Moment
LEO37 SOSS Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look at this mess we've made
Everybody lookin at us like we lost our way
Never gave fucks bout a thing we had to say
Up against that knife we all bleed the same
So forgive me while I speak this pain
Cause we out here trying to make a change
Everyone out here trying to play this game
Got my people acting real strange
What's the basis?
Got our babies acting shameless
There's a war outside.
No one down to ride
Spreading lies just to be famous
And we give praises
To'em fuccboi's actin basic
They used to push
Now they actin puss
I don't recognize these faces
We know where you came from
We all know where you came from
Muh'fucka keep it A-1
What happened to your day ones?
the fuck you keep your day ones?
Watch for when your day comes

They don't really care about us
They don't really care about us
Spit this til my people get a cut
They don't really care about us

Man, fuck the airwaves
They never wanna give my folk no fuckin airplay
Keep us down in the corner all locked inside of their cage
I dare you to give me a spot up on that mainstage
Watch what takes place
Watch me save face
Watch me save grace
You got my folk out here acting like they're jokes
Trying to be something they ain't ever been
Just to sniff up off your smoke
Much love to Eddie Huang
Muthafuck fresh off the boat

Tell all these Uncle Chan's better not hear 'chink' come out their throats
But keep watch as this chink come after throats
Couldn't care less if they ever play this
Everyone cool keeping us as nameless
But check my paces
Never ever sat back and chilled
Wanna do biz, It goes 5050
Man fuck a 360 deal

We're gonna be alright
It's gonna be ok baby
We're gonna be alright
It's gonna be ok baby
Look at the blue skies
Then you'll realize maybe




We're gonna be alright
It's gonna be ok baby
