RaShad Eas - Day Ones, Day Nows

Day one's day now
Day one's day now
Day one's day now
Day one's day now

This for the day ones that listened from the beginning
When I spoke what I lived of course there no pretending
Those that identify with the ways that we were living
Those that heard use your head and went and got transitions
Appreciate the pain cause struggle was on the life's menu
Wrestling with my thoughts listen don't let the lies pin you
Everyone in the world is not supposed to get you
Can't be thinking saying to self-everyone's out to get you
When I first came focused on race it's obvious to me
Imagine be a nineties hip hop star live a movie
Had to grow from the days when I thought I was ugly
Lost want a bunch of hoes instead of one Queen to touch me
Got accustomed to elders trying to hush me
That made me hate myself and not trust me
No wonder I thought relationship was jail, no one cuffing me
Boys in blue feels like your sticks and guns lusting for me
Damn Bullets got no name guns got perpetrators
Just like turtle island got colonizers and invaders
The young me was okay saying I am king and a player
Now I see how kind of thinking makes me a hater
Damn woke up out of school daze
Those that cause pain that's who fools praise
Those that hate themselves start the day with Duce
Get drunk early try to feel good like Michael Buble
It's a trick like the devil exists
You got no power of self, mister and miss
It's a trick like the devil exists
You got no power of self, mister and miss

Day one's day now
Day one's day now
Day one's day now
Day one's day now

This for my day now's those appreciate that know I want to give love
Those that appreciate by five AM I'm Already up
You can remember being a confused teenager
Those that had one and those that know nothing about a pager
Those that understand all praise to the creator
You know now is the time to move don't save it for later
I'm Burning my old bones my own cremator
Moving like Jedis, lyrics are light sabers
Got this good cutting my teeth my tooth sabers
Enemies in private and public I made my own flavor
Flave I speak to those that came out the cave
I get wisdom and love from ancestors in the grave
I speak to those scientists in the projects
Speak to suburb babies whose hard times didn't start yet
I speak to black babies that are divine
I speak for those that use their hands their minds
Those that love themselves living cool days
Call each other God that's what my crew say
Used to run to now run from fiasco, love Lupe
I love you in radio LL cool J
This is for my day ones that heard my anger was I complaining
No, I can blame society instead of victim shaming
Day ones probably thought, he can't be a Christian
I taught day ones, instead of judging, just listen
To my day now's that think I'm sexy
I looked down barrels, hurt myself crying God help me
I love my day ones, that thought I shouldn't be cursing
I love my day now's that love my sh** they see it working

This for my day ones
This for my day now
This for my day ones
This for my day now
This for my day ones
This for my day now
This for my day ones
This for my day now
