P.S.A. Calm Down - Stro, Elbee Thrie

Where I’m from ain’t calm, they bust rounds

Label me role model, your kids like my sound

But that youngin ain’t affected, he lockin' them all down

Where I come from, it’s young niggas that go through it

Outsiders lose it, they steady blamin' the music, uh

My people product, yeah, they pushin' product, uh

They go to jail, business as usual

He got beef, he Crip, he threw a Blood up

White man throw you in jail like, «Nigga, shut up,» uh

We got the sets, the proper teens

We run the block but got no properties

And homie, we could all die tomorrow

Then why you wanna still stay and feel like mollow?

Uh

We hatin' them, why?

They hate themselves

E’rybody just do you, maybe that’ll help

If you knew what I knew, then you would come down (What you know?)

I know enough to know I know nothin' (What you know?)

I know enough to know government bluffin'

Real shot callin' like a group of a hunnid (Like a hunnid?)

And when you see 'em, they got infinite per diem

If you question, they delete 'em

Gave you bibles, you believed 'em

Can’t defeat 'em 'cause you need 'em with yo B and how you treat 'em

Death is nothin' to fear, that might be the only freedom, ah!

If you saw what I saw then you would calm down (What you see?)

'Cause you would know it really ain’t that serious

I see the same stuff when I come around (What you see?)

All around the world, same shit, different town, huh?

Now y’all people need to calm it down, East side, West side

Need to calm it down

South side, North side, need to calm it down

Everybody everywhere need to calm it down

Now if you heard what I heard, then you would calm down (What you heard?)

I heard the black man is the root, man

I ain’t surprised when the popo shoot, man (Shoot, man)

That’s how ya act when ya scared of the truth, man (Truth, man)

Man, I had a vision I was seein' it

Spent my whole life prophesizin', now I’m bein' it

Gotta keep knowledge itself or go crazy (Go crazy)

'Cause I communicate with Lord on the daily (On the daily)

And you wonder why these devils can’t fade me (Uh)

I do it to perfection

I don’t compete with rappers, I compete with reflection

What they do, I ain’t checkin'

Takin' shots on they records, I ain’t even affected

I used to rap for the money and the broads

Now I speak to teach each youngin that they be Gods

See, I don’t make music, I make frequencies

Frequently, meetin' people who believe in me

Don’t stress on who tweetin' me

If you feel what I feel, then you would calm down (How you feel?)

I’m feelin' like a muhfuckin' hypocrite (How you feel?)

I’m feelin' like we all muhfuckin' hypocrites

Ask God for life and we ain’t even livin' it (That's a fact)

Them apps stagard, your internet killin' characters

People edit they avi instead of breakin' them barriers

Need to lead of the rally, sharp minds the carriers

I’m talkin' sharp, sharp, sharper than gladiators-ors-ors

If you saw what I saw then you would calm down (What you see?)

'Cause you would know it really ain’t that serious

I peep the same stuff when I come around (What you see?)

All around the world, same shit, different town, huh?

Now y’all people need to calm it down, East side, West side

Need to calm it down

South side, North side, need to calm it down

Everybody everywhere need to calm it down

If you saw what I saw then you would calm down

'Cause you would know it really ain’t that serious

I peep the same stuff when I come around

All around the world, same shit, different town, huh?

Now y’all people need to calm it down, East side, West side

Need to calm it down

South side, North side, need to calm it down

Everybody everywhere need to calm it down

Thrie!
