mask or aid - o'hene savant lyrics

it’s eternal music
18 minus 18 past and future

[verse 1]
i speak bars that help me reach for the stars that made me one of the stars you see with venus and mars, ok
you gotta form but ’til your greatness is formed, the only reason they fawn is ‘cause of what you adorn so wait
what is you? what is the image you mimic?
what is the style you mimic? what part of it is authentic?
how much of you is rigid enough to go and be different?
what is the percentage you would admit is timid, in this masquerade, with the master face?
it’s how we cope without dope, it’s how we mask our pain
it’s how we last through rain when the forecast is gray
or how we grab our faith ‘cause someone p-ssed away
immaterial, even though we’re livin’ in material, it’s spiritual
hearin’ though in stereo’s a miracle
i reach through the air, expose what you’re wearing so
when we’re ready to walk into the light we know where to go
we know where to go

[chorus]
said i got a mask on and
don’t know what to do with it
guess i got a mask on and
truly i am through with it
da da da da da da da da da da da
da da da
da da da da da da da da da da da
da da da

[verse 2]
i hide behind a brand for my fans and stuff
you hide behind a desk for your manager
break it down, that’s a man-ager
9-to-5s pay the bills, stress last labor so we
clock in, clock in
while the clock god gave tick tock, tick-tocking
but we got no options
what an excellent performance but n0body’s applauding
they say the world is a stage, i guess the artist is the audience
i see a lot of what it takes to get ahead
watching people crop pieces of their features for the internet
my feed flooded with highlights of y’all lives
my eyes observe much better than my life
the [?] comparison, the embarr-ssment of saying you’re the truth when the truth is another narrative
maybe it’s for protection, maybe it builds your character
maybe it makes you feel safe parading as a character
we hidin’
i see ya

[verse 3]
in conclusion, all this is an illusion
everything that you see in this world is really confusing
when really it could be simple
but typically we tend to complicate what is easy
it’s easy to miss potential in this rat race
humans that foolishly move at that pace can never keep up so they walk around with a sad face
wait, backsp-ce, let me rephrase that phrase
they walk around wearing stress hidden under the mask
they the children of capitalism, treated like b-st-rds up in the system that had ‘em but never planned to be parentin’ ‘em
before we reach the end, i suggest we seek the beginnin’
we define what is winning, let’s redefine what is winning and i’m
i’m looking at you
