THE TORCH Songtext

THE TORCH Songtext
It′s not easy, it takes courage and strength
To break free from the cycle of heartbreak and pain
We need to find a way to rise above, pass the torch
Rise above and pass the torch
Rise above and pass the torch
They say hate is a cycle that will never end
Generations full of pain that we just pretend
To ignore, to imagine that it don't exist
But it′s there in every beat of our heart and fists
Evil is a force that we can't ignore
It's like a virus that infects us to the core
We need to fight it, we need to break free
From the chains of hate and misery, check your history but
It′s not easy, it takes courage and strength
To break free from the cycle of heartbreak and pain
We need to find a way to rise above, pass the torch
Rise above and pass the torch
Rise above and pass the torch
In this world full of major pain, we need Damon Wayans
Know it′s hard to become the change
When evil seems to reign
Every cycle has a genesis, you're witnessing one
From a tree of great artists and they passed the baton
They gave me freedom, now I pass it out like Kaepernick picks
Feel like Pharrell, I give them keys and they go flip it for bricks
But how the nigga in the loafers talking street shit
Although I may not look it, I was born from it, I′ve seen shit
These niggas talk about in all their raps when they ain't seen shit
That′s not even a flex, I just grew up like a seamstress
'Cause I sew these words from all the hurt together seamless
Not even your religion could relieve, don′t bother Jesus
I don't believe in God, believe a higher power is at hand
I don't believe in a book of fables, don′t believe a magic man
I believe the energy you′re putting out is what you see
I do agree sometimes people get what they don't need to see
I know sometimes you can be very loyal to a creep
Give them everything, and somehow they still go out to cheat
I know sometimes infidelity ain′t only in the sheets
I know sometimes that our government be fronting for a piece
I know most times we fight wars all for the greed
Killing family down, condolence to all the deceased
Even social media cost some dignity leased
I ain't a priest, I ain′t no preacher, I'm awful at speech
I just want to get my family one place to call home
I′m the product of two Gs, so I'm trapping off my phone
I don't even want the throne, ′cause I know when it′s said and done
I'ma be the one they call the G.O.A.T, check my horns nigga
Break the cycle, make the cycle nigga
To break free from the cycle of heartbreak and pain
We need to find a way to rise above, pass the torch
Rise above and pass the torch
Rise above and pass the torch
They say hate is a cycle that will never end
Generations full of pain that we just pretend
To ignore, to imagine that it don't exist
But it′s there in every beat of our heart and fists
Evil is a force that we can't ignore
It's like a virus that infects us to the core
We need to fight it, we need to break free
From the chains of hate and misery, check your history but
It′s not easy, it takes courage and strength
To break free from the cycle of heartbreak and pain
We need to find a way to rise above, pass the torch
Rise above and pass the torch
Rise above and pass the torch
In this world full of major pain, we need Damon Wayans
Know it′s hard to become the change
When evil seems to reign
Every cycle has a genesis, you're witnessing one
