J. Khan - Fall from Grace

These blankets are only as warm as the soul that they coat
The state of our world we really don't care its all for the show
We want it with mirrors when we ask for the smoke
Illusions elude our perceptions they took us for jokes
Downplay the vileness they paint on with smiles like there weren't no Jim Crow
Repulsive ass vultures they stole from a culture with beautiful souls
Shackled the world dividing and conquering right from their homes
I was a kid why was I lookin' for drones in 2004
We been through shit that no one will know, just let it go
It was last night we went to the store
The very next morning I saw it explode
News said we were out of control
So U.S. would shoot and fill 'em with holes
The numbers kept rising I kept watch on the tolls
Hundreds or thousands who were sleeping in homes
But when reality had hit I think i just froze
The ones that were killed were mainly just kids
Some were my age few shared my name
But ever since then I was never the same no
I’ve fallen from grace I wont be the same no
I’ve fallen from grace I wont be the same no
I’ve fallen from grace
I’ve been robbed of my innocence
Youngin’ I'm losing all my patience
They cant even be bothered man
To get to know who I really am bro
People who say they love me most
Equate me to who I really hate though
So I look around like who’s really there
I look around and wonder who cares though
These blankets are only as warm as the souls that they coat
Makes sense why I always feel so cold
No matter the heavenly warmth you put me on
I'm ungrateful I blame my ego
Can you blame me for feeling I don't belong
I'm not accepted nowhere, they want me gone
Tell me who do I claim when nobody claim me
I'm born in the mid west raised in your mid east
I'm tired of the ignant, please don't try me
Minding my business why despise me
I've fallen from grace I wont be the same no
I've fallen from grace I wont be the same no
I've fallen from grace
I've been robbed of my innocence
Youngin’ I'm losing all my patience
They cant even be bothered man
To get to know who I really am bro
People who say they know me most
Equate me to who I really hate though
I've fallen from grace I wont be the same no
I've fallen from grace I wont be the same no
I've fallen from grace, ugh
I've fallen from grace, yeah
