Lyrics:
Yo, listen up, let me tell you a story
'Bout the pain and the struggle, it ain't no glory
Tuskegee, where they did us so wrong
Left us in the dark, didn't know what's going on
Back in '32, they started the game
c study they said, but it brought us shame
Untreated syphilis, we bore the pain
No cure in sight, just sufferin' in vain
(hook)
Tuskegee, oh, the scars run deep
In the land of the free, they played us cheap
Tuskegee, oh, the scars run deep
In the land of the free, they played us cheap
(v 2)
COINTELPRO, they watched our every move
Tryna silence the voices that had something to prove
From civil rights to the pulse of the street
They tried to crush the spirit, but couldn't defeat
FBI's dirty games, they tried to frame
Discredit and disrupt, but we ain't the same
We rise above, like a phoenix from the flame
Our voices will be heard, we won't be tamed
(hook)
Tuskegee, oh, the scars run deep
In the land of the free, they played us cheap
Tuskegee, oh, the scars run deep
In the land of the free, they played us cheap
(talking)
Now we're in the modern era, still fighting the fight
Speaking truth to power, igniting the light
We remember the past, but we look to the future
With a fire in our hearts, we're the ultimate truther
(hook)
Tuskegee, oh, the scars run deep
In the land of the free, they played us cheap
Tuskegee, oh, the scars run deep
In the land of the free, they played us cheap
Yes, you can
Then check it
I'm checkin' records an' facts about da battle
To da Indian, Japanese, the whites an' the blacks
Germs, they spread it, warfare, I read it
Quote me on this, yes, again an' I said it
A bigger damage than the trigger an' glocks
A mass murder in mass from a blanket full o' smallpox
No guarantees, gettin' lesser fees
Tuskegee had us go out with disease
Please check da time, c'mon, check da rhyme
Tribe o' mine, killed by da swine
Who crossed da line?
What if the world was ending
Imminent doom impending
Is it worth pretending
That he's worth the time you're spending
Cause I know you well
You're an angel trapped in hell
Seen the moment that you fell
I know you well
As for the summary
Trust came from Tuskegee
I'll be here you need company
Can't tell me that you wanna stay
With all of the games that he plays
Can't tell me that you're gonna
Can't tell me that you wanna stay
Cause I know you well
You're an angel trapped in hell
Seen the moment that you fell
I know you well
As for the summary
Trust came from Tuskegee
I'll be here you need company
Cause I know you well
Can't tell me that you wanna stay
With all of the games that he plays
As for the summary
Trust came from Tuskegee
I'll be here you need company
Cause I know you well
Can't tell me that you wanna stay
With all of the games that he plays
As for the summary
Trust came from Tuskegee
I'll be here you need company
Cause I know you well
Digi dash up in my circle you can't roll
Only cash up in my vision and that's all
Now I'm smashing on a model cause I ball
Don't say you get money boy you been broke
Digi dash up in my circle you can't roll
Only cash up in my vision and that's all
Now you wanna call cause it's all over
Next time you call can you please call sober
Wasted my life playing games with them girls like you
You stay cause he promise to change but you know it's not true
But who am I
No TJ Henderson
The smart guy
Guess I got a thing for pretty girls with dark vibes
Guess I got a thing for pretty girls with dark vibes
Guess I got a thing for pretty girls with dark vibes
Don't say you get money boy you been broke
Digi dash up in my circle you can't roll
Only cash up in my vision and that's all
Now I'm smashing on a model cause I ball
Don't say you get money boy you been broke
Digi dash up in my circle you can't roll
Only cash up in my vision and that's all
Blood on the leaves, it ain't autumn
The weight is so heavy, it hurts underneath
Now it seem that we got it the hardest
And we keep on falling
They say racism and it don't stop
They talk sexism yeah, it don't stop
Americanism yeah, it don't stop
You gotta get that wisdom and get your Glock
Before they hit your block with the National Guard
Yeah, you're protected by a compassionate guard
We hunting for jobs, being hunted by squads
It's a small world, we want it at large
America's most neglected and arrested
That's why your vaccine, I gotta second guess it
We don't know what you're shooting Black kings and Black queens
Plus, your health record ain't really that clean
We don't forget like Nat King, what happened in Tuskegee
We're getting over high blood pressure and diabetes
Like trees, we fall in the wilderness of America
Is it you don't hear us or don't care for us?
(Cool N Dre)
(This is)
It's so simple that it's complicated, uh
You think about mistakes, that's when you made 'em, yeah
The water's runnin', baby, I ain't chasin'
'Cause only in still water we can see our faces
Real shit, I told my nigga
"Boy, you better watch them hoes when you sleepin'
Nigga, them dog ass hoes be creepin'"
I got a few Ms put up for safe keeping
Long hair, don't care like I was raised in a teepee
Nigga, gun hurt, Nina said she 'bout to go streaking
Niggas 'bout to go to missin', niggas 'bout to go to deacons
Niggas 'bout to get high as airmen from Tuskegee
Niggas blind to the fact cause they don't wan' see me
Niggas don't wan' talk, niggas don't wan' reason
Niggas don't want peace, niggas don't know the meaning
Nigga said "You're a bitch, nigga", bitch European
Nigga we Herculean, nigga, skate service skiing
Nigga really overseeing, y'all niggas sight seeing
Tomorrow is what a nigga ain't guaranteeing
New Orleans had a sheriff by the name of Harry Lee
When he died, niggas shouted out "Tha-thank you, Jesus"
Cruising down the street and I ain't Caribbean
Ain't terrified and I ain't never been
Sippin' H-Town, lookin' like Jeremy Lin
I'm movin' slower than a fuckin' Maryland terrapin
I ain't got time, patience very thin
I will fuck a nigga bride on the day she marry him
I'm a bad samaritan, I'm a black American
Got white like a fuckin' Aryan, and
I don't need no pot to piss in, I just need a pot to whip it
I don't need no fuckin' help, I don't need no Scottie Pippen
I don't need a lot of niggas, I just need a chopper, nigga
Grave yard or penitentiary, I keep runnin' out of niggas
I ain't runnin' out on niggas, no
Now beam me up, Scotty
You gon' find your mommy chopped up in a tub
With "Stop snitchin" written on a note by her body
I picked up your ho and she wore something tiny
I wore something simple, she like that about me
My dope from the nineties, my dope ain't consignment
My coke ain't that diet, I hope you a client
These hoes be relying, these niggas be lying
These niggas who snitching we throw to the lions
Ain't no testifying, you know that's as quiet
So scream until you give your throat laryngitis, we so terrorizing
You caught up too much, you choose hoes to confide in
I know where you hide and that ho verified it
I told my homie, "I know where to find him"
He said, "You late, we already got him"
And by the way, it was an honor
That made my day, made me so proud
I bought my bitch some shit from her favorite designer
And a chihuahua
What's the occasion?
Rain rain go away
Rain rain go away
Rain rain go away
Ooh, baby
Rain rain go away
But we out here
They wanna turn up when I turn up watch 'em whip nene and smurda
Where they was when I had to learn the dance in the rain in the rain
You Harlem shaking but you were faking when I had to learn to dance in the rain in the rain
You hit the quan but the love was all gone when I had to learn to dance in the rain
Man we used to do the south south side but you weren't down to ride when I had to learn to dance in the rain
In the rain in the rain in the rain
Now I'm fly like a Tuskegee Airman
Up up in the sky like a Tuskegee Airman
Because in my mind I am a Tuskegee Airman
I think therefore I am
I am, I am
We are
I am, I am, I am, We are
And I am
Hash tag fast cash hustle never stops
M-O-T what that mean?
Yeah
Yeah Eid Mubarak (y'know what I'm sayin')
Just Lu bars for the Eid Mubars
Eid Mubarses
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah let's Go (yeah)
Uh tell 'em welcome to the rarefied
Heir of "I can't be up and terrified"
Pterodactyl-sharing, Red Baron meets the
Tuskegee Airmen vibes
Barrel rolling, daring dives
Come back to base like he Derrick Hodge
Sing my prayers like I'm scared of God
In my backyard doing samurai moves
Wearing pods he's kinda square and odd
From an era where we called sharing cops
Been on Ohio we once sharing cars
Mind of Aristotle
Larynx of a professor of Meritas
You might be your city's
But I'm America's
Fill in the blanks, kill 'em with thanks
You know I'm just a flight away
If you want it you could take a private plane
A kilómetros estamos conectando
Y me prendes aunque no me estés tocando
You know I got a lot to say
All these voices in the
Background of my brain
Y me dicen todo lo que estás pensando
Me imagino lo que ya estás maquinando
Yeah
Kill 'em with thanks, that's that Jean Grey
I walk a lonely road, that's that Green Day
Far from weak, a young black history month
Heralding good news
Mild sauce jumping out my wing tray
House on vinyl, money kinda vital
And when it turn rival
You go against the Bucks like
Phoenix in the finals
Don't lose your congregation by
Preaching to the Bible i'm in the zone
My friends are still alive and I'm rhyming
Like a diamond in my dome, wordplay
Tell Huggy I want a Uzi for my birthday
All these push-ups and curls got
Me filling out like surveys
I'm just studying religion
Chil interrupt my sessions with
Phone calls from prison been out the game
Hall of Fame reported me missing
When I gold this album
Oh I'll be back to get my position eyahhh
You know I'm just a flight away
If you want it you could take a private plane
(woo) a kilómetros estamos conectando (yeah)
Y me prendes aunque no me estés tocando
(yeah, yeah) you know I got a lot to say
All these voices in the
Background of my brain (yeah)
Y me dicen todo lo que estás pensando (ahh)
Me imagino lo que ya estás maquinando
Put the coke inside the weed, them niggas seasonin' the greens
Rap game turned from the slingers to the fiends
But I'm in between, I mean
I ain't pickin' teams, but I had a dream like King
Fuckin' on this pretty little bi-, queen, I mean
Point me to the cheese, niggas talkin' cream
Park the car, I'm 'bout to part the seas
And move a mountain for money, nothing keepin' me
From gettin' to you, gettin' to me, Marvin G, Tammi T
But get your eyes cleaned for something you have never not, not seen
"Okay, well
Prior to coming to Tuskegee (uh)
From high school I went to college here, then Tuskegee Institute
While in college I had a professor that I was really impressed with
He got me interested into politics
He was the first black (uh) councilman in the city of Tuskegee" (check)
Take a chance, have faith, my lad
You got all of the same tools all the greats have had
Maybe lesser than that
Way back when I was puttin' on my football hat
This institution came recruitin' little Route for the stats
They sat me in a room with my dad
And it was cool but when they left I was glad
And my pops was too, he said that's good-ass parenting
Reminding me 'bout that place that did them nigga experiments
On them black people, sharecroppers, down in Alabama, damn
It's not that far from Atlanta, it was the 1930s
They did them black folks dirty because a tan
A man was not a man, nigga, your granny wasn't grand
A scam into the plan to go recruit a group of stupid niggas
And shoot them up with syphilis instead of shoot to kill 'em
That's stupid different
The lengths that y'all trip to catch a nigga slippin' and for what?
We don't smoke marijuana in Tuskegee
We don't take our trips on L.S.D.
We don't burn our draft cards down on Main Street
We like living right and being free
We don't make a party out of loving
We like holding hands and pitching woo
We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy
Like the hippies out in San Francisco do
And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
A place where even squares can have a ball
We still wave Ol' Glory down at the courthouse
And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all
Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear
Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen
Football's still the roughest thing on campus
And the kids here still respect the college dean
And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
A place where even squares can have a ball
We still wave Ol' Glory down at the courthouse
And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all
In Muskogee, Oklahoma, U.S.A.
Glock 33 one more bullet than my teeth
Spray 223's monkey nuts drum hold heat
That's a guarantee
Agree to disagree
But I won't be no Tuskegee
Experimental nominee
I put that on my rosary
Then flip it good economy

8 inches of mahogany
And she tryna give brain
Like she studying neurology
My new bitch is Cherokee and mixed wit Lebanese
Yo new bitch is kerosene she burning everything
She can't be seen wit me ay
That girl for tha city ay
Blow she think she Whitney so
She don't care about her kidneys ay
Blowing blowing blowing like a ref that love that whistle
Kelly
Rollin rollin rollin motivation for my flowin
And that chain still choking
Like a Nigga smoking
Backwoods built like a god damn Samoan
I wish I was joking
Loud pack cause commotion
I go wit tha motion
Backstroke in her ocean
Cocoa butter lotion
Keep my bitches smoother than these bitches and they know it
Midas skin she golden
Glock 33 one more bullet than my teeth
Spray 223's monkey nuts drum hold heat
That's a guarantee
Agree to disagree
But I won't be no Tuskegee
Experimental nominee
I put that on my rosary
Then flip it good economy

White bitch love me
Probably cuz you dusty
Always getting money
Can't trust her if she crusty
Shawty want that action
Beat it Michael Jackson
She just like my fashion
Get money no subtraction
I been balling like the nets
Hitting some 3's then I turn on the jets
Your girl she wanna know me
I hit it and I quit then I'm on to the next
Roll up and smoke some OG
I need me an eighth just so I can feel blessed
Riding around in an AMG
Had to park just to count up my checks
I need new Mercedes
This one drive me crazy
Cookies got me lazy
Always feeling hazy
Ex bitch is so crazy
But she entertaining
And the head amazing
So I ain't complaining
Glock 33 one more bullet than my teeth
Spray 223's monkey nuts drum hold heat
That's a guarantee
Agree to disagree

And she tryna give brain
Like she studying neurology
Uh, I can't feel my face
Damn, watch me elevate
So, I can't feel no lames
That mean don't swerve in my lane
And I am so progressive
Like this flow I thought of mane
So these niggas cannot talk to me
My bitch she future gothic
And you niggas might not top this
Off of tha rip
Like rest in Prada
But I don't like no designer
Come n shop and we might find a
Old New peace from like Madonna
You ain't peep it now you wanna
And I just might do it if I see that lava
No neck no problem just a whole lotta swallow
Spirits in them shells oh my sleepy hollow
Peppermint that Nigga Ralph Lauren polo
Got a Nigga feelin just like Han Solo
Glock 33 one more bullet than my teeth
Spray 223's monkey nuts drum hold heat
That's a guarantee
Agree to disagree
But I won't be no Tuskegee
Experimental nominee
I put that on my rosary
Then flip it good economy
I do it all unconsciously
She wanna film pornography
I give her morning wood
8 inches of mahogany
And she tryna give brain
Like she studying neurology
Scared by they air but they ain't sharing
Must we Tuskegee Airmen
Everytime they get a hair in?
Get a chair but tables turn
A hundred miles in the hairpin
You get a seat, they say get a suit
Cause they won't see you if
You don't wear them
Invisible man go to war with a suit
, cause we scare them
Gangsta enough to flip the table over
But got the manners to then push the chair in
Niggas wanna be on thrones
But all the power's with the chairmen
I just wanna be in my zone
Cause a nigga don't care then
Word to God, he made me bright
Word to God, man he gave me breath
Police out here tryna give you life
Streets out here tryna give you death
Energy tryna give me strength
Enemies tryna give me stress
RIP that nigga Clip aBN, F 'N F
I'm breaking it down
I finally figured it out
Good God I'll wait for the gun
Pressed to my temple
See then what they have done
Led by example
I won't forget 1932
In Tuskegee, and neither should you
They were in Waco
MK ULTRA
The Prohibition
I'm breaking it down
I finally figured it out
Good God I'll wait for the gun
Pressed to my temple
See then what they have done
Led by example
Screaming Good God
Screaming Good God
I'm screaming Good God
I'm screaming Good God
First things first peace and love to the people
Why they tryna shoot us up, like we the b-roll
I'm just drawing a line in the game like a free throw
They just wanna box us but this ain't a free show
Can't really stop us cause we conquer serpents
Followed my chakras to find some freedom
I been on the block but no I'm not a mason
They just want to book us cause they ain't got no patients
They just want to book us cause they ain't got no patience
If you don't take the vaccine
They gon put you outta their society
I don't need the nano tech inside of me
Mother Nature be the only Pharmacy
Feel like they tryna kill me
Do you remember what they did in Tuskegee
I'm just tryna show you what the truth be
I just hope my people live healthy
You just gotta be free
I'm just tryna be free (I'm just tryna be free)
I just hope my people get free (I just hope my people get free)
I just hope my people get free
They said I had ADHD
And that my brain didn't think straightly
But I know this just the way Yah made me
So Imma just do it to the day he take me
He put it in my mind to meditate
So I did till I saw a better day
Take a breath and you can find a better way
Take a moment, just pray
If you don't take the vaccine
They gon' put you outta they're society
I don't need the nano tech inside of me
Mother Nature be the only Pharmacy
If you don't take the vaccine
They gon' put you outta they society
I don't need the nano tech inside of me
Mother Nature be the only Farm I see
Mother Nature be the only Farm you see
Mother Nature be the only Pharmacy
Mother Nature be the only Farm I see
Mother Nature be the only Form
Mother Nature be the only Form you see
Mother Nature be the only Form I see
Mother Nature be the only Pharmacy
Mother Nature be the only Farmacy
Feel like they tryna kill me
Do you remember what they did in Tuskegee
I'm just tryna show you what the truth be
I just hope my people live healthy
You just gotta be free
That’s absurd
We gotta consciously stimulate the vagus nerve
Just to breathe
It shouldn’t have to hurt just to breathe
I just wanna fly like the Tuskegee
Shouldn’t have to plead just to breathe
Or make phone calls just to breathe
Don’t tell me I gotta vote just to breathe
How we still protestin’ just to breathe
Just to be treated equally?
Yah, what you know about trees
And men swinging from them, that look like me!?
How do you say that don't affect us?
Tuskegee, how you let them infect us?
It's fear of the black semen
Putting sage on this page to eradicate these demons
This for Tulsa, Oklahoma, this for Rosewood!
Money talk (Money talk)
Bullshit walk (Bullshit walk)
Money talk and the bullshit (Bullshit walk)
The money talk (Money talk)
Bullshit walk (Bullshit walk)
Yea, money talk (Money talk)
And the bullshit walk (Bullshit walk)
Uh, money talks, if you only gotta dollar then it's small talk
Ball and parlay at Tuskegee, drawing plays up with the chalk
I started with nothing and made me a movement, pioneer like Tony Hawk
I'm putting that shit on everytime I walk through, lent on the shirt gotta brush it off (Brush it off)
Skating through underground ATL
Know all of the streets, I been here for years
Never took shortcuts, I never feared
Tryna touch a hundred by the end of the year
Nothing to lose, my eyes on the prize
When I step out, I gotta be wise
Put on the shades when I make deposits (Deposits)
If I get famous, ain't wearing disguises (Disguises)
Room getting cluttered got too many watches
Different colors, I got all type of options
Orange and green, stay reppin' my college
I just started poppin', ain't no one stopping a nigga
Two three on a whole nother wave, I'm waving my hands swag surfin' on these niggas
Should've known better boy if you thought I was a quitter
If you not tryna chat then stop all that chitter
Yea, I'm a star like Chris Tucker
Yea, catch me in rush hour traffic
Yea, always strapped never lacking
Hit you with a kick like Chan, no Jackie (Ha, ha)
Yea, shining too bright I'm a diamond
In the rough, had to go do some mining
Found my way, damn it's perfect timing
Middle finger to my opps, fuck showing kindness (Kindness)
Cooking up magic, don't look in here
See a fly nigga when I look in the mirror
Left hand stuck in the air, Fisher
Everything green bean, that's for sure
Right hand can't fit in my back pocket
Too many dollars bussin' out the wallet
Putting it together myself, no stylist (No stylist)
Money talk (Money talk)
Bullshit walk (Bullshit walk)
Money talk and the bullshit (Bullshit walk)
The money talk (Money talk)
Bullshit walk (Bullshit walk)

Washington
Showed us how to do it
Work until it’s done
That’s what he taught his students
Built Tuskegee and kept God first
Made himself a legend
By putting in the work
Work, work, work, work
Make yourself a legend
By putting in the work
Work, work, work, work
Make yourself a legend
By putting in the work
What don’t kill you can only make you stronger
Work while it’s day ‘cause soon it will be over
Getting fast money gon’ lead you down the wrong road
But with God and hard work anything is possible
It's a split decision, gotta pick a side with this division
But we ain't fit for livin', we can't protect our women and children
Man, we get sick, that Jake gon' give us Clorox and Penicillin (ha)
Experiment in Tuskegee, showed me you would deceive me (forreal)
As the city burned down and the night fall
'96 Impala, we just bouncin' like it's Roundball
This ain't the '90s, and the youngings, I ain't scared, y'all
The water boys, they might shoot back at the red dawgs (oh)
I tell 'em plot plans, strategize, organize (yeah)
Immobilize a secret army and stay unified
How we feel for me (that's how I'm feelin')
To be all alone (that's how I'm feelin', alone, shoot)
All alone, yeah (fuck that shit, that's how I'm feelin')
How we feel for me (ain't no God to calm me down, how I'm feelin')
To be all alone (shoot)
All alone (now fuck that shit, that's how I'm feelin')
How we feel for me (how I feel, how I feel, how I feel, how I feel)
(I mean the truth is)
To be all alone (I'm a human, you a human)
(Skin color aside, riddle me this)
All alone, yeah (how dare I speak pace to a maniac?)
Plow
I’m just playing, I just got a lot of cash now
Raised in Cali, LA, but I’m in Atlanta now,
Remote working, for some corporate cash cows
If this rap shit don’t work,
I still got my degree
I graduated from Tuskegee,
The illustrious HBCU university

But teach my own, the sound of black unity
Together we can rise and now's the opportunity
The Tuskegee Experiment, indeed it was big
When they used the black man as a guinea pig
Animalism, pumped on a lower level
But can only be the works of the devil
And I'm telling you now the frustration
The future's facing from the anger in the nation

Lonely nights in the big city
We used to fuck
You ain't fuckin wit me
One rolled to ease my mind
It's always hard around this time
I'm tempted to make that flight
But my passport might get denied
We living in these crazy times
Just need some real love in my life
Sick of this mask
When was the last time
We linked up
Shits all bad
When will it pass
Just wanna live it up
Making me sad
Sick of this mask
I just need your touch
Shits all bad
When will it pass
Just wanna live it up
Now they want me on this vaccine
I ain't forget about Tuskegee
I don't trust no politician
All these actors
No one leading
It's a shit show these days
Speaking out loud
Yo pardon me
I'm tempted to make that flight
But my passport might get denied
We living in these crazy times
Just need some real love in my life
Sick of this mask
When was the last time
We linked up
Shits all bad
When will it pass
Just wanna live it up
Making me sad
Sick of this mask
I just need your touch
Shits all bad
When will it pass
Just wanna live it up
Don't build your house on Ruby Ridge
Don't ask if the election's rigged
Don't listen to the cries from the burning witch
Don't measure out the crop circles
Don't chase the trail of chemicals
Don't scale the shifting magnetic poles
Or tally up the Tuskegee death toll
Don't count the kids at the cobalt mines
Don't research the birth rate decline
Don't worry about who the Cartel pays in bribes
Don't tune into the dog whistle
Don't track the stolen missiles
Don't test Hollywood for adrenochrome
Or study Balencigia's photos
Well there is hole that we are all falling in
Like frightened, little, white rabbits
The wolves are howling for blood again
As we hide deep within our dens
Just waiting for those teeth to sink in
Don't reconcile the bank bailouts
Don't question how the virus got out
Don't challenge what the censors don't allow
Don't search the remains for thermite
Don't demand justice for those war crimes
Don't turn your clocks back to the phantom time
Or dig where the Tartarian mud has dried
Out of our holes we are all climbing
Like brave, little, white rabbits
Let the wolves howl, we are not listening
With our eyes so wide open
For the times are changing
In a small town in Alabama, just outside of Tuskegee
There was a heat wave, there was a dry spell
Haven't seen a drop of rain in weeks
Out on back roads two young lovers went out driving after dark
Flicked a cigarette out the window looking for a quiet place to park
It didn't take long in the dry grass for that tiny spark to turn to flame
On the front lawn of an old building
Where on Sunday mornings all the townsfolk came
And they said
Holy Smokes
The church burned down
Everybody stop and stare
People come from miles around
Bow your heads and say a prayer
All the townsfolk were brokenhearted
That their beloved house of worship was all gone
Some people said was the devil
Some said it must have been the will of God
But they decided to pull together, and donate what they could afford
They would build a brand new chapel
Hallelujah, Praise the Lord
Holy Smokes
The church burned down
Everybody stop and stare
People come from miles around
Bow your heads and say a prayer
Never knowing that they were guilty
The two young lovers decided to marry
The first wedding on that new altar
I guess that some things are meant to be
Holy Smokes
The church burned down
Everybody stop and stare
People come from miles around
Bow your heads and say a prayer
Holy Smokes
The church burned down
Everybody stop and stare
People come from miles around
Bow your heads and say a prayer
