Red - Wolf Castle

I really don’t think they understand sometimes

All they do is talk and talk

Nobody ever really wanna listen

Well here’s the truth for you, here’s the truth

Lost myself inside a busy hell

Think about my truth and sleeping in a lonely cell

Justice isn’t coming killing all our little wealth

Cast away onto our land said this the card we dealt

Truth spitting

On a mission cause I’ve seen my cousins suffering and hustling

Jacked up on a millitant picture I see the flames in they shades

Gassing all my people that dare to stand up today

Rexton ain’t been never the same

Shout out the homies up in Eskasoni

I never plan on being phony, Ain’t an activist or Holly roller

A’sutmat (aa-su-de-mat) to Gisu’lgw (gi-suulkw) every morning

So i understand, That your pain is mine

Fame is fine but Id rather be loved than spit blind

Picking up on positive signs

Immma Survivor of a genocide, mi’kmaq pride, That’s why

I Keep my heart on my sleeve and my fist to the sky

No cuffs, help me when the talking is tough

I’m always starting it rough, But I been copping the rush

For all you caught in a rut, know your spirit is up

Know your spirit is us we moving forward in love

Bringing back the land I won’t apologize

Hope is something that i’ll keep till I die

Reach for the stars I don’t want no loss

Imma break with force and ill melt that frost

Lost myself inside a busy hell

Think about my truth and sleeping in a lonely cell

Justice isn’t coming killing all our little wealth

Cast away onto our land said this the card we dealt

Truth spitting

On a mission cause I’ve seen my cuzins suffering and hustling

Jacked up on a millitant picture I see the flames in they shades

Gassing all my people that dare to stand up today

Rexton ain’t been never the same

Obsessed with the crime and the fame

Had us losing all our footing on the mountain of shame

Sons pulling out their knives to their mothers

In the struggle finna keep all of our people under rubble

Buried in the struggle

It’s not our fault that he hate the color white

Distrust they infringe upon our rights

Got a tank against our people on a high horse

Snipers pointed at my head over a golf course

Tell me if you’ve ever felt like you coud never succeed

If you knew that yo regalia d’be making a scene

Used to sit in all my classes tryna bury the creed

Grampy talking bout our people bring the fire in me

Endured a lotta loss, trouble part of my life

Reporting all I feel into infinity mics

Red is something that I wear because the feelin is right

Repping to the end of time, mama told me to fight

You’ll always save yourself first

Came up from a generation of a deep hurt

And I’ll never be erased I would die first

Imma micmac coming with a loud verse, run it again

Lost myself inside a busy hell

Think about my truth and sleeping in a lonely cell

Justice isn’t coming killing all our little wealth

Cast away onto our land said this the card we dealt

Truth spitting

On a mission cause I’ve seen my cuzins suffering and hustling

Jacked up on a millitant picture I see the flames in they shades

Gassing all my people that dare to stand up today

Rexton ain’t been never the same
