I’m Still Somehow

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Black Thought] Push come to shove once and for all Moments of pause, answer the call If it's the last dance, with that said It's the last chance to evolve Bein' a Black man's been a job Look at the loved ones I have lost Give me a CAT scan, I can't stand When the drug starts wearin' off What they would call goin' through withdrawal Nothin' to fear but fear is all Nothin' to board these spirits off Better prepare for a tear to fall I say a prayer for a miracle Pinnin' a parable to share with y'all It's about one crown who was run down Somehow still standin' tall (Tall) Look, I received hеat from a friend We will get knee-deep, gеt it in I will be three sheets to the wind Then I'll repeat dumb shit again Yo, they was vibin' on psilocybin Phil Collins or Phyllis Hyman Criticized, but it's still a problem To get a rise from the threat of violence That's a gateway like Ellis Island We should take time, smell the flowers At the bassline for the powers That be, I wonder what the hell is ours? May as well keep livin' lawless If I face charges regardless I'ma race now from the margin But somehow, still a livin' target (Target) Out of socket, out of darkness Out of pocket, out of office Who ever thought to collect a orphan? Didn't ever say shit about a coffin All the tools that we had was hammers That's exactly what we would brandish Whole high waitin' for the time We get a placebo instead of answers, I mean [Interlude: Black Thought] Yeah (I mean) Let's talk about (I mean) Let's talk about (I mean, I—) [Verse 2: Black Thought] They say Black joy is rebellion A happy Black boy's like a alien I see what ain't fail yet is failin' So we adapt, that of a chameleon True advancement, who the champion That somehow smiles for the cameras? With the strength found through the anthem And somehow beautifully handsome We too powerful for you to cancel This is not a groove you could dance to This is nasty (Hahahahaha)
