Artist: Will-Broad Album: Only Son (S) Song: Only Son Typed by: House of Stone (Guest The Ghost) [Verse 1] I'm in a battle with my inner self Man I admit that I'm in need of help Ain't nobody telling you just how to get rich Chinx was right ain't no books telling you the specifics And I can never be free of my own kind Entrapped in black skin with my own mind And I've been told that there's a country full of greater pastures But with the race of races going on its more like green disasters And I don't wanna fall into the trap Drug dealing while hanging out with a gat And I've never been the type of an automatic But if I got it then it means that I gotta be a savage Or they'll serve me up like radish But this ain't my story This is a story of another son This ain't my glory This is a glory of another one Shout out to the people on the streets I know it's hard like trynna do business with all these beats [Chorus] Only son This is the pressure of an only son The pressure to be great cause I know that I'm the only one This is the pressure of an only son I'm the only one [Verse 2] Look Grandad started the tradition Taking the family out of poverty the mission Put a generation through school Now my father knew the rules If you wanna make it gotta work hard now to prove That it ain't enough I can't be working for another man While his stacking paper I'll be meeting his demands And what he gets to supply enough for you to shine But you can't be a star cause then you'll see that you are blind It's a rough cut making sure that you not refined Show you fake love while they stealing comfort from your behind And you relaxed with your seat on a full recline Until they cut you now you stuck at home doing time And that's another trap Oh, thought the trap was niggas doing thug raps Man this system was built to be trapping all the hood rats And if you looking to be hired you a sacrifice to the cats That's a fact [Chorus] Only son This is the pressure of an only son The pressure to be great cause I know that I'm the only one This is the pressure of an only son I'm the only one [Verse 3] Wake up in the morning then I pray to be great Seeking the guidance and the wisdom to acknowledge what's my fate If it's then I might turn to selling a little dope If the music won't make me rich then I'll sell a little coke Lord forgive me for the sins that are to come To win in this game gotta be dirty like a nun Stealing church wine cause she thinks that this is fun How to stay rich when the system wanna to chew me like I'm gum And I'm never gonna bow to the poverty My first amendment is seeking a whole lot of property And making sure that ain't nobody is on top of me Your position is bottom so don't you think of blocking me So please don't be the first of my lobotomy Imma take out any being that be thinking of stopping me Blessed be my work that I rise a little rapidly Protected be my soul on this quest so I don't lose all of me
