IAMOPB, Taigenz - REFLECTION & PROGRESSION Lyrics

Yeah, uh uh
Look
We're just some inner city kids
Singing that inner city gospel
It ain't the most clean
But I guarantee you it's the most authentic
Feel me
Look
I've been stealing
It's been stalling, my progression
I've been feeling like I'm falling
Now I've risen, I've been healing
It's my calling, my position
I've been pealing my old flaws and
Learn my lessons
I've been stealing
It's been stalling, my progression
I've been feeling like I'm falling
Now I've risen, I've been healing
It's my calling, my position Lord
Lord Lord
When you beef with old friends
Is that really beef
Or was it years of them hiding as an enemy
If you put your foot down, set your boundaries
Did you switch up, or finally found how to speak
In the streets man, I done seen so much drama
Homeboy got a bullet in his head, someone call they mama
Luckily he survived, next thing you know I'm the one fighting
I defended myself with words, but he still came out knifing
So who's inviting to this very, very day
My mother and my father ain't know I lost my way
Back a couple years ago, that I would say
But God remained my compass that's why I always prayed
Even though that
I've been stealing
It's been stalling, my progression
I've been feeling like I'm falling
Now I've risen, I've been healing
It's my calling, my position Lord
Lord Lord
Feds is watching, all the sirens
I can hear them, aunty told me what the police
Got to fear them
My white homies ain't got issues, pulling over
I get followed and they ask me, am I sober
Crime scenes like movie scenes in the making
All the chalk and the tape like we back in pre-K grading
Speaking of the classrooms, I know chemistry the most hated
So it's quite ironic then you all about what's bacon
So I ask again, when you beef with old friends
Is that really beef
Do you trust the ones you've made, when you out the streets
I could remember making beats after getting beat
When you want to reach the sun, you gon catch some heat
I've been stealing
It's been stalling, my progression
I've been feeling like I'm falling
Now I've risen, I've been healing
It's my calling, my position
I've been pealing my old flaws and
Learn my lessons
I've been stealing
It's been stalling, my progression
I've been feeling like I'm falling
Now I've risen, I've been healing
It's my calling, my position Lord
Lord Lord

Yeah, uh uh
