever say what you gon' do unless you followin' through

I'm talking execution (Execution), uh

And I don't know where I'm goin', but I'm learnin' as I'm growin'

That's the evolution (The evolution)

Hope I don't finish last, I'm still healin' from my past

I need some retribution (Retribution)

Did a lot of gettin' even, but I'm sick and tired of beefin'

What's the resolution? (Resolution)

I'm talkin' evolution (Evolution)

I gotta be honest, I never thought that I would pop this quickly

Feels good to look at my phone and see Rihanna hit me

Nah, it ain't on no sh!t like that, shorty a goddess to me

Just one of my friends that I can vent to when my conscious get me

Look, I ain't into what n!ggas is doin', I'm on some other sh!t

I never been the type to turn up and be on that clubbin' shit

I'm lookin' at n!ggas like, "Bruh, you grown, how you still love this sh!t?"

I'd rather be home and watch some movies with my son and sh!t

'Cause I ain't tryna impress nobody, that sh!t get old quick

Like starin' at an old flick

Trynna travel back in '06

Maybe hope for what I won't get

All that temporary happiness only last until you grow sick

And them lights start to go dim

And the walls start to close in

And the times starts to pass you by

Don't act surprised

Better be careful what you ask from God

I had some jobs, sh!t, I quit and took control, my n!gga

Got tired of buildin' companies up that I ain't own, my n!gga

It's time to grow my n!gga

Evolution (Na, na, na, na, na)

I don't know where I'm goin', but I'm learnin' as I'm growin'

That's the evolution (Na, na, na, na, na)

Hope I don't finish last, I'm still healin' from my past

I need some retribution (Na, na, na, na, na)

Did a lot of gettin' even, but I'm sick and tired of beefin'

What's the resolution? (Na, na, na, na, na)

I'm talkin' evolution (Evolution)

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na

Da-da-da-da, oh
