In The Air

Lyrics

That's where you niggas got it fucked up and twisted
 They ain't scared about just a regular Black
 Man in America, yeah, they fear that nigga too
 But they fear the independent man
 They fear the nigga who goes out and gets his
 They fear the nigga that goes out and
 Says, "I ain't takin' no for an answer"
 They fear the man that says, "I'ma do it, I'ma make the corporation"
 They fear the man that thinks above the employee position
 They fear the man that wants to be a boss
 They fear the Black man in America who's accomplished
 When you step outside
 When you're in that Benz, when you're in that Bentley
 And you shine and you got your ice and your jewelry on
 They fear you, nigga
 Niggas gotta be stupid to not see what's goin' on out here
 They tryna black out every single successful Black man in America
 If bein' Black is bein culture, what's the cancel culture?
 Sound like some white shit them niggas planted on us
 The cops killin' only heroes on the cam recorders
 When major corporations ramblin' 'bout niggas on Twitter
 When all they did was put BLM in they handles for us
 Open your eyes, they ain't standin' for us
 It's 2020, been a year, God planned it for us
 A lot of things he got, plan it for us
 I'm in the ring like Rocky
 I got a shot type Aki, but it'll steal a score
 What's everybody in they feelings for?
 It's 'cause I'm aimin' at the ceilin' floor
 Still poppin' on these niggas, waitin' while they slither
 When I'm comin', they can feel it more
 The blogs only want my words just to switch 'em more
 What do you do when the court lawyers is tellin' you not to talk
 And as soon you don't, you playin' the villain for it?
 You got a lot of feelings still in store
 I'm still hearin' stories, that nigga talkin' 'bout Tory is over
 I'm God's child, I'm one of his most glorious soldiers
 I'm workin' at the old man's, custodian, quota
 I'm notorious for the stories of overcomin' the poorest of situations
 And comin' out glorious from 'em
 Niggas taught us to sell dope when you bored in the summer
 He was lackin' a couple cast, then got caught in the summer
 Pulled up on him
 They started clappin' his dome in the summer, no wonder
 That was my dawg, I used to fuck with him hard
 He pull up to the tour bus with the dawgs
 He used to tell me I'm a Don and I'm a prince
 And how I come with the charm
 And laughed back and say, "Don't fuck with no frauds"
 'Lil cuz, you a star
 Take me to the back, bust a cigar
 Told me rap and stop hustlin' raw, but I was doublin' hard
 Next step, cop comin' in car and you
 Was always there to bust up a charge
 Shit just fucked with me hard
 Now it's pannin' out, news cameras standin' out
 Wrongfully accused but on the news is what the man about
 Even my own friends hands wasn't out
 Tell me, what that's all about?
 Fame got us fallin' out
 Niggas hated on me, made me grind harder
 It's gon' be people that gon' switch when the times harder
 The door's open for a short line of niggas and it figures
 It's the time, I ain't tryna make my line longer
 I made my mind stronger
 I made my heart colder
 I work the best when my back was up at the wall for ya
 I'm goin' through some changes, close friends turn to strangers
 I'm tryna turn the pages even though it's anger in my heart for ya
 Yeah, more important than ever
 The snow is fallin' on my brain in the coldest December
 I tell a lie like, "Yo, I'm fine," but I'm holdin' together
 I'm back on pace for the race
 I'm at a rate where niggas just start
 Blowin' this cheddar so damn hard that I part ways
 With both of my hoes and had 'em both trippin' out and goin' together
 For all the ones that know me better, you know I'm fed up
 The only way to hold a set up is to know a set up
 I don't like to do this, y'all just act like I ain't human
 Please don't listen to the rumors that they try alludin'
 I've never hit no woman, why the fuck would I just do this?
 This be that dark label shit, them niggas tryna do me
 I know the secrets and I know the fuckery
 And they don't want me to say nothin' so they tryna shut— (Uh)
 But God the only one in line to judge me
 The other side and kind is ugly and they tryna fuck me, yeah
 What happened to the times of helpin' self?
 When we dehumanizin' celebrities with mental health
 Don't know the story, so we make one and upset ourselves
 So nowadays, I feel the pain from certain niggas I ain't never felt
 We just marched in unity about us bein' brothers
 And y'all ain't even hear my side, that's how we bein' brothers?
 It's kinda crazy, white folks ain't even sayin' nothin'
 Only celebs I'm seein' hatin' are my same color
 Get it together, we gotta get it together
 My nigga, we Black skin and we gotta live it together
 Fuck how you feelin' about me, we got a mission together
 You gotta listen, 'cause God, he gotta get his endeavor, preach
 Tory, you in this situation, not because he's hatin'
 He's usin' Megan as a vessel and a test of faith and
 Even when you at the bottom, it's when he makes his way in
 God, thank you for turnin' me into a demonstration
