SISTER / NATION lyrics

[Part 1: SISTER]

[Intro: Merlyn Wood]

Drink with the apple pie with it, yeah, yeah, yeah

I don't got no chains in my denim, yeah, yeah, yeah

I don't listen what the blogs tell me, yeah, yeah, yeah

I know niggas got their own agenda, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1: Joba]

I've got [censored] but she would never know

I like to hide them, so much I lose myself

That's why I'm pure to some, a psychopath to others

And grew up in counseling, flipping off my counselors

They gave me mood stabilizers but when I came off 'em, I was violent

Took the drugs that I wanted which didn't help with the voices

They just grew louder and louder

They called the people who'd just chatter and chatter

I juggle all my personalities

[Interlude: Robert Ontenient]

Estoy tan harto y cansado, no puedo seguir haciendo esto

Ojalá pudiera rendirme pero tengo seguir siendo fuerte para mi familia y mis amigos

[Verse 2: Kevin Abstract]

I find myself gettin' better by the fuckin' minute

Number one, my momma always had to save the minutes

Got some D's, dropped out, wanted to be Russell Simmons

Gotta keep workin', my head or in a vision

Where the kitchen at? Keep the lyrics written

Raid my cell and dope, askin' for forgiveness

I just ran into somebody sellin' lemonade

Kiss your kids tonight before them bitches run away

[Chorus: Kevin Abstract]

Get your man, get your man all up off me

Think again, want a hundred bands around me

In December, I don't care what they call me

[Verse 3: Kevin Abstract]

This for all my broke niggas, this for all them jokes, nigga

That you niggas made when I was still livin' at home, nigga

Did it on my own, nigga, grew up and I bossed out

Grew up and I bossed out, grew up and I bossed out

[Verse 4: Matt Champion]

I see you peekin’ through bushes

And tryna get secret ingredients from us

I know that you do it 'cause you see us boomin'

Like C4 when you hit that detonator

Lucky-lucky on the elevator

Eat my dust, baby, I’ll see ya later

I could always call your bluff

You already said enough

Take a risk, bitch

Still sittin' on your ass, waitin' for a handout

Giving nothin', put your hands down

"Ooh, yeah, this for the culture!"

"Ooh, yeah, this important!"

Fuck off with that slang shit

Fuck off with that networking

Keep ya mouth where the money at

[Bridge: Dom McLennon]

Yellow lights on my dashboard

Red flags in the rearview

I know I'm the one that made you upset

But all I wanna do is see you

You know that lately I don't think straight

But I don't really know what I'm doing now

'Cause everybody got me fucked up

I'm struggling while on the move now

Yellow lights on my dashboard

Red flags in the rearview

I know I'm the one that made you upset

But all I wanna do is heal you

You know that lately I don't think straight

But lately I don't know what to do now

'Cause everybody got me fucked up

I'm struggling while on the move now

[Chorus: Kevin Abstract]

Get your man, get your man all up off me

Think again, want a hundred bands around me

In December, I don't care what they call me

Get your man, get your man all up off me

Think again, want a hundred bands around me

In December, I don't care what they call me

Get your man, get your man all up off me

Think again, want a hundred bands around me

In December, I don't care what they call me

Get your man, get your man all up off me

Think again, want a hundred bands around me

In December, I don't care what they call me

[Part 2: NATION]

[Intro: Kevin Abstract]

Barely got control of it, must've got a hold of it

Threw me to the ground and left a scar right on my nigga lips

I look in my closet when I think about the past life

Never good in my wallet, tryna see if I got my cash right

Fuck a flight, they ain't never wanna treat my bag right

Fuck a job, they ain't never treat my mom and dad right

[Verse 1: Ameer Vann]

I hate the quiet suburbs, I hate those picket fences

I hate the separation, first thing they called me "nigga"

I fight, I got suspended, my teachers saw me hit him

So they ain't listen to me, and from that moment on

I would learn that I was different, I would grow to see the difference

Second guessing my decisions, black bodies come up missing

[Chorus: Kevin Abstract]

I feel like all my days are coming to a blend

I feel like all my days are coming to a blend

[Verse 2: Dom McLennon]

I would walk through the halls at my own pace

Every lunch, I would flow, having no place

All the books in my bag 'til my bones ache

Wonder how the world would be if I had no face

If I had no heart, if I had no skin

And I was just thoughts, reminiscing

The things always brushed off

Had my father try to tell me I was just soft

And when I look at the things that I've been through

And the things I survived and at what cost?

All the love in my life that I just lost

All this shit persevere to the pole vault

In the eyes of the law, I'm a problem

In the eyes of the blogs, I'm a paycheck

In the eyes of the world, I'm an icon

In the eyes that I own, I ain't start yet

In the eyes of the law, I'm a problem

In the eyes of the blogs, I'm a paycheck

In the eyes of the world, I'm an icon

In the eyes that I own, I ain't start yet, I ain't start yet

[Bridge: Merlyn Wood]

Power, African power!

Power, African power!

Power, African power!

[Chorus: Kevin Abstract]

I feel like all my days are coming to a blend

I feel like all my days are coming to a blend

Uh, I feel like all my days are coming to a blend

I feel like all my days are coming to a blend
