And Yet Still Oddisee

[Chorus]
One thing's for certain, one thing’s for sure
Nothing is certain, nothing is sure
Nobody's perfect, no such thing as pure
What gave you purpose may take back more

[Verse 1]
Red for the natives, white for the invaders
Blue for the ocean we crossed when they enslaved us
Green for the money they made and never gave us
Purple for the way they behave as if they saviors
Black, strong, and healthy likе America's worst drain
They tryna make fad еrry new rapper first name
No shame up until the point that the nurse came
Fit check you ain’t finna pass, but the shirt flame
Working less than we used to for more
But more ain't the more that we're used to before
Hustle for a check like runnin' for a baton
As soon as you collect, go and hand it off, poor
Hurry on back to the drawin' board but can't afford a pencil
No incentive to go on forward
I spend it all in once place, prolly in one day
Inflation got me hatin' on a trip to the corner store

[Chorus]
One thing's for certain, one thing’s for sure
Nothing is certain, nothing is sure
Nobody’s perfect, no such thing as pure
What gave you purpose may take back more
