  • I awoke from a dream
    Filled of a world full of greed and hate
    The world was my thoughts, and surroundings
    I realized I needed to rise, and become king
    My own destiny

    Take a look around, tears from they eyes
    Knees on the ground, money in the sky
    Take a look around, ain't shit nice?
    Praying for my life, hope I make it through the night

    Take a look around, the city on fire
    It's all taking place in the middle of my mind
    I stand in the middle, cause death right beside
    Murdering is simple, get your life simplified
    Where the bones lie, rebuild another life
    America's pie, put my hand in the pot
    I can't get caught in the streets I was taught
    Raised off anger, but it wasn't my fault
    Nigga, take a look around, it's needles on the ground
    Never gave three fucks, and I still don't now
    I'm fucking in the house, babysitter on the couch
    Thirteen like, "What this shit coming out?"
    Pass me a jimmy, I ain't ready for a child
    I hope nobody hears: "Bitch, why you so loud?"
    Turn on the tube, put my head on the cloud
    Breathe, inhale, the angles can't help

    Take a look around

    Take a look around, tears from they eyes
    Knees on the ground, money in the sky
    Take a look around, ain't shit nice?
    Praying for my life, hope I make it through the night

    Take a look around

    Take a look around
    All night, fighting em for my life
    Praying that everything gon' be right
    (Take a look around)
    Ain't it nice, truth over the lies?
    Young Knights, we kings in the skies
    (Take a look around)
    I ride around in my city
    Bitches pictures up in they titties
    Man, you fake, all of us know it
    I'm original and I show it
    Roll one time for everyone down and
    T-Two times for the nigga that bounce
    Then why you sitting round on some couch shit
    My money building, like houses
    Feeling like you wise
    Truth be told, it's all lies
    These the days of out lives
    Why you wasting all of your time?
    Voices from the skies
    Said that evil fall in yo rise
    They judge me low to the dirt
    Then they celebrate to of my highs
    Why you-Why you wanna be fake, I fucking hate you
    Why you made cause I ain't take you?
    Last day alive, I wouldn't even date you
    "I'll replace you with somebody better" that you only make up
    We just make up, wake up king and queen and rule the world a little later
    Later on in that day, tears all in her face
    I said I’m going away
    She begging me to stay
    Took a look in her eyes, then she put my hands on her waist
    Said, “Don’t leave, we’ve got a baby on the way”

    Take a look around
    All night, fighting em for my life
    Praying that everything gon be right
    (Take a look around)
    Ain't it nice, truth over the lies?
    Young Knights, we kings in the skies
    (Take a look around)
    I ride around in my city
    Bitches pictures up in they titties
    Man, you fake, all of us know it
    I'm original and I show it
    (Take a look around)
    I ride around in my city
    Bitches pictures up in they titties
    Man, you fake, all of us know it
    I'm original and I show it
    (Take a look around)

    I want you to know tonight
    That we, as a people, will get to the promised land
    And I’m not worried about anything, I’m not fearing any man
    My eyes have seen the glory, of the coming of the Lord Writer/s: CHRISTOPHER C TIN, JESS REED JACKSON, MICHAEL STEVENSON, MICHEAL STEVENSON, PRIYA MARIE PRINS, ROBERT HAIGH
