lyrics

[Verse 1]
Welcome to square one
Back against the wall
No one else to call
All your options you done failed em
Gotta do something new
Cause you too comfortable
Thought your rep alone would carry you
A high rise is a quicker fall
With no foundation you done lost it all
All your attention when to the broads
And you lost yourself chasing a mirage
Time to whip them gears into motion
My whole life I been roller coasting
I’m used to the valleys & the peaks
But I ain’t been this low in bout 50 weeks
I don’t even dream when I got to sleep
Probably cuz the weed fuck with how I think
I gotta develop a new perception
But I got the aim like a Smith and Wesson
And when they spin the block better duck your head
It ain’t gotta be ya beef for you to end up dead
It’s annihilation with retaliation
This ain’t fascinating
You just fabricated
First I See a lick now I’m salivating
I’ll hit it with the proper preparation
Bet I bring the drama I’m so dedicated
With a four-door Chevy to my destination
Equipped with tools and hammers like we renovating
We gon fuck this shit up with no hesitation

[Pre-Chorus]
Lately, I been reminiscing watching time past
If you knew you was driving to your death would you drive fast
I see homeless men on the street, it’s hard to drive past
That could easily be me shit I’m being honest
I’m tryna be introspective
I just hope your ears receptive
Being the change I want to see
You can’t help but respect it
2011 seals
Finally found his purpose
Cause back then I was barely Scratching the surface
I can only imagine what’s ahead of me
A young nigga I’m just tryna build a legacy
And I ain’t religious but I just painted a church
I got angels around me
Broke the generation curse

[Chorus]
Shackles off my feet
Shackles off my feet
I wanna run up them bands
Shackles off off my feet
Shackles off off my feet
Everybody raise up ya hands
Shackles off my feet
Shackles off my feet
I wanna run up them bands
Shackles off off my feet
Shackles off off my feet
Everybody raise up ya hands

Shackles off my feet
I spilt paint all in the street
In front of the city hall
I bet the mayor mad at me
But that’s the type of shit you do
When you want change drastically
Brought it to reality
Then Added tenacity
To the ones on the frontline
Who done put in all that time
This shit gon change for the better
Or we’ll burn all this shit down
Like we did in 2014
Now let’s get reacquainted
Grabbed my brush started creating
From then I was activated
I was lost but then I was found
Right back in my hometown
Not a dollar to my name and my back against the wall
Out the dirt like a pitchers mound
To the ones on the frontline
Who done put in all that time
This shit gon change for the better
Or we’ll burn all this shit down

[Outro]
Shackles off my feet
Shackles off my feet
I wanna run up them bands
Shackles off off my feet
Shackles off off my feet
Everybody raise up ya hands
Shackles off my feet
Shackles off my feet
I wanna run up them bands
Shackles off off my feet
Shackles off off my feet
Everybody raise up ya hands
