Vince Staples White Flag

Tekst piosenki

[Refrain]
Sometimes love can turn to war
I’ve seen it all before, not far from par the course
Try not to get too lost
It ain’t no coming back soon as your back’s against the wall
Light as a rock, rough as a hard place
Out of the box because of God’s grace

[Verse 1]
Hard to mourn from in the casket
Stars are born, I’m niggalactic
When the pigs see a young black man in traffic
Why they treat me like I’m in a UFO?
Cuff me in the backseat, so I can’t phone home
How does it feel to be all alone? Quite familiar
Freeway rocked la familia, Goliath
Folks got too high, now it feels like I’m flying

[Chorus]
White flag, I don’t wanna fight no more
(I don’t wanna fight anymore)
White flag, I don’t wanna fight no more
(I don’t wanna fight anymore)

[Refrain]
Sometimes love can turn to war
I’ve seen it all before, not far from par the course
Try not to get too lost
It ain’t no coming back soon as your back’s against the wall
Light as a rock, rough as a hard place
Out of the box because of God’s grace

[Verse 2]
Squabble up, I see The Devil in the audience
Seen friends turn foe, eyes locked on the backdoor, gotta keep it shut
Hip-hop taught me all y’all love Black folks, but it’s not enough
Chicken feet in the yard, .223’s and ARs, but it’s not enough
You my baby doll, voodoo
I can make your dreams come true
I got what you need, come through
Just promise me you won’t be trouble
No time for that, this interaction’s not cardiac
Love’s a losin’ game, like Amy sang, I don’t got time for that

[Chorus]
White flag, I don’t wanna fight no more
(I don’t wanna fight anymore)
My white flag, I don’t wanna fight no more
(I don’t wanna fight anymore)

[Refrain]
Sometimes love can turn to war
I seen it all before
Not far from par to course
Try not to get too lost
It ain’t no comin’ back soon as your back against the wall (Wall)
Love is a rock, rough as a hard place
Out of the box because of God’s grace
