Evolution

I wanna expand my brain but I'm trapped in prison
Got me shackled up with chains for the maximum sentence
I'm tryna get out my ways and bring me back to senses
And maybe teach myself some game and turn my rags to riches, hm

Ain't no excuse we all start at the bottom
Gotta learn to speak your truth
And that's just part of the process
Shit, if I ain't disillusioned
Guess I'm part of the problem
You pulling flowwers out the roots
When I just wanted to blossom
And I'm exhausted but I tried my best
We need to change 'cause we was tried of stress
Tyna flex
Bought you a chain but couldn't buy respect
I'm not impressed
We can't evolve unless we follow steps
It's not a test
I'm tired of frontin' like we're not oppressed
And I thought if I was rich
Then all my problems be through
'Til I made a few million
And now I got more problems than you
I know it feels good to win
But it hurts a lot when you lose
Don't ever say what you gon' do
Unless you following through

I'm talking execution
Uh
And I don't know where I'm going
But I'm learning as I'm growing
That's the evolution
Hope I don't finish last
I'm still healin' from my past
I need some retribution
Did a lot of gettin' even
But I'm sick and tired of beefin'
What's the resolution?
I'm talkin evolution

I gotta be honest
I never thought that I would pop this quickly
Feels good to look at my phone and see Rihanna hit me
Nah, it ain't no no shit like that
Shorty a goddess to me
Just one of my friends that I can vent to
When my conscience get me
Look I ain't into what niggas is doin'
I'm on some other shit
I never been a type to turn up and be on that clever shit
I'm lookin at niggas like
"Bruh, you grown, how you still love this shit?
I'd rather be home and watch some movies with my son and shit
'Cause I ain't trying to impress nobody that shit get old quick
Like staring at an old flick
Tryna travel back in '06
Maybe hope for what I won't get
All that temporary happiness only last 'til you grow sick
And them lights start to grow dim
And the walls start to close in
And then time starts to pass you by
Don't act surprised
Better be careful what you ask from god
I had some jobs, shit, I quit and took control my nigga
Got tired of building companies up that I ain't own my nigga
It's time to grow my nigga, evolution

(Na, na, na, na na)

And I don't know where I'm going
But I'm learning as I'm growing
That's the evolution
Hope I don't finish last
I'm still healing from my past
I need some retribution
Did a lot of gettin' even
But I'm sick and tired of beefin'
What's the resolution?
I'm talkin' evolution

(Na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na)
