[Verse 1: Sam Brown] When we fall from the clouds They call it the Black Rain Thirty three years they waited to see the change Seeds were given, planted and maintained From the ways of the world, only a few will remain Darkness will fall Only a few will see light The few with the knowledge will always shine bright Follow our lead and understand the truth If you stand hand in hand They’ll see We just as You What we planted in man has to remain true So you can understand what it is we came to do Change the master plan and plant seeds in the youth So they can see what I see by the age of twenty two

[Verse 1] (Yeah) Under night we trust See the light in us Perfect in dirty mind Reason to write the stuff Passion inside the little avenue we call a life Purpose to find another task and hardly do it right The seed bearers of the trees keep the season When we see it we believe there’s a reason The downtrodden be the meek, we esteem it A world where the screens talk Tryna find a scheme in The peace speaking we could dream in But the world is “Pop this” ’til we wet enough to stream in The chest soaking and we freezing But it’s “Fuck you” long as they let we in Just divide in our culture Water, oil—I cannot approach you Got the spoils You at my disposure Been a longer coming If at my disclosure Pop the latch, let the sky open And spell hope in Peace [Hook 1] The sun go high with me We touch the sky and fly all day It might go home with me We going high We call that altitude The sun go high with me We touch the sky and fly all day It might go home with me We going high We call that altitude [Verse 2] (Yeah The birth of the seed First of the lead Church in the mouth, curse in the feed Thirst-seeking cause the drive is so insatiable A baby born to be a victor in a realm of seeds A mother scared of his escape who tore a veil in two A father absent in the home who split his bail in half And told his yout to put in stakes but not mistake in you The aura true, don’t take a fall to be a different leaf We see another world He sought a different life under an added pressure To see a different pearl We seen a vision curl under a different light Focused the mission effort Seen ‘em dismiss the world The block is hot They caught a body just the week before Some White Girl in our world had the scene at war The fight slight in our sight But we seen before, the light Let the sky open ‘fore you squeeze the 4

[Part 1: “Decatur 2031”] [Verse 1: Louis.] Broken homes to piece your poems back together in Money flows through rock You witness that and sell a friend Circles round the block to down the clock From six years old Auntie itching out and shifting ‘bout Your next of kin Cousins gripped the stick You watched it from the seat beside him Air condition blew He blew too when he squeezed the iron Mirror late at night, you knew too Think “the beast that I am” Skate from 85 to Flatter Shoals The streets is flying Who consoles the youth who took a turn? Infatuation Grabbed his bat for practice, cracked it Heard the pastor waiting Laughed in action, masked in black And blasted back with Satan Rolled the Wood and passed it back in Where the actors play in Just a lamb who lost his light somewhere in laying down Stuck inside the myth to be the king you take the crown Stuck inside the spliff You see the dream and break it down Stuck inside the drip You seem the dream It’s fading out [Hook 1: Louis.] Viewing mountains We been up, aw yeah, and Lou been counting in the cut Whole hand and You been bouncing in the truck Whole head and peace You on vibration (You on vibration) It’s what you make it Tell ‘em Viewing mountains We been up, aw yeah, and Lou been counting in the cut Whole hand and You been bouncing in the truck Whole head and peace You on vibration (You on vibration) It’s what you make it Tell ‘em [Verse 2: Louis.] Sometimes to find your peace you gotta find yourself Sometimes you own supply just to be fly yourself My mind been ride or die How I define my health A stepping stone And times I might get high myself Speaking visions of private outings Me and my conglo detect dreams And we see private island The common thread not what it seams Just know my mind providing I don’t have lack of pride My thoughts be more on Tesla stream of consciousness So oddly got Back wall of the party frequently Still she peeping me My dawg say she be on that frequency And we speak decently Just commas and common sense Rottweilers inside the fence My pops came up from common living Red powder inside his kicks I been bucking for all them Move product, supply the job Who working too often?

[Hook 1: Louis.] Just like a desert at night I feel the pressure under star fall Heat rising, wind biting when the night calls me Life is insighting in the right pause Take the wrong turn, measure don’t stop It’s like a desert at night I feel the pressure under star fall Heat rising, wind biting when the night calls me Life is insighting in the right pause Take the wrong turn, measure don’t stop It’s like a desert at night [Verse 1: Louis.] I feel a pressure under star fall Seen an addict in a panic hit a slight pause Put a knife inside his palm, insight a slight brawl And leave a body in the wake and aim to drop more Maybe a vision from a soul inside a place of desolation Grown to be a sole provider Blew into the desperation gold like Ore Ida Just some inspiration Born inside a flow in spite of his environment The life I put inside the fire spit reveal our wiring Tiring from the entry point ’til our retirement By design Say you feeling fine? Is not what they require A and I? Altitude inconsequential, they desire My people got a lot of weight to get up off they chest Visions of seeds that never sprouted We believe in best Weighing the options in the scene before we squeeze The vest get put on few and far between Before we sleep, the rest Yeah [Hook 1: Louis.] Just like a desert at night I feel the pressure under star fall Heat rising, wind biting when the night calls me Life is insighting in the right pause Take the wrong turn, measure don’t stop It’s like a desert at night I feel the pressure under star fall Heat rising, wind biting when the night calls me Life is insighting in the right pause Take the wrong turn, measure don’t stop It’s like a desert at night [Verse 2: Louis.] Separate destinations met with shame To help you find your way Pressed and shaken Paper bags with powdered wings to find your plate Heavy-handed smoking out the window Roll the ounce and skate Deep depressions Running from those lights that help you drive your lane Disappearance like magician touches Living off a hunch to make excuses For the discipline you couldn’t plug in Separate colored stones that drew attention Like a fish to function Open mouths and hands that want commands But can’t commit to nothing Sometimes the heat so thick It’s bound to be another body Sometimes your anger meets remorse On other sides of shottys Sometimes you couldn’t shoulder weight So you just found a hobby Empty hands onside of empty plans What made him shot the party He blew the prints because of fickle touches You flipped a nick at night And draw a wider scene for CREAM and pictured lunches You built the grandeur ’til impasto couldn’t fit the frame Broke it all Said His name in vain, it’s like [Hook 1: Louis.] Just like a desert at night I feel the pressure under star fall Heat rising, wind biting when the night calls me Life is insighting in the right pause Take the wrong turn, measure don’t stop It’s like a desert at night I feel the pressure under star fall Heat rising, wind biting when the night calls me Life is insighting in the right pause Take the wrong turn, measure don’t stop It’s like a desert at night

[Hook 1: Louis.] My people got to see the dream Put test in our ability to breed the cream Was stranded on the roadside Now we Black Star whipping like a match-car driven That’s that My people got to be the dream Put trust in our ability to see the scene Was stranded when the boat tied Now we Black Star driven ’til the black bar risen That’s facts [Verse 1: Louis.] Told the soul to hold composure in a harder time Move it slow across the glass to blow a harder line Put a code across the stash to make it hard to find Put a life inside my eyes to make me open mine Just a baby born a savant Stacking ass kin to stacking ads Keep an option in the tuck ’til you deliver right I seen them finish in the middle, right So the seed was never planted And the failure could diminish might My partner lost a lot of locks to be a Samson I often toss sometimes at night because I can’t run A Marcus Garvey in a worker body Fashioned to dress in suit and tie A suit of club for action I seen it different And the difference I was trippin’ on The Jordan moment needed Pippen just to get along We under pressure But a pressure stone to wish upon Diamonds in it Harder than the throne you wish to sit upon [Hook 1: Louis.] My people got to see the dream Put test in our ability to breed the cream Was stranded on the roadside Now we Black Star whipping like a match-car driven That’s that My people got to be the dream Put trust in our ability to see the scene Was stranded when the boat tied Now we Black Star driven ’til the black bar risen That’s facts [Verse 2: Median] Life is a rhythm I was smitten by the beat Started leaking Leaking out relief from my noggin It landed on my garment Describing it as peacocking But for the audio, surprising A glimpse from the ear? Has the effect of butterflies The air from their wings makes a ripple in time Chain reaction In due time, it can change the tides to tsunamis Actively splashing coastlines Taking ‘em back again to new beginnings Thru the cleansing As life laughs at your plans with no pity Hiding whole cities like Atlantis No closed caption Those that can’t ride the beat can’t eat No privacy To hear life’s rhythm’ll give you no sleep Figuratively, staying woke and daydreaming [Hook 1: Louis.] My people got to see the dream Put test in our ability to breed the cream Was stranded on the roadside Now we Black Star whipping like a match-car driven That’s that My people got to be the dream Put trust in our ability to see the scene Was stranded when the boat tied Now we Black Star driven ’til the black bar risen That’s facts

[Verse 1] Better the wind take me than the stress I feel the pressure from God inside of my chest Running from effort ‘Lest I get caught inside of the underground I had desires of Richard and Millie Getting rich in the field Gluttony Stuffing faces with company A handkerchief in the pocketing type With a yard and a public servant to sod it at night And a safe in the upper edge of my echelon home Where she powder the table Look at herself through her nose We the wind in the robe A daily service I shedded for a glimpse of the gold I see the morgue as a failure for my interest to grow Some minutes not short as a minute Time is flesh You absent-minded? You might bust ‘fore you finish They compromised a secret line Wrote the oddity given Just a touch Tell you once and let your mind be the prison Do it wrong ’til I’m bigger than Hov The Black Album for black-outting whipping the Rolls The Magna Carta for a plastic sparker Ravens in the field looking for a mass to a scarf A meal just to make us comfortable We been prepared and out of Lunchable Something of a hunch when you see that and want to touch And yo, she all for it A mass of bodies for a massive probably A mass debasement if the ass is godly Ribs to cast the body Sometimes I want to do nothing Times I want to feel nothing but pride and call for it ’Til bigger than all yours A journey now outside a master’s home If love is hate I guess we all clones Just glasses of tall foam [Car speeding and crash]

[Hook] Try, try You keep on searching And you get a little further [Verse 1: Louis.] A confrontation with a holy one Battered body in the projects, we the only ones Look across the void, a vision of me Too many places of discomfort See you steal from me I built an idol out of eye and I The gold calf who made the iron fly Who saw the mass but couldn’t see himself to right the lie It’s strange The gift you get could let you open holes (Unh) Defeat your deeper, let you open souls To see the overarch and understand Took over art and put us under man In barracoons inside a stolen land A loaded clip inside a broken hand A broken gate inside the snow to see you grow again Hold it and Try [Hook] Try, try You keep on searching (We keep on) And you get a little further (Get a little further) (Get a little) [Verse 2] To join the motive, move the skin and get it out the way Spread the message Take the tale and move it out the face Steps that brought you closer to me after all Felt like moving in the opposite and out the race You are pornographic, gambling The news to make us cowl in fear The sum of souls who looked for truth And never found it here The easy choice you took To lose your progress after all The look in the mirrors tell the truth To make you mount the tears Anaphora in nature tried to tell you twice or more The signs they make that favor you Are not accounted for The light before you is the kind You can’t afford to see Pursuits in that should always feel Like they’ll be out of reach Try [Hook] Try, try You keep on searching (We keep on) And you get a little further (Get a little further) (Get a little) [Instrumental Interlude: Tyrek Hearon Guitar Solo] [Outro: Louis.] [Non-lyrical vocals]
