Same by Chamber Of Mekhi

mama used to say “you can’t be lying on me”
i take my time now when i write so that my thoughts can feel linked
i ain’t seen my therapist in about eight weeks
so when i get back in the chair i’m gonna feel relief
this is a pulsing drum beat for all the niggas i see
this world don’t give a fuck about the people looking like me
but when the chorus comes in everybody can sing
we don’t need no more restrictions when the world is ending
it’s all the same

it’s all the same
the world’s ending

could i show you all the things that i write when i sink?
when my mind’s not properly connecting thoughts when i think?
hit the blizzy you just rolled
thoughts together up in smoke
when i shut down all emotion yet i’m kept on the brink
let’s face facts babe, a lot of us are going to hell
we hold our tummies when we’re feeling funny
hope all is well
both our hearts together stuck
feel the eyes when people look
they’re looking for something to chastise cuz they know their life sucks

and so the time was embarrassed
you had a heart drawn on a wristwatch and your word wasn’t legible
you said “give me those emotions big as ozone’s hole
before the collapse of this ecosystem
give me control”

as i ponder all the things that i’ve ever said
as i ponder why police rather have us dead
they will lock you in the cage just for their own business
being young at home watching the wiggles
the shits and giggles

and all the distant fallen souls now
will find a new place to call home now
won’t be getting caught again and again and again
no, no
it’s all the same
it’s not so tame
