[Verse 1]
Tell of pestilence and no pessimism
How you downin' when records could get you recognition?
The differences between a handout and having assistance
That’s night and day, it's safe to say that this is tunnel vision
My uncle pissin' dirty, he thirty, ask me for urine
Ayy, dude, you dirty, like Eddy Curry, ask for forgiveness
So I can’t blame any day that we tried to cheat the system
If it ain't far as the first place, the fuck is we gon' win in?
Potential bias and potential wires
Politic with the tooly, they keep a wrench and pliers
Put you in a private land and got your name engraved
Or get locked up, released on bond with bread, yo, am I saved?
[Chorus: Saba & Cisco Swank]
'Cause it's so insane
Nothing's changed
Watch it fade away (Oh)
Yeah
[Verse 2: Cisco Swank]
Like Golden State, I could see the future, my draft included
The stock rising for music with deeper meanings to it
The infrastructure, the city broke, you can see the sewage
Chic like Bo Peep, lowkey, keep reclusive
City overheated like the engine needed cooling
This is antifreeze
Like a vanity, we see it for what it is
Hop a banister, the teenagers bust your lips simply for the fuck of it
Potential bangers and preemptive danger
Pent-up aggression, your death is proof that some children gangster
They partition parts in the metropolis you live in
And got the kids in the park pondering what a rim is
[Chorus: Saba]
'Cause it's so insane
Nothing’s changed
Watch it fade away (Fade away, fade away, fade away)
’Cause it's so insane
Nothing’s changed
Watch it fade away
