Masks have become common because of The Rona, but what if I told you I've been wearing a mask to keep me safe for a long time? 😷
lyrics
Phone, keys, wallet. Hold up gotta get my mask too
(Why) I'm just being safe if somebody ask you
(I heard it don't work) Who you listening to is trash
I'm protecting you from me just in case I'm feeling bad
Protecting all my folks because it's mostly killing blacks
Projecting all my hope to God that this season won't last
Praying I won't get hit and it all ends in a flash
Missing epidemics that are spreading like a rash
Staying in the crib cause that might just work
Changing how I live cause this life don't work
Mentally doing bids cause it might just hurt
If I step out on a limb and hit right on dirt
That denial going round. People acting real foul
Like "I ain't got it now. It's a affecting me how?
Where my brunch and my smile?" Crap, I gotta leave the pad today.
Get my shoes laced can't leave without my mask. Hey!
Tell me tell me can you see
If I'm being who I am or who you're wanting me to be
Hey!
Tell me tell me can you be
As uncomfortable with this like it's uncomfortable for me
Yeah!
Phone, keys, wallet. Hold up gotta get my mask too
(Why) I'm just being safe if somebody ask you
(I heard it don't work) Who you listening to is trash
It protect me from police just in case they feeling bad
Protecting all my folks because they mostly killing blacks
Projecting all my hope to God that this season won't last
Praying I won't get hit and it all ends in a flash
Prison big business and they spreading like a rash
Staying in the crib cause that might just work
Changing how I live cause this life don't work
Mentally doing bids cause it might just hurt
If they decide that my limbs should hit right on dirt
That denial going round. People acting real foul
Like "That ain't me now. It's a affecting me how?
Where my brunch and my smile?" Crap, I gotta leave the pad today.
Straighten up my face. can't leave without my mask. Hey!
Tell me tell me can you see
If I'm being who I am or who you're wanting me to be
Hey!
Tell me tell me can you be
As uncomfortable with this like it's uncomfortable for me
Yeah!
