Young vultures burn
Burn bright, burn bright
Young vultures burn
Burn bright, burn bright
Young Vultures burn,
Burn bright burn bright
Feel like I’ve lived a hundred lives
And my tribe is right beside me
We got money on our mind
And we know just where to find it
One for the money
Two for the show
We said it goes, one for the money
Two for the show
Yeah, rebel glow bright downtown
(shed light)
Know I failed so many damn times when you needed me
And sorry cause I let you all down
(at midnight)
And I’m sorry, but I’m workin on something bigger than us
So just trust imma bring it back around when it’s time,
In my prime intertwined with a genuine thirst, for the wisdom
Tryin not to drown in it
Time makes cast away
Found in the midst of the coke
While the shift is uplifting your asses
(come on)
More than a god, merely a passin’
Dyin for sleep but the live-in is keep
When you raisin your frequency up in your set
Chakras shockin like jellyfish tentacles
Oceans apart as I'm clockin my webby
Cops on patrol with Tu Pac in the stereo
Hot box and pass nah, man out of the question
Lookin for a warm show, for a bad bitch
Shadow for a snow bunny hun’ed at the rabbit
Jump right back on the track like magic
Back to the trap so we’re trapped in the madness
None of us were here cause we only got it right
So we incarnate till we surely understand
Some of us are new souls lost in the land
E’rrbody ‘round here is part of the plan
Askin my father what it cost to be a man
He thought about it and drew a blank stare in the west
Sayin, “Son,” like pointed at the palm of my hand
“Livin in the divine light, livin like a dead man.”
Ah, livin like a dead man
Livin like I never wanted piss inside a bedpan
Livin like a fugitive runnin on my hands
Then I dunk the cash and set fire to the trashcan

Boy I said the youth, the youth
The youth is on fire
(the youth, the youth
The youth is on fire)
Boy, I said the youth, the youth
The youth is on fire
We don’t need no water
We some fuckin young vultures
You were like, lost your friends, baiting the sirens
Groundhogs day like you daily reminded
Build up your walls and give thanks to your gods
Really you scared so you hidin behind it
Hidin the sign, always waitn', survivin
Pissin on hydrants and lightin’ the tires
Cast out the cradle and I finally get inside dat
That’s her sire’s a titan,
She aint cash, they go back and rewind it
Rap chick and scratch if it aint legible
Had a couple 40s so i’m pissin from the pedestal
To give you all a better view a‘da crew right behind me
Fourth punk to the blood moon take me
Runnin on fumes never runnin on safety
No stress, coolin like I turned on the AC
G-Force frequency, nigga ass K-C
Small town vulture, raised from a bad C’s
So we got them bad brains, head up in the sky
(head up in the sky, head up in the sky)
Went in on me and tigers, and we never gonna die
(no, never gonna die, no, never gonna die)
If you never try to jump, then how you ever gonna fly
(how you ever gonna fly, how you ever gonna fly)
So fuck that, nigga I’m a never wonder
Why your boy never fuckin tried that
Hit the damn spot now the beat about to climax
Be a fuckin lier if ya ever said i wasn’t ready yet
Better yet a nigga started to get a little sidetracked
(sidetracked)
So i break down some kush for the morning
I just need a bi-po whos thick and she know it
Who can stick to the rolly
Smoke in place with the moment, college degree
Hopped out the hood like a phoenix
Baby hotter than me
