I used to say shit like
All I gotta do is
Stay Black
Pay taxes
And die
What I didn’t know
Is that mantra
Became a spell
A recipe
And a crutch
But fate isn’t up to me
That ain’t shit I gotta do
That’s shit I can’t do nothing about
I memorized the wrong list
And suffered for it nawl see
All I gotta do really
Is Stay Healthy
Pay Attention
And remain free
At least in these areas
Influencing is up to me
