Take Off
[Intro : Monelo]
I think I'm bout to take off
I think I'm bout to take off
When the going got rough, I made it past the tough
And now I'm so about to take off
And nobody can stop me
And nothing can touch this
I've ma-

[Verse 1 : Monelo]
The sun on my right
The moon on my left
Feet off the ground
I have been found
Three thousand feet up in the sky
Imma fly and reach the other side
Then why do I feel
As if I'm about to... crash

[Bridge 1 : Monelo]
What, why, when?
How could this happen?
What you mean I can't go out
How am I supposed to fly
[Verse 2 : Monelo]
What you mean this year ain't gonna pass?
And we ain't all gonna last?
Y'all acting like it's the apocalypse, stop talking shit
Just wear your mask and relax
Who the disease, who the enemies, who ain't warn us?
Beak of the doctors or beak of thе vultures
Hopefully this'll pass
But it didn't, now its a million
And I couldn't risk ending as anothеr statistic
So I had to lock myself in a white walled cell
I mean hostel, but y'all get the gist fam
So listen
Who could've seen this coming
Whole city looking like the set of Chernobyl
More depressing than the Great depression
Got the middle class begging and the upper class venting
So I went ramadan and stopped munching
Remember the first time I heard fuck the police
That's when I learned Hip-Hop got the power to educate the streets
But thirty years later ain't shit changed
That's what I'm afraid, what if the people never listen for a change
It's deep rooted, it's inhumane, there's always hate
How many wars do y'all need in the name of your faith?
Almost when atheist, done asking for blessings
Or what if this is the final test of the second coming (Oh My God)
I'm hitting that downward spiral
Forcing myself into sleep and living the dreams
Cuz I feel like I can't be no idol
In reality I'm just as weak and need dopamine
[Bridge 2 : Monelo]
These days are going too fast and
And this is why I feel
As if I'm bout to

[Prelude : Monelo]
Y’all prolly don’t like the sad me

[Verse 3 : Monelo]
What you mean this year gonna pass
Without me dropping heat before yellow stone competes
So when your gender reveals and its burning all the trees
That blue smoke is me and I'm all about that green
It's on Kline, gotta prove it to the bloodline
It's on Kline, gotta prove it to everybody who didn't get my name right
Make it to the headlines, make it so that TMZ get hit by my headlights
But the media is devious, they looking to slander
And distract everyone, don't listen to them anchors
I've seen a lot of bullshit
But nothing compared to the local news channels
But one day, I'm gon, rise up, take off
Higher than Lamar, Eminem, All of them
Till I, High five, God
Five months later and I'm out
Got my parole, now watch me sprout
I'm a free man like Morgan
But feel like Andy from shawshank
Now as I step in the ground of my home, I know that nothing's gonna end
Life goes on and we all gotta bend
I won't crash, On God
[Outro : Monelo]
The world is burning, I keep sobbing
Know he's watching, that's why I ain't afraid
The world is burning, I keep sobbing
Know he's watching, that's why I ain't afraid
The world is burning, I keep sobbing
Know he's watching, that's why I ain't afraid
