Shackles by Gerald Walker
[Verse 1:]
They sayin' wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, Mr.
Walker
It's niggas out here hatin' and these bitches steady
talkin'
They wanna see me in the sky, but rather view me in the
coffin
'Cause they know this nigga's I'll as if I'm sneezin'
and I'm coughin'
But we give 'em reminders
We wouldn't think twice when you critics define us
Got the lead in this race, so you can get behind us
They just tryna find us
I'm with a girl who got a ass, boy, the size of ehonda
That's big
You'ont know who that is
Street fightin' with my writin'
Go and grab your glasses
Or your magnifyin' glasses
See this shit I'm tryna to kick
I got love for everybody, but with a 10-foot stick
Oh and Poe, here I go, Jay-Z said, "bubble on the low"
This is my Comin' of Age, and in a second I'm a blow
To be the biggest in my city since that nigga Al
Jarreau
I got these shackles all around with no fucking place
to go
[Chorus:]
Somebody take 'em off
I got these cuffs on my brain
I'm just tryna maintain
I just wish someone would come and help me take 'em off
(uh huh, uh huh)
'Cause I swear I'm tryna break 'em off
Now will somebody help me take 'em off
All these cuffs and these chains
'Cause I'm ready for a change
I've been tryin', but I swear it's hard to shake 'em
off (uh huh, uh huh)
Now will somebody help me break 'em off
[Verse 2:]
Sayin' wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, Mr. Walker
Old friends start to hate, extended family steady
talkin'
How he hooked up with a bunch of college kids out there
in Austin
How Cardo and Sledgren got these women tryna stalk 'I'm
