Pity. Lyrics by J Shepard

Maple Memoirs

2023

[J Shepard]
My high school diploma but a pitiful receipt
Receipt for the deceived that plagues me and the streets
Man I pray to god for clarity

Hope divine can help define
These thoughts running ahead of me
I'm ducking these emotions
Search for loopholes in my soul
These feelings foreign like my whips
Wrecking feelings
Crash and Burn
No gas don't lose control

Man I wish somebody would pray for me
It been a fucked up day for me
Lost hope and all the faith in me
For closure has indebted me

Can't lеt them get the bеst of me
Won't simmer down my energy
Grateful for my confidence and arrogance
They better listen when I speak
In fact I don't repeat

System fed us false delusion and realities for centuries
Withholding information from communities
Proudly you're a highly paid slave
Go in debt for me

Fuck a 9 to 5, I ain't working till forever no
Never sellout for my soul
Lucy pulled up I said no
Hiiipower help me keep control
You'll never get the best oh no

Watch out for the crooks three billion gone astray
Take a stroll, San Pedro
12 there like everyday

Fuck the system
Where's the funding?
Fund the schools for the future
Students running through the programs
I'm the one that got away

Bitch I'm sitting at the mic
Scream statistics to the masses
For injustice I will stand in
For my people I'll lead the way
Know I'll lead the way
Know I lead the way

[VARIATION]
Tell me where you're going
Tell me where you're going
Shit just don't make sense
Shit just don't make sense
You're a lovely one
You're a lovely one
You're all in my head
You're all in my head
