You
tell
the young they can never become what they aspire to
Born in a cell with no one
who can inspire you
Your highs are never as high
as those who lie to you
Pretending that they live in the sky
lying behind your roof
Shooting holes up at your ceiling
Trying to find the proof trying
to fight the feeling
The truth tied up like the noose
they been concealing
Dipped it in diamonds so
that you find it appealing
Time for dealing despite y'all dealing
we are the savages
The natives who fight the ap
peal of all your lavishness
The brave who find what is
real and call it as it is
cnd use our mind and will to es
cape the laws of averages
To be rich and broke or to
be broke and rich
You see it all gets flipped by those
who've mastered this
Who give a whole new meaning to
what gymnastics is
Jumping over the walls on old mattresses
The savage
We are the savages
Who told you poverty made criminals
c self- fulfilling prophecy
they drill in you
Think of all who made it with
their options at a minimal
It takes being creative when they say
the block will limit you
The savages the raw talent
of those who have to live
Outside the comforts of the
norm where the challenges
Form the outliers and the culture
that'll clash with them
Who own they own style cus they can't
afford the fashion trends
The mantra the savage mind
will not be conquered
The contra- diction you find
inside the monster
With a canon that you can't
fire without an author
Like a phantom that you can't
drive outside the opera
When you can't stand up for your
goal they gonna stop ya
When a man stand up than it's
gold you got an oscar
What they're afraid of later
they will applaud for
When that which you are made
of later becomes an art form
The savage
We are the savages
