Lyrics

[Verse 1] Blinded by illusion, delusional brands of folklore Confuse the bliss a pandemic caution a known but hope for Lost my grandpop without drum circles to pass legacies His son said plate sunrise so what's ahead of me? Eyes planted in tomorrow's soil Won't let this precious cargo spoil 'cause now I'm a generation away from elder see The heat is sweltering The pressure stings as the lash of violin strings A jack of all trades posted by all his beanstalks That overgrown path is where his dreams walk, machete in hand Hope his boys are ready to land on feet with plan to succeed I packed each of their backpacks with a small piece of me to reference in times of need I just wanna harvest the fruits of my seeds I've never been so horrified for a life other than me 'cause I can only wait and see what their lives are gonna be [Chorus] I can only fight and hope you look I can only lead a horse to water, can't make him drink But I pray my seed will still believe I know it gets hard but don't give up Just look at me [Verse 2] Did we equip them with the tools to survive the flood? Do they know how to pray and surround themselves with the tides of love? Do they know that they're never to low to rise above? Do they know no matter the world, their path is different from us But the principles never change Nothing's simple Work is foundational to your lane Do they know the time it takes to develop what's in the frame? And it's okay to be strange, it's relevant to your name Your legacy's not a game I've been broken by [y'all?] more times but it's part of the road The unappreciated man who left a mark on your souls And I [felt the same?] about the Guardians to my Galaxy Now I see they were just tryna get the best out of me I hope that this will unfold downstream before the tide capsizes your canoe and the skies over your head are always blue I just know one thing that you could never say is that you're never new Everyday, just be a better you [Chorus] I can only fight and hope you look (just keep your head up to the sky) I can only lead a horse to water, can't make him drink (don't stop, keep going on, my child) But I pray my seed will still believe I know it gets hard but don't give up Just look at me (just keep your head up to the sky) I can only fight and hope you look I can only lead a horse to water, can't make him drink But I pray my seed will still believe I know it gets hard but don't give up Just look at me Just keep your head up to the sky Don't stop, keep going on, my child Just keep your head up to the sky Don't stop, keep going on, my child
