Adam For Now & Troy No - Awareness

Don't believe everything you think
There's only one life
We've always had brains
And we never had minds
You won't change
And you can believe hype
There's no pain
And appearances exactly correspond with what exists
And there is no twist
And that's exactly how we live our life
We don't know
Heard about injustices they cover it pro-bono
Get up out yo' pot hole
Buy yourself a flag and wrap it 'round your Petey Pablo
Welcome back to rap
That XXL was my bible
I think I was lied to
Being black was cool but being half I was pariah
This is for my liars
This is for them rappers I looked up to acting pious
Sunday school on fire
Sneaking out out the back – I'm back
I was undecided
Being cool was cooler than being good so then I tried it
Better yet I thrived it
I was cool as hell and hell inside of me was frying
Crack an egg up on my head
And we were twelve when homie told me that he wished he's dead
Learn to be depressed before we learned to make our beds
Weezy felt like dying
Homie said he's jumping off of Rideau
And there's nothing I could buy him
Look at me now
This is my assignment
Wisdom is the blade that opened up the heart inside him
You can study science
Go to school like I did
But the real dissection's taking please behind your eyelids
In your pure awareness
Find it, don't grasp it, silence
In your pure awareness, find it
Look inside most of our thoughts are lying
Like: there's only one life
We've always had brains
And we never had minds
You won't change
And you can believe hype
There's no pain
And appearances exactly correspond with what exists
And there is no twist
And that's exactly how we live our life
We don't know know
Heard about injustices they cover it pro-bono
Get up out yo' pot hole
Buy yourself a flag and wrap it round your racks on racks
Ok I'm back to scratch your plaques and jump your couch
There's never been a Self for you to help
So help yourself
My mind is caged but I can't think myself outside this cell
From here alone the lonely road is only cold as I would I make it
Don't mistake your solitude for loneliness
Go into pure awareness
Find it, don't grasp it, silence
In your pure awareness, find it
Look inside most of our thoughts are lying
