Joey Bada$$

This for my people, tryna stay alive and just stay peaceful

So hard to survive a world so lethal

Who will take a stand and be our hero, of my people, yeah?

Before the money there was love

But before the money it was tough

Then came the money through a plug

It’s a shame this ain’t enough, yo

This one time, I said, « Lord, would you help? »

Some short time after, see my music on the shelf

So we pray to the Gods, the Jahs and the Allahs

To keep us safe and watch our lives
