Abt - Ripple Effect Lyrics

I don't do this for no quotes
I do this for my sisters and bro's
I mean, I've been a beacon of hope

I don't do this for no quotes
I do this for my sisters and bro's
I mean, I've been a beacon of hope
Though I'm kinda feeling hopeless
Can't break bread if you ain't one with the toasters
These are stories told by the ones that came before us
Making dirty money with that stainless steel
And they be stainless still
Do anything for the gram, they be caught up in a reel
Bro, addiction is real
Captain Cook got your own kind hooked
Guess it don't matter if we ain't blood like Suge
If we ain't blood like

I took a different rout
Figured education was the only way out
Education is the key although they're changing them locks
Bro, it took three years to get admission of acceptance
Couldn't comprehend it
Bachelors pass, ung'thole kasi
Ingathi ndithatha umhlala phantsi
Kodwa kuyanceda ungancama
I got a degree; matchbox house lit the fire that's inside
Don't let these shacks be your shackles
Tying you down, black child you're meant to sever the ties
Swimming through unchartered shores
We'll never drown like Leonardo
(He didn't drown bro) Pneumonia ain't shit, we've been brought up in the cold bro
Known to sell seashells by the seashore and make more
Said we're known to sell seashells by the seashore and make more
From decapitated households to child-headed homes
Pity that we bought what they sold
Forgetting that they picked on us 'cause we're chosen
So, own it, Black child own it

I'ma be, all I can be whilst chasing dreams
Ain't nothing stopping me
Ain't nothing stopping me
