Yeah
Ain't here to ask nice
I'm here to say it plain
Raw truth on my tongue,
I don't sugar that Came up where the rent got loud and
the sirens snapped They sell you a flag and a cage with
a payment plan Then tell you be grateful and smile like a
made-up man I seen good people bent by a badge and a
bill Whole block got a prayer and a past due still I'm
not here for your rules dressed up in gold I'm here for
the ones getting priced out cold No mask on the rage,
no safe little slogan I write like a brick through the lie
left open West side in my bones,
with the curbside stare If the system wants peace,
then it better play fair Unapologetic,
I was built this way No king,
no chain, no script to play Unfiltered when I step,
let the whole truth break
West coast, raise hell,
let the ground line shake Unapologetic,
say it right to the face
No hand on my neck,
no fear in my pace I know moms with two
jobs and a landlord grin Know kids learning early what a
loss sounds like in skin Politicians talk clean while the water runs
rust Then they blame the poor when the pipes all bust I
don't romanticize pain, I report what I know
Corner store wisdom and a long walk home Every block got a
prophet and a fool in line Every crew got a scar that
it hides in rhyme So I speak with my chest,
let it crack if it must Truth ain't pretty,
it's smoke and dust If freedom means silence,
keep that off of me I'd rather stand out loud with my
people free
I don't need your pardon I don't need permission Only need a
beat and a reason to listen If the door stays locked,
we don't beg, we build If the line gets crossed,
then the room gets still Unapologetic,
I was built this way No king,
no chain, no script to play Unfiltered when I step,
let the whole truth break
West coast, raise hell,
let the ground line shake Unapologetic,
say it right to the face
No hand on my neck,
no fear in my pace
Still here
Still
loud
Still not bowing down
