Save Yourself
Don Mykel Lyrics

Save yourself it aint safe here
Take care of yourself because this environment is dangerous

blank stare as i face fear
I am confronted with fear, and it leaves me feeling helpless

fate near/ faith weary
I am uncertain about what lies ahead and my belief is starting to waver

who could i trust/ think clearly and move as i must
I question whom I can rely on, but I must make rational decisions and act accordingly

all my foes were once friends we grew out of touch
The people I consider enemies were once close friends, but we have drifted apart

thin line between love and hate
There is a fine boundary separating affection and animosity

been on this same grind since my brothers age how could i tuck this rage i buck and spray
I have been enduring the same struggles since a young age, and it is difficult to suppress my anger, leading me to act out aggressively

bystanders ducking strays i wish you luck today
Innocent bystanders try to avoid harm as I wish them well in this hazardous situation

survival of the willing/ thoughts chilling
Those who are determined to survive are the ones who succeed, and these thoughts fill me with fear

caught feelings for the killing of my lost villains
I have conflicting emotions about causing harm to those who have wronged me

blood bath baptize me in the red sea of my enemies cleansing of my sins
Engulfed in the violence and revenge against my foes, I seek redemption and forgiveness for my wrongdoings

pendulum gon swing defenses of my kin secured
The course of action will shift, and I will protect my loved ones with unwavering determination

genetics ensure pain/ hand me down flags get more stained
My inherited traits guarantee suffering, and the burdens I carry become more pronounced with each passing generation

never brought shame when war came theres/ honor in losses whatever the cost is
I never felt ashamed during times of conflict as there is honor in facing defeat, regardless of the sacrifices made

paid my dues to the bosses and still get shunned out the office
I fulfilled my responsibilities to those in power, yet I am still rejected and excluded from positions of influence

like fuck these plaques on this wall on my ice cube shit lynch mob ruthless
I disregard the superficial achievements displayed on the wall, channeling the rebellious attitude of Ice Cube and the ruthlessness of a lynch mob

use ya neck tie to tie the noose with
Take your formal attire, specifically the necktie, and create a noose for your own demise

hang your CEO out the front of the label building save the children show this shit on cablevision
Metaphorically condemn the CEO by publicly exposing their wrongdoings and broadcast it for everyone to see, highlighting the importance of protecting the youth

let the kids know we got the power to break the ceilings
Empower young individuals by letting them know that they have the ability to overcome obstacles and challenge societal limitations

question who make you listen hold them accountable to what they spitting
Doubt who influences your choices and demand responsibility for the content they promote

live it/ or dont preach it
Practice what you preach or remain silent

you need more people we don’t believe you
Your claims lack credibility, and we require additional evidence or support

hypocrisy i read thru/ but still i bleed too
I can see through the hypocrisy, yet I also experience pain and vulnerability

cant even trust myself
I struggle to have faith in my own judgment and actions

societal poisons got me paranoid
The toxic influences of society have made me excessively cautious and suspicious

cant differ between hell and help
I find it difficult to distinguish between situations that bring harm and those that offer assistance

ive dealt/ my own hand so I play the cards and pray the odds in my favor
I have taken full responsibility for my choices, now I must rely on luck and hope that things turn out in my favor

God or annihilator to be God is highest labor
The choice between being a divine being or a destroyer requires immense effort and responsibility

the most powerful slave putting cowards in graves
Despite being highly capable, I am bound by the circumstances and forced to eliminate weak individuals

tears flow as you showered you reign
I cry as you dominate and exert control over me

scoured our pain/ in my darkest hour i blame
You exploited our suffering, and in my moments of deepest despair, I hold you accountable

you for the madness you saw the end and knew it was tragic still threw me in that shit
I blame you for subjecting me to the chaos and torment, knowing how it would inevitably end in tragedy

cultivated in death the seed who bloomed through the casket
From the darkest moments of death, I emerged stronger and blossomed into something greater

from the tomb to the palace
I have risen from a place of darkness and struggle to a position of power and prosperity

calices on every finger
My hands bear the scars and calluses of hard work and perseverance

ive been holding on losing grip but im soldier strong
Despite gradually losing control, my resilience remains unwavering like that of a determined soldier

in the midst of where i dont belong/ and it aint safe here
I find myself trapped in a hostile environment where I do not fit in, and it is not a secure place

save yourself it aint safe here
Take care of yourself because this environment is dangerous
