[Verse 1: Noname] Opportunity knockin', a nigga was out for coffee Inadequate like my window, the Grammys is way too lofty And I could stay here forever, I could die here I don't have to try here; can I get my two sugars please? Jesus made an album, I'm still waiting in the line for cream She dream in techni-color, live black and white Opportunity knockin', a nigga just got her nails done Skeletons in my closet gon' open the door when Yale come They ain't gonna wanna see my silhouette rap He's fucking cognac, my smile in all black Mississippi vagabond; Granny gon' turn up in her grave And say, "My granny really was a slave for this? All your uncompleted similes and pages ripped You know they whipped us niggas, how you afraid to rap it? You went to heaven after so we could free them now Ain't no ocean floor when you can be a Yeezus now." [Hook: Eryn Allen Kane] Don't fear the light that dwells deep within You are powerful beyond what you imagine Just let your light glow [Verse 2: Noname] Seventeen moments and cloudy days on my snap Mysterious aberration, illuminated the trap My telefone-calications synonymous with the sunrise Mountains against the foreground forever me coming back I ain't gonna cry; the last time Ali marched Chicago Twenty-four and a late mojo teaching me how to drive Whole world inside my rearview, this feeling, me so alive This feeling, me so alive, enjoy the joyride Opportunity knockin', it's finally time to answer The doorbell was only broken cause auntie was fighting cancer And cigarettes on my mantle keep callin me by my first name Loving me when I'm lonely, pretending they really Noname [Hook: Eryn Allen Kane] Don't fear the light that dwells deep within You are powerful beyond what you imagine Just let your light glow [Outro: Akenya] And when that call comes (You better say hello) You better say hello, no hesitation (You better, yeah) No hiding deep down below No beg your pardon (You better stay and grow) You better stay and grow your liberation (You better, yeah) For your lonely soul Or you’ll be on your own
