Do Better - OG Maco

The world been unforgiving so it’s fitting that we are

It’s hopeless souls who’re gifted but won’t make it off that block

And mothers know to tell their sons be wary of the cops

Skin locked, friends lost, the picket fence was never ours

Swapped the white for grayish bars, child time, wreck time

Deion stuck in AR

Life is like a box of chocolates but these bastards spit in ours

Crackers kill in cold blood, they just let Darren Wilson walk

If we go grab kalashnikovs, we’re savage brutes, they’ll pick us off

Trayvon couldn’t have a hoodie on

Kimani Gray was empty handed

Lil' Tamir was only 12 when they killed him November 22nd

Cameron Tillman, Sean Bell

This ain’t nothin' new to us

New Emmett Tills, you know the drill

They’re lynchin' still, just usin' guns

The biggest threat is our brown skin

With mouths filled and worth somethin'

All they want for us is crack houses and a hearse, somethin'

All these rich niggas in the world still won’t unite nothin'

I won’t play the hype and just blame whites

We gotta build somethin'

Yeah I know we’ve been thuggin'

But that shit is why we’ve been strugglin'

Repair, replace, let’s heal youngins

Our daddy said let’s live abundant

You know what I’m sayin'?

Man it’s niggas out here just doin' shit.

You feel me, nigga?

Go do somethin', nigga.

Grab a young man, tell him do

better

The drug is life, fuck pills, homie

Have you ever even left your hood?

What’s good, you need a trip don’t you?

Just don’t use the Lucy

You repute it, access putrid

.45 and you’ll use it

You don’t want a 9 to 5

Make a plan and fortify

Of being court and all mortified

They hand the sentence that’s big as shit

You won’t see the light 'til you’re 65

Just win, my nigga

It takes plenty focus and equal drive

You gotta dig, fuck pity

And my city love the semi

Hate is auto when you’re so far ahead they just gotta follow

I got this firearm, I will come behead 'em

Big headed, my mind like Mandark in Dexter

Stop tryna preach, just teach, or reach that nigga under pressure

And press a presidential potential

But he can’t shine from them trenches

Sports weren’t made for everybody

He spends his time on them bitches

Lose your pride and use your mind

You have to mine it for the riches

Do them dishes if you want

That residue’ll have you gone

The rent is due, you need some food

You give a fuck less what I’m on

I underdigged, don’t get me wrong

But there’s a world we gotta change

We start with you, I’ll get them goin'

This shit’ll be a marathon

Let it marinate, let that man cook

May this truth I speak give me awkward looks

And open minds that’s been mistook

Young Richard Nix, I’m not a crook

Let’s keep it real, it’s change afoot

Bitch

Y’all don’t understand so y’all can see it when you see the master plan,
