Aqueous Transmission

de Teyana Taylor

If you ask me, since Harlem
Our family's always been like, it's been the best of times
It was the worst of time (worst)
I needed a sign
2008, my mother passes away (Aunt B)
I'm at rock bottom, Dave's with me through my mother's situation (yeah, I was)
But he's still playing basketball, he's doing his thing (yeah, I was)
Two years later he gives me a call, he's hit rock bottom (yeah, I did)
He's getting kicked out of school
He has another dream, to rap
He tells me he needs to come back to New York
And if he has this opportunity, he's gonna make it
I knew I was already struggling
I didn't even want him to come back and be in the streets
I don't want him to get in to any bullshit
We didn't really have much, you know what I mean?
We were just together, all we had was each other and his dream
I look back now
I think the sixty
That front door (penthouse)
Right by the staircase, perfect place
That back room I grew up in
He's been such and inspiration to so many
People see the grind and the pain and the struggle he's going through (right)
That we've been through (right)
But this is for everybody out there (yeah, it is)
Look and think, and dream and, everybody needs a sign (yeah, they do)

Sometimes you can't see it yourself
Need sign, you need, need some help

We know we guilty but we gon' act like we innocent (on God)
My Glock was filthy, need disinfectant to get it in
My grandpops was an immigrant, never a citizen
They expect me to vote, told my mother, I needed Ritalin
Was born crazy, I never felt like I was normal (never)
The Sun shine bright after it rain, that's what the storm do
Roll a blunt and wish I could trade places with Freeky (Malik)
Until I sit and realize my daughter really need me
I had to cut ties with my closest, niggas is greedy
You can see the pain in my eyes as soon as you see me
Aladdin had me tryna make wishes, wasn't no genies
Halal if I was talkin' 'bout lambs, no Lamborghinis
We was really starvin', in my aunty crib hearin' Marvin
Had to travel the world to realize nowhere like Harlem
I tried to keep my distance from niggas that's scared of problems
Them niggas realize you food, then anywhere they'll rob her
You ever tuck in your jewelry then you don't need to shine
All the money in the world won't bring you peace of mind
All them chains don't matter, they hate to see you shine
Was lost, prayin' to God begging him like: I need a sign
Show me how to do it when ain't nothin' working
