I got my family

And I got my squad

And as long as they got me

Then I'll be just fine

So I give God the glory

Cause I have my child

And America don't want me

That's when I realized

That we all need, yeah

A reason to smile

I said we all need, yeah

A reason to smile

Said about to be O.D.'d, yeah

But we gon' survive

That's why we all need

A reason to smile

And a possible bigot slash misogynist is 'bout to run the whole damn thing

And the ballot my sister filled in

In another city didn't do a God-damn thing

Shit I'm a go crazy yeah

I'm a go crazy yeah

I'm a go crazy yeah

But I gotta do my God-damn thing

The Alt Rights hate us

Some black baby mommas hate us

We only learn half of the drama, other side crazy

On behalf of Charlamagne I'm sure he ain't trading sides

Maybe I should meet Tomi Lahren, I'll Lauryn Hill her

Train her; she miseducated anyway

Prolly hate the color of my face

I'm just a young black rapping ass African

Ain't never wanted to have it and now he has it his own way

I'm smoking purple, the law enforcement be murking brothers

The moon lit and I'm Cottonmouth like Mahershala

Its like you got a curse if your currency low

The world is a dirty fucking experiment

They don't care if its hurting us

Black lives matter, 'cause black lives target practice

Can't even imagine what would happen with no phone cameras

Black lives matter, black love the dopest ever

Just wanna remind you, I think it's time that we show it better

I got my family

And I got my squad

And as long as they got me

Then I'll be just fine

So I give God the glory

Cause I have my child

And America don't want me

That's what I realized

That we all need, yeah

A reason to smile

I said we all need, yeah

A reason to smile

Said about to be O.D.'d, yeah

But we gon' survive

That's why we all need

A reason to smile

Giving knowledge and uplifting our brothers and daughters

Is how this whole thing change

But the power that's in the pussy or the dollar

Is enough to make us all insane

Shit I'm a go crazy yeah

I'm a go crazy yeah

I'm a go crazy yeah

But I gotta do my God-damn thing

And I've been living like I got one

A couple hundred on me, still in the gold shotgun

You do the most, stop son

Our people not exempt

They in the land of the free

You in the land of free to an extent

Fuck that, I'm a ruffle some feathers

Mess with the temperature, shuffle the weather

Fuck whoever

Beef is whatever

Kill me, you die and I live forever

When you live without fear

It don't get much better

Naw, hmm

Look at how far that we've come

Look at the world we inspired

And look at the stars that we brung

They think that when that literal big wig starts that we done

They think because Hillary lost the cards will be Trumped

You out you mind nigga

I got my family

And I got my squad

And as long as they got me

Then I'll be just fine

So I give God the glory

Cause I have my child

And America don't want me

That's what I realized

That we all need, yeah

A reason to smile

I said we all need, yeah

A reason to smile

Said about to be O.D.'d, yeah

But we gon' survive

That's why we all need

A reason to smile
