7egendary7arry - Strange Fruit

Strange fruit hanging from the leaves
Yea shout out to Eve
I just seen a strange noose
it was hanging from the trees
Yea but It’s for me
You niggas can’t hang with me no
You can’t hang
I’m just tryna maintain
White cop killa nigga
Black nigga kill a nigga
Same thing
Every nigga is a star tho
I’m just tryna see tomorrow
We gettin lost in the flame
We was wading in the water
So the dogs wouldn’t follow
But we got lost on the way
It’s been heavy on my conscience
I been ducking all the nonsense
But still it’s weighing on my brain
I been drowning all my sorrows
In the bottom of a bottle
Tryna take away the pain
Tryna take away the pain
Strange fruit hanging from the leaves
Yea Shout out to eve
I just seen a strange noose it was hanging from the trees
Yea but It’s for me
You niggas can’t hang
I been living on the edge
I got demons in my closet
I got voices in my head
It’s like I’m talking to the dead
They think I’m off my meds
Tryna push me off the edge
And I’m just tryna get ahead
We went from having dreams
To living in a nightmare
Every day is like a fight here
Land of free
But this the Home of the slaves
And We just tryna get saved
Where we from it ain’t safe
I’m just tryna touch base
It’s like I’m living in a cage
Or better yet a maze
And I’m just tryna find the way
To give my people better days
Give my people better days
It’s like I’m livin in a maze
And I’m just tryna find a way to give my people better days
