5limleek - The Definition (Intro) Lyrics

This is, this is where it matters most

How do you go through, through
What they put you through
How do you go through, through
What they put you through
How do you go through, through
What they put you through
How do you go through, through
What they put you through

Yeah I always been the underdog
Just like I'm David against Goliath
Asking where my pops at while my mommy steady lying
Frail hearted wit the soul of Achilles yeah just get near it
Just a conscious rapper wit no kindred spirit
Yeah I know you feel it
Momma say pops ain't shit and he got his repercussions
Can't go to the family church cus last time I cried to the usher
Can't cry no more I gotta hide this pain behind this humor
Sis did the same but mom locked her up just so we wouldn't lose her
Sorry I gotta interject, I know ima mess
I grew up wit that close up action nigga, no fucking distant threats
Five niggas waiting at the bus to empty my pockets and pick my brain
Building up my rage five years to see that i can't be detained
And I'm thinking there's gotta be another way
Than to grow up killing and hoping one day
That ima break the bank
Sleeping rough and wake to momma singing
And speaker playing
My momma giving her all to make us so happy but I'm still so angry
Maybe cus I got niggas jumping me just cus I was different
Maybe cus I called to god and that nigga never listened
Maybe cus my sis release date was still fucking pending
Fam want me to shine but I lost so much light
I can barely glisten
Ima wallflower amongst a forest full of fucking herbs
I give it all I got and still don't get what the fuck I deserve
Pops said why hold the pain in if you never gone address it
Never spoke on that I learned my lesson
It's just the redefinition

How do you go through
Everything that they put you through
