to each his own correct then don't select my flavor

while see them in the back critiquin' my behavior

tryin' to take create n' shape me to fit his mold

yellin' out sellout but maybe he wasn't told

so let me tell his shallow mind why we do what we do

I create for the creator but not to impress you

I'll challenge your thinkin' but not to test you

you might not like me, I'll still say God bless you

and address the issue it's all love n' respect

and honestly bro I don't think that 's too much to expect

but too many times your shallow mind will keep you caught

you can't escape your thinkin' all you've ever been taught

is that you walk this way

you talk this way

you front this way

you pose this way

you act this way

na, na that ain't me

I got to be who God created me to be



semichorus:do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock



why is it as humans we cling on to only what we've known

never expanding and stepping out our comfort zone

we walk alone and then roam in ignorance

then turn back around and use it as a defense

for shallowness this seems to be a concern

cuz not knowin' is an excuse for those unwillin' to learn



chorus:do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock

original material my crew nonstop

we're keepin' it fly will turn it out

ya'll feel this on that? no doubt!



do not stereotype the individual

cuz what you hear in your stereo is not the typical

stereoypes get broken when I'm provokin'

new levels of thought that will leave your shallow mind open

cats approachin' me without lack or clue

I understand though bro, see someone's been training you

to think like you think and act like you do

its' getting old not like it should have ever been new

but as long as shallowness exists I shall persist

to rip apart the whole structure and expose the nucleus

as long as shallowness exists I shall persist to rip

apart the whole structure and expose it for what it is



lack of understanding lack of communication

lack of a desire for expanding education

lack of inspiration lack of innovation

the fact you can't respect another mans creaiton

lack of motiviation lack of restoration

the fact we lack unity and enjoy separation

lack of destination because you know what I feel

I feel that humans lack the ability to be real
