[verse]
Treading thru shallow water since it ain't that deep,
Armageddon is calling can't escape that heat,
calm, I don't keep, man I'm Snowden with the leaks,
cuz they say you can always show 'em better than you speak,
to the heavens this could reach if you let it,
my verse is U-N-I, everybody going Meta,
but if you die in the Matrix, I think you know the rest,
like lambs to the slaughter we gon' party 'til our death,
I confess,
my patience is low,
and my level of hope just ain't the same as before,
especially since everybody woke while taking pills to cope,
and telling me to vote and get a booster,
I guess the chickens ain't coming to rooster,
and Mario ain't getting princess back from Koopa,
I've given free game like gold from Mansa Musa,
they turned up they nose I don't see no solution,
other than exclusion, a whole generation without their influence,
but yall would never do it,
that devil is embedded in your movement,
so even when we think we not we still losing,
man,
so many layers to cut thru, let's bond thou,
the shit we throw away can be used as compost,
we homegrown while most is Monsanto,
the tongue is a sword so I'm swinging my tanto,
build empires like Ottomans and Mongols,
across the entire, Providence that God owns,
the dichotomy in us vs them,
it's psychology that make you wanna trust them still,
look, if blacks were a woman and our man was system all our friends would ask, why do you fuck with him,
like girl, that shit toxic you need to stop it
before you end up in triage and need doctors,
watch it, cuz one thing I know about abuse is,
after enough time you start to get use to it,
thinking you deserve it,
talking bout well ain't nobody perfect,
don't be so certain

[hook]
They keep selling me that same old dream
We ain't falling for that shit
And they be telling me it ain't that deep
Right

They keep selling me that same old dream
and telling me it ain't that deep
If you woke and doing nothing go back to sleep, I'll get you up when the mission's complete (2x)

Peace
