Take Me To The Sunlight

Lyrics

[Intro] Hey, hey, hey Rexx Hey [Verse 1] Sometimes I write and start to follow my feelings Could play the victim but these views will make me a realist I'm a Black man but still I understand I got privilege Bro, look at Rafah, where Israelis dropping bombs on a village I send my prayers to the mothers I send my heart to the children I send my love to the fathers And each generic civilian Imagine digging for your family members under a building And watching politicians try to justify why they did it The greater the power, the more dangerous the abuse Dangerous the abuse I see the flaws in the system, look at what it produced Look at what it produced Everybody eat the fruits but they don't trip off the roots The irony is they gonna squeeze all the juice outta you You better pick a side People in the streets in solidarity, they energized The tax money could have fixed the hood It's funding genocide They wrap my dogs for petty drug charges a million times While war criminals be killing kids and don't get any time The food poisoned, healthcare high, the schools in decline But somehow the Pledge of Allegiance still getting memorized The truth will get you killed, the stupid shit get legitimized And give you religion, at least it's light at the finish line, ha Life at the finish line I seen this story way too many times We all human, it don't matter how you identify Huh, 'cause if you had to struggle then we intertwined Bow my head and pray I got some questions I'ma send to God [Chorus] Where is heaven for the ones who look like me? Tryna believe in something that I can't see Take me to the sunlight (The sunlight) Take me to the sunlight (Eyes to the sky) [Verse 2] Putting wax in the joint, these oil paintings I enjoy the hating, ain't no holographic foil faded When you pull my car, we ignoring greatness Praising mediocre Bunch of Bruce Waynes out to make me the Joker Hate feeding vultures Waist deep in culture I can't see me wasting breath on breakbeats Just to make sure they meet a quota When the heat is on niggas' backbones pasta Hate seeing soldiers, get 'em off the roster Talking diagnosis, we is not a doctor But if Swiss cheese on that then I bet you niggas find the clockwork We got 51 seconds, dog That might not work, but bleed ink For this life to my type right Obsolete I don't speak in possiblys Already know this, 'fore I ever cop the trees Already floated, 'fore they ever got to me The real was noticed I'm already high, boating We on top the waves Know that we don't got the Patience for niggas crashing out Stay out the way Six feet like Fauci say Really in it Don't sit on your couch and tell me nothing Nigga, fuck what you about to say Your count is off or it's coming off Gutters only where the water's running off The sun is lost behind the clouds I can't see it clearly in this fog Hit the synagogue I got questions I'ma send to God Send to God [Chorus] Where is heaven for the ones who look like me? Tryna believe in something that I can't see Take me to the sunlight The sunlight Take me to the sunlight Sunlight Take me to the sunlight Take me to the sun Take me to the skies Where real love never dies Where the real love never dies Take me to the sky Take me to the skies Where the real love never dies [Verse 3] I try to keep my head to the sky But it's hard when it's falling down Falling down We mistake the rainfall For gunfire on the ground God bless my people Bless my people Protect the soil Stop all the evil All the evil Watch down on us Huh, I pray for patience I pray for empathy I pray for discernment (I pray for discernment) I pray you also give it to my enemies 'Cause we don't deserve this ('Cause we don't deserve this) Pray that you walk with me when I walk into my purpose Walk into my purpose When it's feeling uncertain, oh
