(verse)
they hate when you aspiring
never lacking confidence
do you feel t-tanous will
inside of all yo human skin?
maybe
we young gods that sent
cause lately in my dreaming
all these demons tryna haunt the kid
so you see why escaping
the next thing i got in my plans
it’s crazy
taking brains
from out my reigning
imma need these fans
playing with words
sharp as swords
stuck in the matrix
fillin sp-ces
plugging chords
like samples playing
i’m congregating
m-sses stating
that dominating
times we placed in
the way to break it
this segregation
hip-hop spittin
rappers fakin
so imma take it
monster’s foot when
i’m kicking open doors
to find my footing
get by with goodness
new highs that i been cookin
climbing out the box
everybody claim that they a rapper
man, i kid you not
but hop up in the booth
can’t spit they truth
nowhere near hot as jon
you skipping old school instrumentals, so i know you ain’t with god
this here is timeless
i know you vibing
i know i’m shining
please don’t remind me
cause i got
way too much stuff on my plate
and i got
way too much love in my hate
and i spot
way too much ties that turned fake
and i’m not
with all that dumb sh-t they say
that’s why
that’s why
that’s why
that’s why
(hook)
cause i’m a young n-gg- with an old soul
a young n-gg- with an old soul(x2)
(verse 2)
masterfully crafting these
rhythms and patterning
getting n-gg-s flipping
from tracks the way acrobatics be
vision clearer than binoculars
hoping to make impressions
on the ones coming right after us
i stand for generations
every sunday to sunday
pacifist activist
droppin bombs
while y’all preach gunplay
when really that isn’t tight
k!lling each other ain’t right
if you ain’t willing to make a new life
my n-gg- then you done lost sight
of any moral understanding
you really ain’t about that sh-t
you do drugs cause they rappin
bout it
i gave up, so i could face the madness
i raise up, into a place and p-ss it
escape the grip fellow vibration addicts
homeostasis back in
on the go, making magic
indigos say i’m that kid
if you relate then back it
don’t just go praise my actions
take all these words and add it
inside of yo mental mappings
till negativity’ s lacking
if you
(hook)
a young n-gg- with an old soul(x4)
(verse 3)
and honestly
i hate a lot of things
i hate these little n-gg-s
that want me on they team
i hate the fact that if you rap
they think you can’t succeed without it
been up every single night
reaching to my dreams no doubt
it’s harder than ever
n-gg-s out here dropping bars so they can keep the sh-t level
you need to lower down ya b-ss
so we can see what ya treble
been talking bout
cause every f-cking song sound the same
and everybody knows that you’z a lame
i’m tryna build and get up out the south
you just tryna do it for the fame
you just tryna ride a n-gg- wave
i ain’t got the time to let it waste
you can have the burner on ya waist
but you ain’t cooking sh-t
nah you ain’t pulling sh-t
a n-gg- ain’t a n-gg-
till he out here speaking ignorance
my mind been on my grind
while y’all children get belligerent
i know im still gone shine
even when they get to dimmin sh-t
’cause
(hook)
i’m a young n-gg- with an old soul
a young n-gg- with an old soul(x2)
