• Way In Way Out

One mans trash is another man's treasure/
but most men treasure what other men have/
so little thrown away to the many that will never/
grasp what few view as pennies in the grass/
& underneath the grass are the roots of inequality/
creating all the bumps we come across on the path/
& I don't have a green thumb & neither niggas/
& having a money tree is a luxury of class/
the only ho I know for a flattering ass/
& when I asked could she dig it, she looked at me & laughed/
so we crabs in a barrel & barrel glass/
so we broke, crack was the answer to cash/
but the question was never asked/
how I get off the path/
steady walking within a maze the was built in the last/
century, eventually we'll raise our hands/
but the teacher is apart of the scam, god damn/

Chorus
Got me looking for a way out, a way out, way/ running down a fire escape to to get away/
got me looking for a way in, a way, way in/
got me looking at your doors & your windows/

I'm a product of the environment that I was brought up in/
material things I'm caught up in/
hustling, a product that creates the production/
a plus then for for shackles that resemble circumference/
my world, my word, I'm running from my block/
right into your wall, street/
that when I see up close is just prop/
designed to keep me cropped/
outside of the picture that pictures the people in defeat/
so i'ma cook the books like a communist bonfire/
& tell uncle Sam I forgot the recite/
& he gon call me a liar & I'm gon call him a thief/
the jury looking like him enjoying looking at me/
at my arraignment screaming/
all is blacks got is sports & entertainment & a belief in/
religion as the answer for the grieving/
believing that the bless get test/
& the less get even/

Chorus

Running away from trouble got me running into you/
running away from darkness got me running into view/
running towards all the lights got me running from blue & whites/
running for you by day hope I run into you by night/
running for an election to run the country for who/
run & tell the news that you run it for something true/
run it into the ground, run it into the tomb/
run it until there's nothing, run it until we lose/
