(verse 1)

I'm tired of the evils
and Im tired of my peoples
This shit feels like Dialated Peoples
They lie and try to keep you to decieve you
we tired, and we tryina' end it II cause we tired of the sequels
Whatever they tryina' come up with ain't it,
praise god, Im tryina find out why we all sick
I remember the day my auntie died of cancer
genetically Im subject to the same shit
if everything happens for a reason, man that ain't shit
you think they ain't got the cure.. you sure?
listen through the doors
and you can hear applause
you try to play the game , you'll start to win awards
you try to play the game , maybe you can see the pause
they'll try to shut you up, just to keep you on the floor .. damn
and society kinda' raw with it,
these are the thoughts of the Young , Gifted , And Authentic

(Verse 2)

What Im trying to do is positive
completely honest,
I promised Imma be hot knowing nothing completely promised
Got my best foot forward Im flowing Never go left,
But I Write never knowing where the next foot going
so Im stressed
This is creation at best
and If my rhyming don't work, Hopefully I'll be realized through my death
I seen people with opportunities
In my community fall fluently , Musically to people that rhyme
but no amount of this positive shit,
could ever promise that kid
that he won't become a statistic to crime
I think Im.. providing hope to the folks that need it the most (Church)
provide the water for seeds that need it to grow (Church)
can't fake it I've always been one to work
Im showing Niggas my art, I've always been Wonderworks
and Im keeping it kinda' raw with it,
these are the thoughts of the Young , Gifted , And Authentic
