Gif the Griot

No Born ID by iamtheGIF

A soulful, cinematic moment suspended in time. “The Day” drifts between love, fear, and surrender — a warm blend of poetic R&B and dreamlike emotion. Close your eyes, breathe it in, and let your heart play the melody.

“Good Job” by Gif is a raw, unfiltered portrait of growing up caught between praise and punishment, talent and neglect. The track tells the story of a gifted kid labeled “so smart” yet left unsupported, slipping through the cracks of the school system, pressured by family expectations, and eventually pushed toward survival over success. With haunting honesty, Gif flips the phrase “get a good job” into both a demand and a curse — a reminder of how society demands achievement without ever teaching the tools to reach it.

"Lost with Dreams" is a raw, introspective journey through the blurred lines between sleep, dreams, and the harsh weight of reality. With poetic lyricism and haunting vulnerability, the artist explores themes of self-doubt, ambition, and emotional fatigue—capturing the inner conflict of someone torn between wanting to fly and feeling grounded by pain. It’s not just a song—it’s a late-night confession, a mental tug-of-war, and a cry for clarity in a world that often feels too heavy to carry. Gritty, honest, and beautifully conflicted—Lost with Dreams speaks to anyone who’s ever questioned their purpose while searching for peace.

The Sorrow" by IamtheGIF is a raw, unfiltered reflection on struggle, survival, and systemic oppression. Over a haunting, melancholic beat, GIF delivers vivid storytelling that paints the pain of poverty, crime, and betrayal. The lyrics weave imagery of urban despair with moments of grim resilience — referencing everything from drug trafficking to shattered dreams, all underscored by the harsh reality of trying to stay afloat in a world designed to drown you. It's not just a song; it's a lyrical documentary of sorrow, strength, and survival.

Tell me you feel me blowing by in the wind/ tell me you feel me in the raindrops that fall on your skin/ tell me you love/ then just tell me again/ I wish I could say it back/ hold you in my arms/ head on my shoulder rub your back/ I wish that I could say that I'll be back/ but once the curtains close they say there is no second act/ though that was never established as a fact/ so I'll just keep my eyes on you/ the skies on blue/ the silver line fine and sunshine too/ plant dreams in your dreams that dreams do come true/ and I will always be there for you/ be there for you/ cause I care for you/ so I swear I will always be there for you/ I'm telling you Always/ always… Sweaty she spreads her thighs/ screams/ pushes/ then a baby cries/ they wipe him off/ place him in her arms where he lies/ barely able to open his eyes/ wasn’t Christian still got him baptized and she wept/ at the thought of him taking his first step/ breast feeding/ caressing his head as he slept/ crawled on the ground/ stood/ stumbled/ fell back down/ first words were “daddy”/ though he was never around/ woke up out her sleep when she heard a thunderous sound/ called her to the street/ him lying on the ground/ blood on her knees she wept/ at the thought of him taking his first step/ clutched to her chest/ caressing his head as he slept/ tears from her cries/ flow from her cheeks/ to his eyes/ as colorful dust rise to the skies/ her eyes to the skies/ did all that she could/ and they say/ only the good/ and they say/ only the good

What are words to a deaf man? What are the thoughts of a dead man? What’s life without living? What’s freedom to a man in prison ? What’s money's worth? I wonder… What’s the reason we were put on this earth? What if we were told the reason at birth Couldn’t say it and couldn’t spell it And the dent between our nose and lips Came from when GOD took his fingers and said Shhhhhhhhhhh Don’t tell it If we’ll ever get paid what’s owed to us Wonder if there’s a hell Man, I wonder if heavenly gates are closed to us Wonder why man walk and birds fly Wonder if rain is tears of pain That falls from the clouds when the sky cry I wonder If we ever really die Wonder if life’s a lie I wonder if death is the truth And we fear death because lies hurt less than the truth I wonder I wonder if death and sleep is the same love and pain is the same I wonder what’s GOD’S real name I wonder why black people could never get over Cause we keep pulling each other under I wonder With all these foundations Collecting billions in donations there’s still hunger I wonder Are people truly lost How could we curse a gun And bow to a cross When they both are instruments of death How we go to church Pray for the best Wishing Clutching a symbol that has such a heinous definition Wonder if they see Where in the bible does god say use this to praise me I wonder Deep in your heart my friends Do you praise Jesus out of love Or for the fact he died for your sins I wonder Think so hard What if Christ killers Were devil worshipers, and with no regard Sacrificed Christ to the symbol of satan As a slap in the face to God I wonder If cancer, homosexuality, and AIDS Aids crusades for people utilizing its role As a form of population control I wonder If racism and classism role Is to keep us fighting to get fucked as a whole I wonder Why black people so threatened by black people And want to be anything rather than black people But perpetrate as if they so proud to be black people And black people aint got nothing but black people That perpetrate that we lack tact and pack lethal And that's lethal
