Lyrics to Follow The Wisdom
That's the part of me that wants to change
That's the part of me that tries

I'm trying to
Come on, y'all can't compare me to what these niggas do
Selling drugs, that thing's a [?] just to get us fooled
Now the house so big, got a parachute to my living room
The money good, but it can't be a problem
But quick to put it on your head
Bitch, I'm hands free with drama
We grew up with daddy issues 'cause we can't see our fathers
And they waited too late to tell us about plan B's and condoms
No respect for a nigga that do dirt with his mans
And when he gets caught
He fold and he tell what he learnt on the stand
Starting a fire so long I ended up burning my hand
The would struggle, wrote a verse, now my hand is like a fan
Now I'm on XXL covers
Niggas and bitches from colleges to the jails love ares
Just a chick from the hood that's doing Adele numbers
Hard to get you respect unless your skin is a pale colour
Life wasn't prepared for us

Before I start my day, I gotta talk to God
My brother had the streets at arms reach but still got the job
Pain on the streets, it ain't worth seeing your daughters crying
I was that daughter so, you'll never hear me glorifying it
I'm on a high horse so I made myself a chariot
My family enslaved by the [?]
What's the slaver you [?]
I never knew we was trapped, pain made me aware of it
'Cause wisdom don't come from age, it comes pain and experience
All that shit you was handed, I had to grind to have
Momma from the streets so she had to hide the pass
Momma had to tell me "Never follow in my foot steps"
But I still follow with a magnifying glass
Her and my step daddy [?] ain't get married in the church
He ain't my blood pops but he's been with me since birth
He was sober and he'd teach me and prepare me for the worse
'Cause wisdom the type of wealth you can't carry in a purse

At first, a [?] was made
The purchases got exchanged
You're able to play both hands?
Then through yourself a black parade
Well, the food is free and usually, you get to watch the day
[?] watch your roof
So you'd just be given your [?] today
It's sorta like a modern day Macbeth
Where all the product make the steps
And the crown is handed down
It's usually why they wave the cheque
It's like one size fit all, for the [?]
You call them hyenas parallels for a cell, they that close
But we was close enough to see it all
[?] ran a free for all
The engine on the two-forty-five was like a breeding call
We all just want to part of the stories that's recited
But never [?] a lot where there's a road [?] indictment
I surf them off the curb after I surf them off the wind[?]
It's three-two, one off the stool for your influencials
There's no way, nobody did it this vividly
And all I did was follow where the wisdom be
For real
