Searching for peace is easier than you think when you look within. Mother Nature reflects on their journey in search of the antidote—a healing ritual or remedy. Ultimately, the duo finds that the most potent antidote is already within, when you connect with self & use your inner power to transform your surroundings.

Lyrics

Amerrykah
Home of the brave
Amerrykah
Home of the slaves
Amerrykah
I don't feel safe

Amerrykah
Home of the brave
Amerrykah
Home of the slaves
Amerrykah
I don't feel safe

Ameyrrkah 
Ameyrrkah
How i'm aware of ya
Staring Ya
Daring Ya
Carrying ya inferior
Weapon of mass destruction
I mashed the button
(It's) nothing like bluffing 
With something in ovens
A baker of dozens
There's dope in my cousin
My brother
My mother
My sister
My love
And myself i been killing
Myself i been feeling
Myself i been healing
Myself is no realer
Than you or than you or the truth
The root of the prequel, the sequel, the threequel
The cycle continues
I hope i offend you
You lazy hating making all of the babies
In crazy ladies
Playin'
Playin' the table
Tables are turning
The bridges are burning
You fail when you try
Now you do it and learning
Lessons are blessings
The message is earn it
Don't
Question it
Question it
Test • discern it
Spirit a hear it
Your neighbors sure won't
Then it's back to ya people
Secrets they keep us
In defense unequal
In talent • balance
Too much of the malice
You'll end up like alice
So lost in the salad of savages
Cabbage is practically 
Average of all of our africans
Backwards
Backwards
Man just tell us we backwards

In Amerrykah
Home of the broke
Land of the slaves
Only see that in Amerrykah

Land of the broke
Home of the slaves
Why only in Amerrykah ?

Amerrykah
Only
Amerrykah
We are the slaves
We are the chains
Oh 
Amerrykah
Amerrykah
We are the slaves
Full of pain

We
Turning up
Turning up
Working for dollars
We spend it
We spend it
They calling us shoppas
Deal us • kill us
They caught us • shot us
(My) people dying
See me crying
I ain't lying
I been tryna keep my eyes on the prize
When we rise why we die by surprise
Capitalize, now we flying in they eyes
Real eyes
Realize
Real lies
Money bags
Money bags
Money bags
Hunnid stacks
Hunnid stacks
Hunnid stacks
Flip it
Flip it
Flip it
Tell em bring it back
Rap it
Wrap it
Package
Package in the trap
Capture
Capture
Caption
Post it follow back
Go and roll on rollercoasters for the snap
Do it feel like you or you are giving back ?
Giving love and giving dap to ya pack
@...

Home of the brave
Home of the slaves
Amerrykah
I don't feel safe

Amerrykah
Home of the brave
Amerrykah
Home of the slaves
Amerrykah
I don't feel safe

Bars Only 16

All out of options
Where do you go to be forgotten
Vacay in the tropics 
Just me and my conscious 
Imma write until it’s blue it’s all I know

Flashing signals 
Bat on my window 
Trading innuendoes 
Playin Nintendo 
Till the sun come down and then you go
Ain’t seen a smile like that before

Let me sleep
Get out of my dreams 
Cause tossin and turnin ain’t really workin for me

I bet you won’t stop breathin
Bet your heart still beatin and pumpin blood I bet
I bet you won’t lose sleep and 
My lungs still weak I can’t adjust I can’t 

I bet you won’t
Bet you won’t stop breathin bet you won’t
I bet you won’t 
Bet you won’t lose sleep I bet you won’t

All out of options 
Where do you go to be forgotten
Ears ringin from nonsense
Six strings in a mosh pit 
Bet I could find my way to you this much I know

Flashing signals 
Can’t take a hint though
Trading innuendoes 
Playing the 64
Till the sun come down and then you go
Missed my chance to run the score 

Let me sleep
Get out of my dreams 
Cause tossin and turnin ain’t really workin for me

I bet you won’t stop breathin
Bet your heart still beatin and pumpin blood I bet
I bet you won’t lose sleep and 
My lungs still weak I can’t adjust I can’t 

I bet you won’t
Bet you won’t stop breathin bet you won’t
I bet you won’t 
Bet you won’t lose sleep I bet you won’t
