Hero Lyrics

We got to be this, we got to be that

The expectations here are holding me back

We are not perfect

Some of us deep down are hurting, lost and forgotten the map

Who can you blame?

Non of us here are the same, but you still want diamond chains

Ever since I was a kid I knew the world was gon no my name

What happened to unity

Don't give a damn about purity

Giving back to the community

Don't know what you been seeing but ain't no difference between you and me

You ain't no better, if you want her go and get her

Cause life is way too short, but is magic no Penn and Teller

Nothing comes easily, nothing comes speedily

I want everybody here treated equally, and if you say that you can't

Imma ask you

"where is your decency?"

Get one more chance, what is your plans (uh)

Cause if you mess up , we might make you lose your dignity

The pressure of depression, got everybody here stressing

Don't care bout who you are texting

As long as you hearing the message

Don't wanna be guessing

Still sitting here counting my blessings

I know it don't feel like it, but I know that I'm really progressing

It's not about chains

It's not about fame

It's not about being apart of the game

It's not about being the best in the entire world

Got to realize that we all the same

God made us equal, got to look after my people

Got to get rid of the evil

A triple 6 on a crucifix ,we ain't living medieval

I got to live in the moment cause I don't know if this gon happen again

I got problems on problems

Don't know how to solve them

The demons dancing in my head

Mama woke up and was wondering why I was singing in the AM

I wake up some mornings, don't wanna be yawning

I know you heard what I said

I wanna ride in a Ferrari, There ain't no harm in dreaming

I'm living for the thrills, you can hear me screaming

Over here chasing my dreams, why are you intervening

As long as I got music

My life has got meaning

My mama been asking me

"My son are you okay?"

I don't wanna look weak so I tell her that I'm all straight

But there's a war zone in my head, I ain't talking about Ukraine

I been focusing on my grind, one day you'll all know my name

You know I'm working for family

I'm just tryna make them proud of me, before I end up as a tragedy

Got to think of a new strategy

Don't want em to be mad at me

I'm trying my best gradually

This ain't just no fantasy, I'm tryna make this a reality

We need a hero?

Nah I think we need each other, ain't talking bout no lover

I'm talking bout our brothers

I'm talkin bout our mothers

Got to keep our hunger, cause I believe no one here should suffer

The last girl that I had just left me heart broken

Now I feel like my chest has been left open

So many different ways that I have been coping

I hope you know what I'm saying with these words that I've spoken
