Letra
Some said he did it all for a fat gold rope

Or was it at the mall over a fashionable coat

Speculations abound

Was he really broke

Word around town he getting pounds of that okay doke

And you know how that go

I just heard that though I don't really know

Interrogation room Utz chips cherry coke

Mentholated smoke

That's that New n***o

W E B Du Bois in the peacoat

H B C U keynote speaker

Rewrote history only to find the future bleaker

Black Orpheus

My girl eloped with the reaper

Throw the next b***h down the well

If she floats that's a keeper

In the lab white smoke bubble out the beaker

Hunchback jump when I yell "Eureka"

Love don't cost a thing

But I'm looking for something cheaper

No more space to hide

Tell me who gon' change my mind

I felt all wrong inside

How to make it right

Someone told a lie

No more space to hide

Tell me who gon' change my mind

No more space to hide

To the corner sat a wide eyed younging in the rear pew

Rev kept his timepiece flooded

Many mansions' what I'm heir to

Kingdom kid with an apocalyptic worldview

Fire from the sky into oceans swirling like whirlpools

Mom talking about

"Don't have me look for you behind the gates

Can we all just die now I shouldn't have to wait"

Maybe when I'm older I'll have half her faith

Give or take

Tell them rich niggas pass the plate

Trap house of the lord where some would traffic weight

Hid under covers of the cloth

Statutory rape

Touch that old rugged cross

Sung his highest praise

True we all fall short most disguise their pain

So you can talk that talk make it seem less staged

Snatched down off that horse how you see no shame

What he call divine law made me look both ways

Twisted messages relayed

I didn't come back the same

No more space to hide

Tell me who gon' change my mind

I felt all wrong inside

How to make it right

Someone told a lie

No more space to hide

Tell me who gon' change my mind

No more space to hide

No more space to hide

No more space to hide

No more space to hide

No more space to hide

No more space to hide

Tell me who gon' change my mind
