progress - donhardrisk lyrics
hook
for my people that are feeling broken
in the morning, every day is the same
and it seems like there’s never progress
always problems, never got a chance to flourish/ focus
verse 1
the brotherhood clan
when was connected
we was like the brotherhood gang, i mean
we woke up every morning thinking of plans
on how we make the bread
and what we cook in the pans, i mean
five grown -ss men
hitting the d-mn gr-ss
thinking now how the h-ll we escape the d-mn trap
tripping in the studio doing records
tryna get to the m-sses
all of that really matters
and, sometimes the cops would bust the whole place
but we was meant to survive, we had like god’s grace
a kilo every week, pushing till we make it big
selling bankies in the streets
selling em to seventeens
the unknowns, we preferred to be the nameless
and when the pigs around, we just act brainless
they be asking how these n-ggas survive daily
we had a code to live by, we just had to believe it
hook
for my people that are feeling broken
in the morning, every day is the same
and it seems like there’s never progress
always problems, never got a chance to flourish/ focus
verse 2
and because of what we went through, we put it in vows
each n-gga on his own, started quitting to scout
you can’t afford to have a woman, special when you are down
so you gotta let her go and then we focused on songs
late nights, midnights, we hitting the bong
tryina contemplate, where the heck n-ggas went wrong
i’m hitting it raw
matter fact, p-ss me a stone
so i can reminisce, the only thing they say is be strong
i don’t know about my n-ggas but i had suicide thoughts
the devil himself he gave me a pill and a rope
i chose the pill but then i buried it under the soil
i told myself imma come back after the storm
and if i find it i’m taking it whole
ain no looking back, its gone be time to be gone
but all along, i was really just looking to choke
looking up in the sky man, i’m searching for hope
hook
for my people that are feeling broken
in the morning, every day is the same
and it seems like there’s never progress
always problems, never got a chance to flourish/ focus
verse 3
sometimes i really feel like i’m talking to adel
i do it back and forth underground when i move the cemeteries
we mixing pain and the sorrows, we doing chemistry
sometimes i wish, i could take the pain away
i’m looking left and then right i still no find a way
should i hop in, or should i stand still
i gat n-ggas like zombies that can also pop pills
we from africa, the underworld, the underdogs
did you ever watch percy jackson in the thunder bolts?
in movies we always see the bad guy die
that ain coincidence, problem is, everybody dies
and if i die today i’m sure you’ll see me in the future
time’s slow i’m ahead of my time, i move faster
green pastures, nomads they being raptured
dreams falling, but i can’t seem to wake up
hook
for my people that are feeling broken
in the morning, every day is the same
and it seems like there’s never progress
always problems, never got a chance to flourish/ focus
