Lecrae

While there’s no sure route to carving out a significant presence in the music industry, there’s always something to be said for remaining true to one’s self. Since arriving on the scene with his 2004 debut Real Talk, Lecrae has been occupying two different yet not entirely opposing worlds: the sacred and the profane. Which is to say that his art, not unlike his life, has been as much about inspiring the streets, and about justice, freedom, and interrogating real-world issues, as it is about his personal journey of faith. His music has long served as a call to arms for those willing to sacrifice for a cause beyond themselves. Still, he won’t be boxed in to any genre or made to serve as a poster-child for any particular agenda. Following a host of celebrated … more »

Ay listen, real skinny, loud color Tenni's
Body marked up like graffiti
I don't push a Maserati, Beamer, Benz or Bentley
And yeah I rode a ford, at least I look spiffy
Go ahead and doubt us, what you know about us
We ain't gotta follow them (no), we take another route
No we ain't blowin' trees bro, open up my window
I see you poppin' tags, but you know that's why yo ends low

I tried to tell em we was comin', go on, let us in
Why they hatin' like we all a bunch of Hooligans
No gimmicks, spirit in my lyrics
Know when people hear it they gon' love or they fear it
And how we flow, when we show up at a show
They say we go S-O hard in the paint, they can't wait for some moe'
But some others say we preachin', some close-minded teachin'
Like we ain't heard of Marx, and Niche, believe me

Eh, they don't know about us, they don't, they don't know about us
They don't know about us, they, they, they don't know about us, 
They don't know about us, they don't, they don't
They think we dum, dum diddy dum, dum
But they gon' know, they gon' know about us, they gon' know about us
They gon' know about us, they, they, they gon' know about us
Oh they gon' know about us, they, they, they gon' know about us 
Oh they gon' know about us,they gon' know about us

Six, two, two plus, go on add it up
(Hey, that's a big problem, call it calculus)
Math on some track, but content like I had enough
Long hair, don't care, Samoan plus I'm tatted up
I know this blow ya mind, and I ain't blowin' pine
Not talkin' women lookin' skimpy every other line
Yeah, I got a dime, about to make her mine
Life in Christ got me finished like a crossed a line

With the way that you're telling me to do it, sell out to sell out
Nah man it's so foolish, done tryin' to be you and don't fit
Misfit, I don't trip, everybody hate Chris
They sayin' get with this, just like a membership
They talkin' slick like this is it, but it's just gibberish
I say I'm interested, they say 'you different'
Oh, you gon' know even if you don't let us in

Eh, they don't know about us, they don't, they don't know about us
They don't know about us, they, they, they don't know about us, 
They don't know about us, they don't, they don't
They think we dum, dum diddy dum, dum
But they gon' know, they gon' know about us, they gon' know about us
They gon' know about us, they, they, they gon' know about us
Oh they gon' know about us, they, they, they gon' know about us 
Oh they gon' know about us, they gon' know about us

(Dum dum) they say we
(Dum dum) they say we
(Dum dum) they say we
(Dum dum) so we finna go

(Dum dum) they say we
(Dum dum) they say we
(Dum dum) they say we
(Dum dum) so we finna go

Dum on em, dum on em, like I could be
Dum on em, dum on em, like you should be
Dum on em, dum on em, like I would be
Dum on em, dum on em, yeah that's cool with me

Eh, they don't know about us, they don't, they don't know about us
They don't know about us, they, they, they don't know about us, 
They don't know about us, they don't, they don't
They think we dum, dum diddy dum, dum
But they gon' know, they gon' know about us, they gon' know about us
They gon' know about us, they, they, they gon' know about us
Oh they gon' know about us, they, they, they gon' know about us 
Oh they gon' know about us, they gon' know about us
