Troubled Youth

They tell me not to say it all, ***** I ain't said enough

Now lately I been tripping, ***** I ain't prayed enough

The only thing that's stable is this liquor in my cup

Went from caring about what they say to not giving a ****

And I promise it ain't luck that has got me this far

All I do is work hard and have faith in my God

Bring you something unique, try and keep it discreet

Please don't get up out your seat, you might miss the good part

Middle finger to the system trying to block my intuition

Please don't let your pride override your ambition

We don't need no labels, we can do this independent

But these ****** acting timid, homie this my intervention

Got you signing contracts that's gon put you out of business

Believe that you could fly, keep your wings don't clip'em

We tryna bring hope back to the youth

My people gon' be starving if I leave it up to you

If I leave it up to you

And we the troubled youth, and we the troubled youth

We the troubled youth

Don't let them tell us what to do

And we the troubled youth, we the troubled youth, we the troubled youth, but we the troubled youth

And we don't give a ****

Cause ***** we gon' ride

Why they always tryna kill my vibe, why they always tryna kill my vibe

You can meet me outside

I'm sick and tired of seeing ****** die, we all sick of seeing ****** die

Better open up your eyes, I'm drinking out the bottle where I'm writing all these lines

To my granny, seen her drunk, man ain't never told a lie

Nah he ain't never told a lie

I've been derived from the thoughts in your mind

Envision every soul getting lost in the time

Penetrating deep enough, she feel it in her spine

****** hit, hussle, and pick up all my line

People listen when I scribe

I'm a self-proclaimed king to this game and you ain't noticed but ain't no drug up on the corner

Thats my potent and it's potent

**** if you hatin', no debatin', I'm the greatest

People talking **** about me and the don't even think that I notice

But I do

And we the troubled youth, and we the troubled youth, we the troubled youth

Don't let them tell us what to do, no

And we the troubled youth, we the troubled youth, we the troubled youth, but we the troubled youth

And we don't give a ****

Cause ***** we gon' ride

All my young ****** meet me outside

All my young ****** meet me outside

I ain't seen you rappers do the **** that you been talking

You digging your own grave, you gon' end up in a coffin

Such a premature burial site

Tryna get up on my level, I'm in aerial heights

Tell'em goodnight. I ain't your ordinary rap *****

I coast just between aware ****** and trap ******

That's facts *****, we made it cool to be black *****

Been in my spaceship but they wanna put us back in the slave ship

***** ain't that bout a *****?

My presence is a gift and they working overtime to make sure we ain't rich

Don't worry about me, dawg, worry bout your *****

I ain't even packing linens but they tell me I'm a trip

Man they tell me I'm a trip

I'm faded, damn I can't wait to be famous

All of my people gone be straight, all my ****** gon' be eating

And that's word to the cater man, shout out to the cater man

And we the troubled youth, and we the troubled youth, we the troubled youth

Don't let them tell us what to do

And we the troubled youth, we the troubled youth, we the troubled youth, but we the troubled youth

And we don't give a ****

Cause ***** we gon' ride
