Lyrics:
and heartless
This is my story when I walked in constant darkness
I longed for the praise of man and not the Great I AM
I used race for my praise - it was
like the crowd laughed at Carrie
Black lives matter, true - I agree
But before all that we gotta have unity
This is when they know not to mess with
higher
Nah, every day I wake up I just feel more inspired
My determination is key, and it’s not ever gonna expire
By the time I'm done on the track, you’ll
fathers walked out on their kids and left them neglected
My only regret about not selling out and getting richer
Is that if I made millions I could've
Look
A lot of people say that I'm
Cursed right now
For some reason
You know what?
Let me tell a story man haha Yo
I see my demons in my Mafucking
And hide or protect the week
I am not alive nor dead nor gray nor anything absolute
Nor anything absolute but I am black
That may mean gamma ray or brown
chained together
They really was lost
Racism isn't natural, it's merely divorce
Before the slave trade
Black was considered distasteful
By the Oxford
they history but here is one thing
Negro at one time included morning star, Pedro
God wake us up before we die not knowing we all one let's go
When I
the moment
And notice that I'm one of the few leaders who been chosen
Naija in my heart when I'm talking that broken English
I tell am "No wahala" , it's not
you're not careful faith in anything but self
Can be amusing, right
So, when my mind is attacked
I just plead the blood
But Satan just expose my lack
He
dapper
cnd we blooders from different mothers and we the kinda blooders that help to cross borders
I'm proud of my black, I eat my mommas meals bitch, fuck
the Master Gee
Well, my name is known all over the world
By all the foxy ladies and the pretty girls
I'm goin' down in history
As the baddest rapper there
black
Now take it back, you attack
Just prepare your boots for an adventure
It's in the bag
They made the gravest of mistakes
Doomed by the eyes
written
For my God I've been smitten
By the snake they've been bitten
Showing all that's been hidden
Through my God we get Victory
Not just books it's his
I'm diggin my pain
I'm telling past stories to you it's history (Mm-mm)
"I rewrite my story, to you it's history"
I feel like my verses are heavenly
courage
Black people are being murdered in the streets by police
Every day
He said let me tell you if you wanna be woke
You gotta listen to the stories
pain was my start
White Jesus, that's not my God
Where y'all get, that one from
Bronze skin, baby black is Beautiful
Wool hair, know we thick
forgot
After realizing
My peers did not understand it
They did not understand me
So I rejected
habichuela y mangú
much preferring Happy Meals
And Big Macs
If you're not careful faith in anything but self
Can be amusing, right
So, when my mind is attacked
I just plead the blood
But Satan just expose my
the square
Nobody is allowed to fill the air
With dead black boys names
When Dr. King's voice is playing
Just like that we were changed
From angry to history
So when they write the story of my city, what things will they write down
Will they hold up an image that's pretty, or will they look at what we've
you no fairytale or pretend
History and religion, riddled by sin
One man believin he's better than his kin
Heartless men of Oz with bodies of tin
on the news, let's figure out who we blaming
Many benefit off my hood from not changing
Exploiting my culture, they aiding and abetting and it's the black
physically
That don't mean I'm not affected by the history
My grandmama was a slave, that shit gets to me
And you ain't got no motherfucking sympathy, you
