Coffee ft. Produced by Mr. Thornton Lyrics

Wake up ina morning smella coffee

Loving yo brown life when it's costly

Fighting the flame

Going against the grain

Endure that pain

Sun shines thru that rain

Damn the block is cold

Use to heat the house with the stove

Momma hit the sto for the groceries with her food stamps

6 kids ina shotgun house like boot camp

Payless shoes i had the zippers on'em

Payless attention to the kicks on'em

And honestly i wouldn't change shit homie

I knew my momma love me from the bottom of her heart

We band together ona dark

Beautiful wife and a sister i give it all up for

Give it all up for my auntie to take her pain away

Give it all up for my momma to see another day

Turn back the hands of time so my granny she can play

What if my pops never tried them drugs

What if my brothers never caught that charges

Tripled at the same time while I'm tryna be a artist

The universe chose this path being so lawless

Wake up ina morning smella coffee

Loving yo brown life when it's costly

Fighting the flame

Going against the grain

Endure that pain

Sun shines thru that rain

It's not hard to believe how they do the black man

My cousin nominated and debated by the judge for three hots and a cot on cell block

Nobody was perfect

Rose ina dark room under the surface

Ppl act ugly just peep behind the curtains

Don't need a gavel I'll never judge a book if it's wrote by a crook

Give it a second look when you lookin at the heart

I can't look at the start

Life's a park depending how you build it

You king author depending how ya wield it

Either you killing

Or either you heal it

One way another exposing your true intentions

Keep it true beautiful ina soul remain on ya soles rock steady when it's slow

Have you ever seen a spirit out the water that glows

Wake up ina morning smella coffee

Loving yo brown life when it's costly

Fighting the flame

Going against the grain

Endure that pain

Sun shines thru that rain

I give thanks to my mother how she raised me

I give thanks to my father how he shaped me

I give thanks to my granny cuz she saved me

Many of times i gave in

My mental caved in

I wasn't scared then

Knocking on the doors of the other side

Come back alive from the grave i rise

Higher than the sky yea cuz sometimes i space

Dammit what it take

To get my family out the way
