Oxygen Lyrics - Zion I

There was a time where I used to care what folks think 

Sniffing on my arm hoping that I don't stink 

Your boys are turned to men and men turned to savages 

I call it for you statistics and averages 

And so we grow up with these hopes and dreams 

Like the world getting labeling us as dope and fiends 

We want a life of fine ass wife 

And a house where the kids play can play without strife 

But all we get is the same ol shit 

Kind of pissed our tips is where the rich gets richer 

And we sip the liquor homie split the swisher 

Tryna buy stock options and switch the picture 

But I'im all out of focus mayne its hard to cope 

Gimme a rope just to wrap my throat 

And we don't vote not that I don't believe the system 

But our answer to gleff is our right man listen

I need oxygen 

Gimme air let me breathe again 

X4 

Ay, can't take for granted what we never really had 

A nice thicket fence for the mom and dad 

And it makes me mad When I look in the eye 

Of the children and the night I hear their souls cry 

As eye burst eye and it test the wills 

The IRS comin by and collectin bills 

Im' so blessed with the fire it gives me chills 

In a country so cold cause shes set to still 

My movement smooth and infused with the realest 

Shackled and chained yall cant kill us 

Tackle my brain harassing my fellas 

Gaffle me up and tag me a villain 

Im still chillin yall cant stop the strut out 

Im black man tucked in my hide out 

You cant come in unless you summon 

I call all my people that's runnin for hills for skrill 

When we chase dolla bills still it's a ill lifestyle for real 

Feel like killa be killed tryna to eat a meal 

The government like to steal 

We got a bum deal

Hey 

Ima be chookin in this state were in 

No job or education need a great bm 

Kids walking up to school cutting late again 

Block huggin wanna thug get them papers in 

Closeminded in a world that we stationed in 

World wide territories in there safe and friends 

Terrorism at a high but it starts within 

Livin wild getting vile but its hard to win 

But we cant get united we all competent 

And I'm breathing in this beat like its oxygen
