the importance of / self belief - mckinley dixon lyrics

[verse 1]
heavy as the thought of heaven with a heart of gold
lil’ homie subject of a tale that molds
men into villains defending they feelings
it ain’t new
but what you do when that sh*t consume you?
the animosity building up to the brink
when your homie’s stones skip and yours just sink
right before your eyes
start looking down from the sky
wondering, god why?
it was gotta give
if you alive, can’t tell me how to live
if you can thrive, then that chain is what you gotta give, up
and if they askin’ better duck
you ain’t from around they parts
then you better run, f*ck
‘cause life flashed before his eyes
too bad he couldn’t outrun the past
fast enough to survive
it followed him
and then the nightmares ensue
it ain’t new what you do
what you do, uh

[verse 2]
blast to smithereens
a flower that’s withering
let’s help him out
rip him out of the ground like weeds
unhappy uninhabitable place i’m in
what i do then?
me and friends take it out on him
me and homies they ain’t know me
name and place for me only
leader position was given
we desire living
so that should be enough
and if not, we play rough
please don’t call my bluff
we really ain’t that tough
you don’t know what it’s like
the corner sharp as a knife
pressure you to step on that asphalt
trip, that yo ass fault
get your ass, huh, to a darker division
where you forced to make that decision
wanna be the hero?
well you ending up the villain
concealing your identity
running up on enemies
this whip is your tomb
all that rushes in his mind
as they sit in his room
this ain’t new what you do
when that sh*t consume you
i’m gone
[chorus]
avoiding these streets
run and hurt my feet
this music is a certain release
and that’s the importance of self belief
ducking from police
a few homies that’s deceased
this music is a certain release
and that’s the importance of self belief

[verse 3]
pop off cut ‘em out like the middleman
see the red and blue
circle round the back, ceiling fan
we ain’t do it man, we just wanna have fun
then why when i’m outside, my walk turn to a run
escapism from racism
we pray god stay with him
well he can miss that deed
unaware somewhere there’s a boy up on his knees
god hear a prayer from the opposition’s seed
who we gonna hear first?
he feared worse
then a kid with a gun, kid with the vengeance for one
kid who ain’t never ever ever run
kid who’s bone to pick is with everyone
everyone, look at what he spun it don’t phase him none
you push him and he push back
attached to his hip
he wielding the confidence for that
explore, and watch his little left arm soar
there’s plenty black boys in heaven
and god really wouldn’t mind one more
[chorus]
avoiding these streets (bang, bang)
run and hurt my feet
this music is a certain release
and that’s the importance of self belief
ducking from police
a few homies that’s deceased
this music is a certain release
and that’s the importance of self belief
