Generations

Where I'm at

Looking back

I used to rap about the future

And it's weird how It's here now

And how we'll soon disappear

All our hopes, fears

The smoke and mirrors and sincere doubts

In a few years, will just be dust and cleared out

But for a minute we assist the transition

Give a hand then loosen our grip

Expand the vision past Instagram pics

To witness anguish and give a damn

And resist the ambition and just trick and scam systems

Is he spitting man?

(Is he spitting?)

Uplifting fam sickest transcripts written

Since the Sanskrit languages

Simply cuz the fans of the kid demand different

I'm blessed

Yes, yes

Long as we're granted the chance

To keep advancing don't stress

We're blessed

Yes, yes

Long as you're standing on this planet

You're already a champion

Blessed

Yes, yes

Long as you're granted the chance

To keep advancing don't stress

We're blessed, Yes Yes

Long as you're standing on this planet

You're already a champion

Blessed

Break it down

Best to ever wander on a stage

Namaste

My Rwandan-made style is nonpareil

Brought up raised between Ronald Reagan and Obama's day

The genre's hey' Raekwon to Wayne on them drama tapes

I just synthesized my idols then I dropped like bombs away

Lobbed grenades on the page don't want my songs on a playlist

Unless it's with the best - Don McLean, Bonnie Raitt

Chaka Khan from the 80s, maybe Lady Marmalade

Andalay

Spit in Spanish, flex in French, and en Anglais

Play the fests in Montreux in Montreal and Monterrey

Then I'm on a plane gone away to where my mama stay

On a German airliner reclining like danke schon

Headliner all the hotels trying to accommodate

Compensated 'cause my contributions far from commonplace

I belong with the modern greats

How I conversate bare talent

Showing out like thongs and lingerie

That's blessed

Yes, yes

Long as you're granted the chance

To keep advancing don't stress

We're blessed

Yes, yes

Long as you're standing on the planet

You're already a champion

Blessed

Prayer and meditation

To try to stay aware of the snares they set in place

And bring care and dedication to repair our generation's

Inherited devastation

Despair and medication

Rick Flair and Gary Payton and our parents' separations

We were brought up buried in a basement

It's layered

Just like America the great and the terror

Sharing space in the same precarious nation

I was young and dreaming of love

Like where's the demonstration?

Like who got next?

(Who got next?)

We got next

Yes, yes

Long as we're granted the chance

To keep advancing don't stress

We're blessed

Yes, yes

Long as you're standing on this planet

You're already a champion blessed

Yes, yes

Long as you're granted the chance

To keep advancing don't stress

You're blessed

Yes, yes

Long as you're standing on this planet

You're already a champion

Blessed

Yes, yes

Long as you're granted the chance

To keep advancing don't stress

You're blessed

Yes, yes

Long as you're standing on this planet

You're already a champion

Don't stress

Yes, yes

Long as you're standing on this planet

You're already a champion

Blessed
