Incoming!
We're being quarantined
You and me
Lovers that should never be
It's our disease
They call for Constantine
To pray for me
Father, won't you forgive me
But it's a sin I need
Hello, boys and girls
Welcome to your brand new world
Where everyone is paranoid and concerned
Instant gratification, people losin' they patience
Puttin' value on worthlessness, I cannot work like this
Highly elated, that we gradually made it
Now we all here together whether you like it or not
Dispensaries are essential business and churches are not
You can't gather for God but you can line up for pot
Plus all the liquor stores open, start drinkin' at noon
We can Bobby and Whitney, we can howl at the moon
Wait 'til the big reveal happens and they lower the boom
When they walk in our rooms and they carryin' brooms
All of the drive-thru fast food that you can consume
Ain't no hospital beds open so one could assume
That if somethin' serious happen, let's say havin' a stroke
That you could possibly get a virus while gettin' some help
Remember to social distance, keep your germs to yourself
Even though when we herd together, the immunity works
This is devastating, this gon' leave communities hurt
But we celebratin' because we makin' heaven on Earth
We're being quarantined
You and me
Lovers that should never be
It's our disease
They call for Constantine
To pray for me
Father, won't you forgive me
But it's a sin I need
Build us up then they tear us down, wear us down
We had enough, we need fairness now, stare 'em down
Look 'em in the eye, stand up for your rights
Be the reason that change happens, be the light
I hope you see it right, life, it ain't a fair fight
We wanna make it past tomorrow on my last life
But this ain't a game, man, it's such a fuckin' shame
You would hide away, ignore the pain and let it be the same
Point your finger, place the blame on another's name
They endure the stain, you're in a cycle, break the chain
Talk is cheap, where's the action at? Homie, caption that
Try to factor that in, listen after that
Find your heart, no pulse attached, it's a fact
Talkin' loud, doin' nothin', wearin' rally caps in the back
Chasin' dreams, you live a nightmare
They don't fight fair but I'm right here, fightin' all my life, yeah
Where you standin' in? Who the fuck you with?
Life's a gift, when it's a wrap they drop you in the 6
Freedom cost a lot, deep pockets talk a lot
Burnin' down the block, gathered in the parkin' lot
We're being quarantined
You and me
Lovers that should never be
It's our disease
They call for Constantine
To pray for me
Father, won't you forgive me
But it's a sin I need
Got turned away at the 7-Eleven for no mask
The clerk wouldn't even take my cash, I wanna kick his ass
Damn, my homie down bad
System shut down like a 2020 grad
Vaccines startin' to sound like money grabs
Freeway, Rick Ross, Alpo and Money Bags
Ain't no club, bitch, ain't no poppin' no tags
Ain't no love, shit, that's a thing of the past
If this my death date, I'm dyin' with class
Work ethic, morals and money with no dad
So sad, I see a dead city from my pad
Under the underpass, we just gotta do the math
If I ain't got shit and you ain't got shit
If we ain't got shit, then where's the profits?
Watchin' the news is obnoxious, it makes me nauseous
They keep sayin' these losses all part of the process
Overheard my neighbor coughin', it made me cautious
Raisin' babies on his own, I know that nigga's exhausted
If it's ever mandatory and my health caves in
I hope my neighbor don't turn me in, you feel?
We're being quarantined
You and me
Lovers that should never be
It's our disease
They call for Constantine
To pray for me
Father, won't you forgive me
But it's a sin I need
