Black Birds

[Intro]
Yeah
There's no light that can't outshine darkness, you feel me?
Uh

[Verse 1]
I hear gunshots, but I'm not scared, though
Blackbirds flyin' 'round the field of the scarecrow
Wishin' my dead homies around, but they're not there, though
Hopin' for equality, but life's not fair, so
Murder around the corner, feel the death in the air, bro
Bodies in the trenches, but how can I care, though?
Venom put the poison on the tip of my arrow
A legend in the hood based just off keepin' it thorough
Adamantium runnin' in my veins and my marrow
Shinin' through the darkness, yeah, Allah got a rare glow
In the lab, writin' spells and rituals
Yeah it's rap, but it's spiritual
The dragon's lineage was imperial
To survive this long is a miracle where I'm from
[?] poverty is hysterical
Trigun - .38 flip you like a varial
As he laid in a pool of blood, lookin' terrible

[Chorus]
I ask Allah why I'm sinnin' so much
Hennessy and a Dutch - is it ever enough?
'Cause I'ma keep it G, it's been rough, I'on know
Where I wanna be, to get there, it seems so tough
I ask Allah why I'm sinnin' so much
Hennessy and a Dutch - is it ever enough?
'Cause I'ma keep it G, it's been rough, I'on know
Where I wanna be, to get there, it seems so tough
Seems so tough
Seems so tough, seems so tough, seems so tough
Seems so tough
Seems so tough, seems so tough, seems so tough

[Verse 2]
Yo, what's the next step?
People dyin' over rep, it's nothin' less
Gotta pay your respects
For all the soldiers locked down that may not ever see the light
Hold your head, pray before I rest every night
'Cause we closer to death every day and night
So I gotta make sure that I'm a'ight, a'ight?
So much sorrow, so much fight
Will I make it through the night?
