Black Thoughts Lyrics by E-Wes

2017

My mind weeps when an idea leaps
My inner dialog a crying frog I'm lost (x2)

Jumping from frog to frauds
But you couldn't keep a log
Jumping from dog to dogma
Girl you better evolve
Yeah we better evolve (yo)

What the hell is thee cost of being held back
Express ship white so they mailed blacks
Wanna heal so the smoke we inhaled that
Instead of rebuild they ship you where the jails at
No coughs stacked in halls like coffins
No halls thoughts catch a cold heart frosted

But to be the boss
Like the doctor's office
You need to have sick patience
And never sit waiting
Must strike a balance to deliver big statements
And know where you've Ben to negotiate Franklins
Fuck banking boy I'm talking about ranking
To claim my true placement in this nation that we're making
Put a fire to your past enlighten your basement
Heighten your fragrance
This is life amazing and tragic
Growth psychopathic like flowers in the attic
My flow glow magic like power when it passes

So Let me take it father for you bastards
Yeah let me take you back
Let me take you back
Where it all started
My duffel bag compartments
Was my fucking apartment

My back to the wall It's back to reality
I don't see why these phony people wanna smile at me
My mind is so intolerant to anonymous bothering
My mind is more inclined with finding the time to survive and shit

Gotta get away

[Snippet: Eric Garner]
"I can't breath"

[Snippet: George Zimmerman]
"These assholes always get away"
