Underground Railroad - Natti, Mino Slick

All my people

Come and walk with me

See the things I’ve seen

On the underground railroad

Seen talented rappers with music coming out their pores

Reduced to nothing more than chalk lines on a floor

Because a double life’s a troubled life

And we don’t know no other type

It’s just us blind holding scales and a corded mic

Flow so underground sounds traveling through the water pipes

Still I keep striving some ain’t surviving

Holding mothers in tears because there sons ain’t rising

Gears in a machine of not stop grinding

For whips, chains, slaves to the ‘caine

Ain’t nobody playing but we calling it the game

Don’t confuse it with music because your name will get you slain

And this rap shits a tactic to flip a little change

I got to go harder to show my seeds a way

Teach them while they grow how not to throw their dreams away

This railroad track led me straight to the A

But my local motives always smoking in the K

Now I’ve seen the scene just in between blowing up and quitting

Obscene the things I’m weaning from addicted to a living

Posted like a poster on the wall in one position

Pieces of my soul become the coal that fuels my engine

Steaming round the land to foreign fans that want to listen

In Sweden going hard in England going hard

Through Switzerland where border guards try to pull your card

Fans in the thousands hearing screams and applause

Come home hustling still my fool time job

Because them screams and applause ain’t keep my lights on

Learned the world ain’t on your team because they’re singing your fight song

So I got to own the moment and hold it till I’m gone

I’ve been on these tracks and traveling for a while

Seen nigga dreams start unraveling over miles

Surrender in their eyes disguised by faint smiles

I might rest for a minute but nigga I’m never down
