Like Really - Oddisee

Why you want to catch my eye

When you already know that

I'm taken nah like really

How you past due on payments

And I'm seeing you on vacation nah like really

How you gonna make us great

When we were never really that amazing nah like really

Take it back to what

I don't find hanging black lives entertaining nah like really

How do you police the streets of

A neighborhood you do not engage in nah like really

Why a brother get three for

A sack while your brother go free for a raping nah like really

How you make a film about egypt with

All leading roles caucasian nah like really

How you saying all lives matter when

The stats say we are not adjacent nah like really

Tell me if I got it all wrong

Like I signed on the line but I didn't read the form

And the fine print is all about the times we mourn

And the color of my skin means I gotta be strong

And your hand me down faith said if I was reborn

When I take my last breath that you'll let me breathe on

And as of right now we could never be pals

So how are we supposed to get along nah like really

This now more than ever though

All about force and measure though nah like really

Why am I forced to let it go

And clean your messes though nah like really

You take jobs to mexico

Pay us less and lesser though nah like really

Promised to bring them back

And that problem gets the vote nah like really

Really

Really

Really

I be on the grind all day

I don't pay mind to the date nah like really

Missed call vibrate

I find most times it could wait nah like really

I don't talk blue in the face

Just to make movement in place nah like really

Out of breath watching other man steps and

You wonder why you re losing the race nah like really

I was sleeping on floors

Making bread instead of bed on tour man nah like really

If you ain't never cry about a loss

Don't speak about the situation you re in nah like really

I ain't got a big deal but I'm still a big deal

I feel important nah like really

Yeah you got a big deal running on a big

Wheel I ain't with extorting nah like

Yeah I'm independent and I'm making hell of noise

And I'll never let a woman make a helen out of troy

Got no suckers in the circle that pretend to be boys

I don't lend them an extension I just send them decoys

Chilling in the cut is when I'm really feeling voids

'Cause the movements getting muted and it really needs a voice

We're just picking between the evils of the lethals and the liars

People tired and they really need a voice nah like really

This now more than ever though all about force

And measure though nah like really

This that calm collected flow done right

Wrong correctional nah like really

Enough about peace blessings bro

I want that deeper message though nah like really

If you on top that surface

Drop that lesson though preach nah like really

Really
