Trust The Child - Whose Keeper?

I don't know
I don't know about the rhymes
I don't want focus on hard times
I know we need gas make car drive
I know that we look like apartheid
I know if you approach her wrong, ima have to do hard time
And I ain't a hard guy, but press and I'll snuff out your li-

Don't you ever come at me, I'm sending a shot through the head of your family
I'm seeing in red, my brother on Ritalin and SSRIs cause he don't trust his head again
I said that I'm proud of him, I don't talk about it
Whose keeper am I?
Whose keeper am I?
I built a new bed and I'm locked in my dreams, so awake it's uncanny
I'm all in my head again, my lady on heaven sent and
"Your ass is gon die if you don't eat your breakfast and
I hate when you crazy"
Whose keeper am I?
Whose keeper am I?
I'm in a space, I'm in place, I think I'm sent for
I'm in the race, broke all brakes
What was you meant for, what was you?
What was you meant for, what was you?
Who is you?

I know it's dope that I been self for so long
Still I keep one eye in all my woe and go wrongs
Product of the pilots who flew the coup for cold lawns
But swore my worth in diamonds
And sold my soul for slow songs-

Who's done more than me?
Will all of my ancestors that's older than me come sit in the pool
We loading that bitch up with rosaries, ah
You need Christ like I need kitchen sink
You need help, cause you don't listen, pride'll make you mink
He'll wear your ass like bougie girl who need new dress
And pick a line by picket fence to post on gram
Bout how she really care bout all this homelessness (she really care)
Fuck the other side, nothing matters but the politics
You better fear for your life
Meanwhile I ain't had to work a decade, got a post-grad degree

I don't know
I don't know about the rhymes
I don't want focus on hard times
I know I need gas make car drive
I know that we look like apartheid
I know if you approach her wrong, ima have to do hard time
And I'm not a hard guy, but press and I'll snuff out your li-

Don't you ever come at me, I'm sending a shot through the head of your family
I'm seeing in red, my grandpa on medicine that's making him bite on his children's flesh
They don't trust his head again, I guess don't visit enough
Whose keeper am I?
Whose keeper am I?
I built a new bed and I'm locked in my dreams, so awake it's uncanny
I'm all in my head again, my grandmas nerves feel dead in her hands
And she's screaming in pain when she's cramping and I know I don't see her enough
Whose keeper am I?
Whose keeper am I?

Last chance, who's they, when you say that you do it for them?
Who's they, when you say, you moving away you could bring back a cheque
Who's they when you say that you way too busy and don't got the time to check in?
Who's they when you say they need your success? (Hm)

I prolly got like a hunnid more visits the rate I'm going there
They say I look good, I say that it's nice, I get to the showing off
New work and new shoes, new doors that I'm opening
But who's there, when I'm laying in bed and my brain'll be chokin out?
Ah, ah
Think I need a keeper case I slip and hit the hard floor
Think I'm making sleepers I been fishing for some honours
Hope that when I'm old my people take care of me proper
Hope when I have kids that they don't treat me like they father
