Lyrics
[Intro]
I really don't think they understand sometimes,
All they do is talk and talk,
Nobody ever really wanna listen,
Well here's the truth for you, here's the truth,
[Chorus]
Lost myself inside a busy hell,
Think about my truth and sleeping in a lonely cell
Justice isn't coming killing all our little wealth
Cast away onto our land said this the card we dealt
Truth spitting,
On a mission cause I've seen my cousins suffering and hustling
Jacked up on a millitant picture I see the flames in they shades,
Gassing all my people that dare to stand up today,
Rexton ain't been never the same,
[Verse 1]
Shout out the homies up in Eskasoni
I never plan on being phony, Ain't an activist or Holly roller
A'sutmat (aa-su-de-mat) to Gisu'lgw (gi-suulkw) every morning
So i understand, That your pain is mine,
Fame is fine but Id rather be loved than spit blind
Picking up on positive signs,
immma Survivor of a genocide, mi'kmaq pride, That's why,
I Keep my heart on my sleeve and my fist to the sky
No cuffs, help me when the talking is tough
I'm always starting it rough, But I been copping the rush,
For all you caught in a rut, know your spirit is up
Know your spirit is us we moving forward in love,
Bringing back the land I won't apologize
Hope is something that i'll keep till I die
Reach for the stars I don't want no loss,
Imma break with force and ill melt that frost
[Intro]
Lost myself inside a busy hell,
Think about my truth and sleeping in a lonely cell
Justice isn't coming killing all our little wealth
Cast away onto our land said this the card we dealt
Truth spitting,
On a mission cause I've seen my cuzins suffering and hustling
Jacked up on a millitant picture I see the flames in they shades,
Gassing all my people that dare to stand up today,
Rexton ain't been never the same,
[Verse 2]
Obsessed with the crime and the fame
Had us losing all our footing on the mountain of shame
Sons pulling out their knives to their mothers
In the struggle finna keep all of our people under rubble,
Buried in the struggle,
It's not our fault that he hate the color white,
Distrust they infringe upon our rights,
Got a tank against our people on a high horse
Snipers pointed at my head over a golf course,
Tell me if you've ever felt like you coud never succeed
If you knew that yo regalia d'be making a scene
Used to sit in all my classes tryna bury the creed,
Grampy talking bout our people bring the fire in me,
Endured a lotta loss, trouble part of my life
Reporting all I feel into infinity mics
Red is something that I wear because the feelin is right
Repping to the end of time, mama told me to fight
[Hook x2]
You'll always save yourself first,
Came up from a generation of a deep hurt
And I'll never be erased I would die first
Imma micmac coming with a loud verse, run it again,
[Bridge]
Lost myself inside a busy hell,
Think about my truth and sleeping in a lonely cell
Justice isn't coming killing all our little wealth
Cast away onto our land said this the card we dealt
Truth spitting,
On a mission cause I've seen my cuzins suffering and hustling
Jacked up on a millitant picture I see the flames in they shades,
Gassing all my people that dare to stand up today,
Rexton ain't been never the same,
