Y'all My Ni**as歌词
We use the word everyday
Now if we don’t know the capacity of this word
Are we headed for conflict or not?
Because we did not breakdown the capacity of the same what?
Brothers and Sisters this is why we’re still hung up in consciousness
we’ve been taught wrong.
Find a room to lock yourself in and close the door
It's some heavy concepts that we gotta explore
We gotta strip the word down rugged and raw
The rhetoric of martin king just aint around no more
Dave bowie ain't here james baldwin neither
They all were leaders
But they ain't help me get this Porsche two seater
A lawyer left the hood he never looked back
To be a fortune 500 ceo it took rap
So what if my pants sag with my hat turned back
The same swag got our merchandise flying off the rack
Marketing companies that's hiring blacks
Fresh hip hop lingo for your campaign ads
The controversy surrounds who could say it and when
Some ****** are full time some play and pretend
So **** that no apologies on the issue
If it offends you
It's meant to
It's that simple
Tryin to erase me from y'all memory
Too late I'm engraved in history (I'm here my ******)
Speak my name and breath life in me
Make sure y'all never forget me (cuz y'all give me life)
Cause y'all use my name so reckless
Whether to be accepted or disrespected (and I love it)
And I love it especially when y'all do it in public
And I'm the subject
Cause y'all my ******
Yo I was thinking a little bit what would it take
To authenticate my *********
Ball ridiculous
26 inches when I call up the dealership
Ahh that's some ***** ****
We only out for our own benefit
We havin’ too many kids
We Claudine’s welfare recipients
The infamous free clinics is the sickest ****
It make me think what the hell they clean they syringes with
Everybody bleedin
The cops are the demons
Courtrooms full of goons
Jail buses leanin
Handcuffs squeezed too tight
On youth life
If u fight they just give in
People used to do sit ins
They got Nigeria and Niger two different countries
Somehow Niger turned to nigger
And **** got ugly
The problem is we started thinking like the colonists
‘Til Noble Dru Ali
Started droppin that consciousness
My father was not a banker
Neither was my neighbor when it came to getting paper
Who the hell was gonna train us
A pressure couldn't escape us through the ages
We changed the basis of derogatory phrases
And I say it's quite amazing
The use the ghetto terms developed our own language
No matter where it came from
It's celebrated now people are mad if they ain't one
Every word we use- It has a capacity
And if you don’t understand the word you’re using and understand the capcity of it
You are using words that is creating a destiny for you
that you don’t even know or even conscience of
Too late I'm engraved in history
Make sure y'all never forget me
Whether to be accepted or disrespected
