1% Lyrics by Genecist

20:20

0

Some of us took the time to make a dream come true
Went far beyond a Mic check 1 2 1 2
I learned why laziness is a sin that was mentioned by God
Cause a home body ain't ever gonna make it too far
Sittin ducks, sittin stuck, all they reach is for blunts
Starin deeply at the commercials only wishin and want
Never go get! It's sad when you think of the time wasted
Literal seconds taken to the pit of the basement/
One thing about time is it can't be used twicе
So in our lifetime it's really likе you lose life
And the things you do like are bein done by someone
Had by someone, somebody else is havin yo fun
That's kinda twisted, listen, I'm the type that live with conviction
Ma determination make it certain I'm really livin
What's worst than a dream deferred?
A voice unheard, a life unlived, progress that never occurred
1% 1% 1%
Keep doin what the 1% do
99% of the world live in struggle
In the way that the 1% want us to
100% of us breathe the same air
Bleed red and we all go'n die
So what percentage are you livin yo life
The 1% ain't go'n let it go by nah
Hear a whole lotta complainin
See not a lotta doin
Technology everywhere
And y'all livin in ruins
It's funny what complacency
Can do to entire nations
They blatantly entrapped you
Said they gave you freedom in cages
That's outrageous
What's worse is all the bait bein taken
Tell you make America great
By reestablishin hatred
I see beyond the typical
And what appears to the eye
Clear as a summer sky
Yeah I hear before I reply
Learn the method behind the madness
I'm buildin my skills
Ain't nobody puttin me on
Cause who cares how I feel
My body and my soul
No one lives it but me
So my choices and actions
Carve out who I'm gonna be
(Spoken)
So you really gotta think about it
Would you rather mope and complain
That someone ain't do this and that for you and...
That's why you wasted your life
Hook:
1% 1% 1%
Keep doin what the 1% do
99% of the world live in struggle
In the way that the 1% want us to
100% of us breathe the same air
Bleed red and we all go'n die
So what percentage are you livin yo life
The 1% ain't go'n let it go by nah
