lyrics

I'm taking it out of bounds
Getting a tech foul
Foul moves getting life, wow
Good deeds getting death now
Finding the source of the switch around
Switch around
Source of the switch around
It's around

(Rich)
Lemme know and it's in and out
Call me back in an hour
Vega skins with the sour
Sweet dreams a fleeting thing
If anything, I could use a shower
If anything, I could lose the cowards
Take the reins the world is ours
Give it back!
It wasn't mine, I didn't know
But now I do
Can't be unlearned
Can't be unheard
Can't be unlearned
Give it back!
Every key to every door
Kill the myth then mop the floor
Professional in the finest form
Have more fun with the blinders on
Don't mean your missing the shit show
Stalling the renaissance
Privilege by the zip code
Street knowledge or bank rolls
Won't save you when the tanks roll
Shark week on the schedule
Every week on the schedule
Sacrifices are scheduled
Won't tell you that in the manual
All these rules are malleable
They're bendable and they're breakable
They're 2 systems that are applied and answered to
To reset gotta pull it up right from the roots

I'm taking it out of bounds
Getting a tech foul
Foul moves getting life, wow
Good deeds getting death now
Finding the source of the switch around
Switch around
Source of the switch around
It's around
2 x

No time to mess about
It's all ending soon
No time to mess about
It's all ending soon

(A.M.)
Switch around
Go around
Like it's Talladega
Monopoly, Boardwalk
High, get the paper
Every acre, wanna Tesla
You can keep the mule
Neighbors staring at me
Got my chains on by the pool
Ran laps, working on the cardio
Back and forth but it ain't Atari yo
When I'm winning
They sabotage the whole game
Worked a hundred years
Racial shit still the same
Saw 5 cops coming, put ya hands up
Create the culture
Then they try m ban us
Man up, baby, take responsibility
Too many excuses
Ain't believing what you giving me
I just gotta live
Teach my baby right
Mama call my phone, 11:30 every night
I'm alright
Thankful so I gotta pray
But we begging for a change fighting every day
Morning...
But we begging for a change fighting every day
Begging for a change fighting every day
