Can I Feel This Way

Man this is god's poetry, vibe and roll with me, rocking all on this beat

I used to complain about not having shoes, until I seen a man with no feet

Now I feel rich

Money don't make me who I am I never looked down on someone that need a lift

Kindness is a gift

Kinda can smell success, I'm just, I'm just trying to get a whiff

You could say that I'm glad that I had me a childhood (why's that?)

Cause now I'm living out my dreams

Nowadays kids not even living they life, they just staring in they iPhone screens

By any means necessary

Rhyming all that's left in you

Better love the ones next to you

I see a lot of young niggas looking for a sex symbol

Technology is taking over

Feed off these real vibes as you make it older

Young soldier, we all gotta grow

And when you think that you got life figured all out, you realize how much you don't know

Look, after Moms threw me out on the curb

Back when the vibes was louder than words

Yo, I told myself I was gon' get it and god is my witness

My focus was how to be heard

Now I'm here, I see the smiles and tears

I hope this live for a thousand years (it will)

True leaders create more leaders, so tell them haters they ain't never gonna be allowed in here

Cause we characterize (we characterize)

People by actions I see when I stare in your eyes

Forever surprised (why?)

See, everything better whenever I'm high

Break it down

[Hook x2:]

I wanna let out all my frustrations

But I ask myself can I feel this way

Ay, ay, ay, ay (ay, ay, ay)

Can I feel this way?

Is it wrong that I feel this way?

Can I feel this way?

Because

Look, I don't know y'all trying to be

I'm creating my dynasty

Inspire these kids every time I speak (yo!)

I guess they believing us

Like Martin when they tried to black out the black folks and white America mistreated us

My momma said "too bad they needed us"

It's only one race and that's the human race

So that's what I plan to teach my kids

Respond to these fools with silence

As I'm giving y'all the growing process

You can tell me what's next

I ain't heard nothing like it

(how you gon' remember me?)

From living in positive energy without ever having a doubt?

Or praying for my enemies, [?] by the hate

Cause I ain't never take the easy way out

Still I pray

Can I feel this way, Lord tell me can I feel this way

Real man always trying to make a play, just a thought

Got me working at my craft every day

[?]

W-w-w-wake up, get right, look in the mirror and I hope you see yourself

I honestly don't want you to be like me

I wanna, inspire you to go and be yourself

We call that love and awareness

The shit that you get for free but don't cherish

Y-you have a beautiful soul, it's no reason to be so embarassed

Cause we just gon' characterize

These people by actions I see when I stare in your eyes

Forever surprised

See, everything better whenever I'm high

And right now
