Crosses
Said I'm a stranger in my land
Spitting on a helping hand
And I'm out here making waves but I built my house on sand
You built your house on slaughter
Spread the blackness through my veins
Rip your claws right through my alter, growing stronger on my pain
Can I ever be the same?
Will I ever feel the summer?
And I watch you through the window whisper sweetness to my brothers
Tryna drag them through the mist
On my neck the Devil kissed
You ain't won, you ain't won
I can't take it

And I've been feeling so lone
Although you're holding on me
I've been awake for so long yeah
Won't someonе help me to sleep

And evеrybody's got a cross to bear
My father's sins are not a part of me
And everybody's got a cross to bear
My father's sins are not a part of me

I been so sick of the bullshit
Tempted to throw up the deuces
Walls have been grey despite all of the claims of the times that we had in my music
I don't feel represented, my pleas to the masses have always been white noise
Say that I was heaven-sent but perks of God's children been handed to white boys, acting viceroy
I'll check your mate like a wise choice
Past is checkered checkered checkered checkered, black and whities they coming for thyroids
And they throw shade, shade, shade rooms but petals rain on laid tombs
Seen brains slain just for views
Okay kay, KKK coons
I've been looking for the bright side but my blinds down and my sights blind
Paving a way for the like-mind, if I can't steer then I'll just grind
Fight time, buy time
Dylan, Dylan, Dylan, I'm the best till I die alone
Put it in text on the tombstone
Heaven sent, cross to bear

And everybody's got a cross to bear
My father's sins are not a part of me
And everybody's got a cross to bear
My father's sins are not a part of me
And everybody's got a cross to bear
My father's sins are not a part of me
