Impose
[Verse 1]
Next question, man, why you out here working?
Middle of summer time, Long Beach, might as well go kite surfing
Jameson and ginger ale, came in with intent to kill
Dissing more, dismiss it as this coping mechanism, right
Man it’s single origin Yirgacheffe better that than Percocet
But a coarse is a grind, 'cause mine is more or less a porlex
Ooh, I ain't the safe one, I ain't the fake-the-faith one
I ain't the one to hold my tongue when this opposition comes
But I be working on my patience, though, holidays and weekends
Attitude adjustments, I just need a little tweaking, uh
Leaving my last season, with reason to believe that we can
Keep truth speaking, if I can control my tweeting
I know I ain't the only, that's normally straight from me
Notice me quoting these holy scriptures like you know me
But I grown a little since “Dig”, He is my hope, boy
Don't hold me accountable, hold me close, I'm saying

[Chorus]
I don't wanna impose
I ain't trying to tell you what you already know
When you're done blowing out the light in your soul
Only thing left is darkness, darkness
I don't wanna impose
I ain't trying to tell you what you already know
When you're done blowing out the light in your soul
Only thing left is darkness, darkness
[Verse 2]
You gotta keep marching, man, stand for your kin
Even though sometimes bullies do win
And even though cheaters do prosper
And a squeaky wheel turns the tide
And these waves of change, they come crashing, for sure
Lord, help us, we drowning in these seas of benefits
Equality's oppression if all you know is privilege, boy
Power by definition suppresses another mission
Y'all only on top from taking somebody's spot, listen
Man with no stones thrown, I'll be holding these inhibitions
And watching this new POTUS prove right my premonitions
But at the base of my message, it's stand upright and threatless
And pluck the deepest part of y'all's heartstrings, bless

[Chorus]
I don't wanna impose
I ain't trying to tell you what you already know
When you're done blowing out the light in your soul
Only thing left is darkness, darkness
I don't wanna impose
I ain't trying to tell you what you already know
When you're done blowing out the light in your soul
Only thing left is darkness, darkness

[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
