In the Air

That's where you niggas got it fucked up and twisted

They ain't scared about just a regular black man in America, yeah, they fear that nigga too

But they fear the independent man

They fear the nigga who goes out and gets his

They fear the nigga who goes out and says "I ain't taking no for an answer"

They fear the man that says "I'ma do it, I'ma make the corporation"

They fear the man that thinks above the employee position

They fear the man that wants to be a boss

They fear the black man in America who's accomplished

When you step outside, when you're in that Benz, when you're in that Bentley

And you shine and you got your ice and your jewelry on

They fear you, nigga

Niggas gotta be stupid to not see what's going on out here

They tryna black out every single successful black man in America

If being black is being culture, then what's the cancel culture?

Sound like some white shit them niggas planted on us

The cops killing only heroes on the cam recorders

When major corporations rambling 'bout niggas on Twitter

When all they did is put BLM in they handles for us

Open your eyes, they ain't standing for us

It's 2020, been a year, God planning it for us

A lot of things he got planned for us

I'm in the ring like Rocky

I got a shot type Aki, when them Steeler's score

What's everybody in they feelings for?

It's 'cause I'm aiming at the ceiling floor

Still popping on these niggas, waiting while they slither

When I'm coming, they can feel it more

The blogs only want my words just to switch it more

What do you do when the court lawyers is telling you not to talk, and as soon you don't, you playing the villain for it?

You got a lot of feelings still in store

Still hearing stories, that nigga talkin' 'bout Tory is over

I'm God's child, I'm one of his most glorious soldiers

I'm working at the old man's, custodian, quota

I'm Lil' Tory, it's for the stories of overcoming the poorest of situations and coming out glorious from 'em

Niggas taught us to sell dope when you bored in the summer

He was lacking a couple cast, then got caught in the summer

Pulled up on him, they started clapping his dome in the summer, no wonder

That was my dog, I used to fuck with him hard

He pull up to the tour bus with the dogs

He used to tell me I'm a Don and I'm a prince and how I come with the charm

And laughed back and say "Don't fuck with no frogs"

'Lil cuz', you a star

Take me to the back, bust a cigar

Told me rappers stop hustling raw, but I was doubling hard

Next step, cop coming in car and you was always there to bust up a charge

Shit just fucked with me hard

Now it's panning out, news cameras standing out

Wrongfully accused but on the news is what the man about

Even my own friends hands wasn't out

Tell me, what that's all about?

Fame got us falling out

Niggas hated on me, made me grind harder

It's gon' be people that gon' switch when the time's harder

The door's open for a short line of niggas and the figures, it's the time, I ain't tryna make my line longer

I made my mind stronger

I made my heart colder

I work the best when my back was up at the wall for ya

I'm going through some changes, close friends turn to strangers

I'm tryna turn the pages even though there's anger in my heart for ya

Yeah, more important than ever

The snow is falling on my brain in the cold as December

I tell a lie, like yeah, I'm fine, but I'm holding together

I'm back on pace for the race

I'm at a rate where niggas just start blowing this cheddar so damn hard that I part ways

With both of my hoes and had 'em tripping out and going together

For all the ones that know me better, you know I'm fed up

The only way to hold a set up is to know a set up

I don't like to do this, y'all just act like I ain’t human

Please don't listen to the rumors that they try alluding

I've never hit no woman, why the fuck would I just do this?

This be that dark label shit, them niggas tryna do me

I know the secrets and I know the fuckery

And they don't want me to say nothing so they tryna shut— (Uh)

But God the only one in line to judge me

The other side and kind is ugly and they tryna fuck me, yeah

What happened to the times of helping self?

When we dehumanizing celebrities with mental health

Don't know the story, so we made one and upset ourselves

So nowadays I feel the pain from certain niggas I ain't never felt

We just marched in unity about us being brothers

And y'all ain't even hit my side, this how we being brothers?

It's kinda crazy, white folks ain't even said nothing

Only celebs I'm seeing hating are my same color

Get it together, we gotta get it together

My nigga, we blackskin and we gotta live it together

Fuck how you feeling about me, we got a mission together

You gotta listen, 'cause God, he gotta get his endeavor, preach

Tory, you in this situation, not because he's hating

He's using Megan as a vessel and a test of faith and

Even when you at the bottom, it's when he makes his way in

God, thank you for turning me into a demonstration
