Mic Flo - DON'T TELL ME Lyrics

You don't tell me
You don't tell me
You don't tell me what I'm sposed to be
I'm not trapped by my thought
My conscience and my soul is free
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
You don't tell me what I'm supposed to know
We're human and we make mistakes
That's how we're supposed to grow
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
You don't tell me that racism's gone
No matter what I do or where I look
It's still staying strong
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
And you don't tell me what I feel is wrong
They won't relate but act out their hate
That's until we're gone
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
You don't tell me what I'm sposed to be
I'm not trapped by thought
See my conscience and my soul is free
And you don't tell me what I'm sposed to know
We're human and we make mistakes
That's how we're supposed to grow
And you don't tell me that racism's gone
No matter what I do or where I look
It's still staying strong
And you don't tell me what I feel is wrong
They won't relate but act out their hate
That's until we're gone
You don't tell me I ain't got it
Nothing that I can't accomplish
That is why they stay astonished
On these beats I'm staying honest
That is not a vacant promise,
Only way I'm making progress
Cuz my soul they can't demolish, no
And you don't tell me I ain't awesome
I got tired of playing possum
Now play faking and I'm tossing
Hail Marys without displaying caution
Slay exhaustion, days I'm bossing
No way I stay forgotten, no
And you don't tell me what I'm sposed to think
I speak my truth in the booth
The rhythm & my flo's my shrink
And you don't tell me how I'm sposed to act
The mind's stories bore me
Look deeper so I know the facts
And you don't tell what I'm sposed to do
Thought distracts from the facts
So I try to focus through
And you don't tell me what I'm supposed to say
I look within my soul
That's how I always know the way
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
And you don't tell me what I'm sposed to think
I speak my truth in the booth
The rhythm & my flo's my shrink
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
And you don't tell me how I'm supposed to act
The mind's stories bore me
Look deeper so I know the facts
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
You don't tell what I'm sposed to do
Thought distracts from the facts
So I try to focus through
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
And you don't tell me what I'm supposed to say
I look within my soul
That's how I always know the way
You don't tell me
There's nothing you can tell me

You don't tell me
You don't tell me
You don't tell me what I'm sposed to be
I'm not trapped by my thought
My conscience and my soul is free
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
You don't tell me what I'm supposed to know
We're human and we make mistakes
That's how we're supposed to grow
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
You don't tell me that racism's gone
No matter what I do or where I look
It's still staying strong
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
And you don't tell me what I feel is wrong
They won't relate but act out their hate
That's until we're gone
You don't tell me
You don't tell me
You don't tell me what I'm sposed to be
I'm not trapped by thought
See my conscience and my soul is free
And you don't tell me what I'm sposed to know
We're human and we make mistakes
That's how we're supposed to grow
And you don't tell me that racism's gone
No matter what I do or where I look
It's still staying strong
And you don't tell me what I feel is wrong
They won't relate but act out their hate
That's until we're gone
You don't tell me I ain't got it
Nothing that I can't accomplish
That is why they stay astonished
On these beats I'm staying honest
That is not a vacant promise,
Only way I'm making progress
Cuz my soul they can't demolish, no
And you don't tell me I ain't awesome

No way I stay forgotten, no
And you don't tell me what I'm sposed to think

And you don't tell me how I'm sposed to act
