Automatic
Anakin Lyrics

They might take lead, uh
There are people who may try to take control or take the lead in my life, but it won't affect me.

They might take hold, uh
There may be those who attempt to gain power over me, but they won't succeed.

They can't break me, uh
No matter what challenges or obstacles they throw at me, I won't be broken.

They can't break soul, uh
My inner strength and resilience cannot be shattered or compromised.

They can't break me, nah
Their attempts to break me will not succeed.

They can't break soul, nah
They will not be able to break my inner spirit or determination.

They can't break me, uh
No matter what they do, their efforts to break me will be fruitless.

They like, they like, uh, ayy, huh
These individuals may have their own opinions or judgments, but it doesn't faze me.

Said, do I wan' be rich or do I wan' be free
I question whether I desire material wealth or personal freedom.

Words stuck together like glue in the bottom of my seams
The words I speak are powerful and strongly hold together, like glue securing the foundation of my beliefs and values.

Bottom of my dreams still got this shining little beam of hope
Even in the lowest moments of my aspirations, a small glimmer of hope remains.

One right move done got my motherfucking name afloat
A single wise decision has brought attention and success to my name.

One wrong move could be the last taste of painless tropes
A single mistake could lead to experiencing the consequences and hardships of life.

Meanwhile, we chasing ice, it's bodies piling in the snow
While we strive for material possessions and wealth, there are others suffering and dying around us.

Piling in the cope for every soul that's eating sleep for dinner
The bodies accumulate as a result of the struggles faced by those who can barely afford the basic necessities.

Everyday pragmatic, just compiling what I know
Each day, I am realistic and practical, gathering knowledge and experiences.

Still chasin' dough 'cause it's innate and automatic
I continue to pursue money because it is ingrained in me and happens instinctively.

Tryn' unlearn these facets of oppression that I tote
I am trying to undo and shed the burdens of oppression that I carry.

See getting lessons and accepting them, the only way you grow
In order to grow and develop, one must receive and embrace valuable lessons.

Remember days I wanted to cock a Smith and Wesson, let it blow
There were times when I considered resorting to violence and seeking revenge.

And nonetheless so far I'm a testament of staying afloat
Nevertheless, I have managed to survive and succeed despite the challenges.

I been progressing ever since
I have been continuously moving forward and making progress.

Want the same for all of these folks I share my pigment with
I desire the same progress and opportunities for those who share my racial background.

'Cause end of the day they want us in rope
Ultimately, some individuals want to keep us oppressed and controlled.

And they still got our bodies under the scope
They continue to monitor and scrutinize our existence.

Fuck it, I wish that we was free
Expressing frustration and a strong desire for freedom.

Yeah, I feel the same but I know they'll probably charge me for it
I share the same longing for freedom, but I am aware that there may be consequences for expressing it openly.

We built the pot for these reasons, chopping another forest
We have created a collective force to fight against oppression, causing trouble and disruption.

I need me with a fee, a lock in lil' mama's orbit
I desire financial stability and a committed relationship with a special woman.

She get sloppy, I'm Moses
When she becomes careless or reckless, I take charge and lead like Moses.

She like, 'Get the fuck up off of me'
In moments of frustration or annoyance, she demands space and distance.

I was 'bout to, got comfortable in them house shoes
I was ready to comply, but then I felt comfortable and at ease in my own environment.

Your scent won't leave the couch, boo
The lingering presence of your fragrance remains on the couch.

I, I found a way to change our lives
I have discovered a path to improve and transform our lives.

Break the selfishness, do it all, make it effortless
We must break free from self-centeredness and accomplish everything effortlessly.

Teach my shorty everything I know, that's a prerequisite
I aim to educate my child about everything I have learned, as it is essential.

Pop up with a baby, you ain't even know we was fucking then
To surprise you, I will reveal that we conceived a child without your knowledge.

Niggas really maybe's, keep yeses tucked to the left of him
Some individuals are indecisive and unreliable, while others keep their commitments hidden.

He stocked up, pop the lock stuck, don't get your thot stuffed
He prepared himself, unlocked something, and avoided an unpleasant encounter.

Another mach up, we hold it down for mi casa
Another opportunity arises, and we stand strong for our home and community.

Contribute to the pasta, don't you, go and get locked up
Make a meaningful contribution to the group, and avoid getting into trouble or imprisoned.

They cop it 'cause it's me, not luck, don't get it fucked up
They believe in my abilities and success, not attributing it to mere luck.

It's five hundred degrees in the shade
The situation is incredibly intense and challenging.

Another day in my maze
Every day feels like navigating through a complex, confusing maze.

Ain't no parades, just stressing out 'til I'm paid
There are no celebrations or rewards, just continuous stress until I achieve financial stability.

But what's your life?
However, what is your personal situation and perspective?
