Work In Progress - Kemba, Jagged Edge, RL of Next

I am not a finished product

Only judge when I’m done

Young and black and from the projects

Got a lot to overcome

I got my head in clouds

I got my feet on land

My homies fell too deep

This is the quickest sand

I know that, I am not a finished product

Got a lot to overcome

I been changing, changing, changing, changing

I been changing, changing, changing, changing

Who knew a star could fall from oh-so-high

And land on earth

Outgrow the sky

Expand my worth

I’ll help you fly but fam come first

I am not a finished product

Got a lot to overcome

I am not a finished product

Only judge when I’m done

Young and black and from the projects

Got a lot to overcome

I’ve got so many flaws

I’ve tried to hide but it all comes out

Relied on luck 'till it all runs out

So many gods, I should call one out

Right now (right now, right now)

I was naive when it all went down

When pops went ghost you was all I had

You went up North then it all went South

Everybody I know dealing with some shit

Tension high, rent is high, so they with the shits

You get high, tell me why then I hit the shit

Catch a vibe, write a line, then I spit the shit

Giving game, 'bout to run my own internship

I done lost count of all of my mentorships

Euro-stepping to the left of your fickle shit

Still I’m blessed, I ain’t stressin’and no lickle shit (whoo)

Sunday night, momma penne olive, vodka from pentecostal church

I been scared, I ain’t finished sinning

I ain’t been repenting, what if god comes first

I been feeling like the end is nearing

All my niggas running out of options now

Nothing’s been black and white for years

I’m making deals with my conscience now

Weather getting worse, cops wylin'

Is it fair to even have a seed someday

God, family and a little money

All the things my momma said I’d need someday

Got my name from the King James

That I promised momma I’ma read someday

Hopefully, they’ll still accept my pleas

Please remember one last thing

I am still a work in progress

Only judge when I’m done
