Mindset Lyrics by The Thought

[thnk.agn]

2019

[Intro: The Thought]
BLAQKNOIZ, yo, yo

[Verse: The Thought]
This is culture, this is human expression
This is fighting tooth and nail just to make an impression
We the soldiers, we the compass direction
We the anxious creatives, tryna conquer depression
This an art form, this an education for free
This an imperfection, so they got some mocking for me
We the platform, we the documentary three
We the drug-addicted, cause they been ignoring our pleas
Who gon' stand up? who gon' come for our necks?
Who gon' designate a rape out of consensual sex?
Now they pissed off? now they speak from the chest?
Now they organized, and rioting and triggered by text
This is awkward, this is taboo to speak
This is clipping your wings so you stay flapping your beak
We the paupers, we the priests in the creek
We the predatory planet that devours the meek, ay, yo

[Hook: Jonnie Bars]
Stimulate the conscious, though
Understand the process, yo
It's all about your mindset
Living out these rhymes I wrote
I need that reminder, yo
Yo, ay, yo, ay, yo
Manifest the shine that glows
Edison defined it, yo
Prove it with your knowledge!
Ideas over time will grow
But that system don't play kind, you know
Stick together, they can't stop it

[Verse: Jonnie Bars]
Self-sabotage being abolished
A la mode, peep how the style switch
She "Sapio-", no fellatio
She give me brain when I need knowledge
I be Almighty as the dollar
A Demi-God, I thank my momma
Felt evils rooted from my father
Them ego trips, a harsh reminder
To delete some bad habits so my journey doesn't follow
Learning curve, just discerning worth, working for tomorrow
Preparation made today, word to the Carpe Diem
Open to peace, with hopes it's willing to stay, but still

[Hook: Jonnie Bars]
Stimulate the conscious, woah
Understand the process, though
It's all about your mindset
Livin out these rhymes I wrote
I need that reminder, yo
Yo, ay yo, ay, yo
Manifest the shine that glows
Edison defined it, yo
Prove it with your knowledge
Ideas over time will grow
But that system don't play kind, you know
Stick together

[Verse: The Thought]
This is progress, this is blood in the gutter
This is brandishing your weapon cause you're hearing the mutters
We the contest, we the light in your shutter
We the massacre, of butterflies before they can flutter
This a conquest, this a cultural blender
This a revolutionary definition of gender
We the tauntine, we the Ethos of Bender
We the unrequited love, you been returning to sender
Who gon' cock back? Who gon' blast on the cops?
Who gon' hit the streets when the hat starts to drop?
Now they weakened, now they boarding their shops?
Now they hiding out in terror and hoarding their crops?
This is suspect, this is shameful to say
This is raising up your taxes while they docking your pay
We the success, we the end of your days
We the innkeepers, how you plan on earning your stay?
I'm saying
You better think again
