Dre Pierré - RATHER

Sunday morning, sun is early rising in the summer
Mama rushing in my room to raise me up from my slumber
She say it's time for church
And I ain't want to go
Well since you home grab a broom & mop and clean the floor
Fuck it might as well, I'd rather my cleanse my own spirit
Than to let some nigga preach and tell stories behind a podium
A born rebel speaking my beliefs, sometimes the only one
Burden on my back, shit was weighing 'bout a ton
Rather have my gun than to get caught slipping
'Cause these niggas always tripping, hate to see yo wrist flicking
No Scottie Pippen, rather be the lone star fast breaking, racing to my destiny
If Marley shot the sheriff fuck it I'll just shoot the deputy
For the black lives they took
For faceless names in the books
Have these motherfuckers shook
Would you rather die scared living with the flock of sheep
Or would you rather die free and have some peace in yo eternal sleep
Rather have my family living kind of isolated
Living off the land while the FBI investigating
I don't give a fuck 'cause they always watch and lurk (Man)
I'd rather be prepared, expect the worst accept the hurt
'Cause the lesson's in the pain not the triumphs unless you dumb
Simple minded, rage in silence, times get hard you up & run
But I'm a leader I'm a warrior, a fucking god
They ever catch me I'll be locked behind these fucking bars
All I got is my word and my balls (Yea)
Reached for the sky, whole hands palming stars
Talking to the moon how I came this far
Sometimes I'd rather leave the earth just saying fuck it all (Yea)
Sometimes I'd rather just say fuck it all
My ultimate mission is to find a piece of salaam
Eyes closed, meditating, staying calm
(Staying calm, no worries)
Fuck all y'all
