[00:28.05] Uh-uh-uh I'm tryna what up
[00:29.61]
[00:30.50] I say what up
[00:31.98]
[00:32.57] Uh-uh I'm tryna
[00:33.71] Sometimes I wanna leave
[00:34.85] Sometimes I wanna cry
[00:36.00] Sometimes I hate to bear the truth
[00:37.67] Sometimes I wanna lie
[00:38.80] Sometimes I wanna school the youth
[00:40.21] Sometimes I wanna ride
[00:41.42] Sometimes I wanna not think
[00:42.65] Sometimes I wanna vibe
[00:43.90] Sometimes I wanna bump Tribe and zone out
[00:46.07] This song bout a young boy
[00:47.53] That's going wild inside
[00:48.74] When my world collide
[00:50.23] With your world where your girl
[00:51.73] And your kids reside
[00:52.97] We kill the facades
[00:54.20] We feel free to fly
[00:55.69] We're birds that reserve in the charismatic sky
[00:58.29] I care about my pride too much
[01:00.05] If my clothes is new
[01:01.19] If my ride is plush if my hair is cut
[01:03.28] If my diamonds is crushed
[01:04.33] I look in the mirror I'm trendy enough Wrong
[01:06.20]
[01:06.95] Insecurity roams the black community
[01:08.99] Homes where kids must have jewelry
[01:11.31] The high school female need earrings and details
[01:13.93] So she can be cool to be amongst popularity
[01:16.61] The various name brands that reach the price scan
[01:19.58] That's not about the right price
[01:20.94] But more like the right scam
[01:22.26] To rule us all confuse us all
[01:24.59] Hit the bank within five minutes and then withdraw
[01:27.01]
[01:27.68] Now let's draw the picture of a rapper with a chain
[01:30.81] In a Range that is not paid for
[01:32.92] My cousin from the South said he just bought him a house
[01:35.91] That lives around his neck like a white collar
[01:38.29] So why fast forward
[01:39.59] Then I rewind
[01:40.85] A time machine can help me double back to slavery times
[01:43.33] Picking cotton from a field that a white man own
[01:46.30] The blacker you are
[01:47.28] Farther you from the white man's home
[01:49.06] Negro spiritual zones gave us some type of sanity
[01:51.93] Before your vanity they parted our families
[01:53.45]
[01:54.61] They put us in hundred-degree shade
[01:56.64] And outside we bathed
[01:57.83] The more we were afraid
[01:59.27] The more they made rules
[02:00.56] And trapped our minds in the cage
[02:02.16] Our freedom was so fake
[02:03.52] Couldn't see it with the eyes
[02:05.02] Of Tracee Ross uh
[02:05.95] And school was exempt
[02:07.35] See we couldn't have smarts
[02:08.79] And a smirk could get you hurt
[02:10.48] Wound diversed from a scar
[02:11.62] Four-hundred years of nothing
[02:12.85] Four-hundred years of suffering
[02:14.01] Four-hundred years of tears
[02:15.44] And tribulation miseducation
[02:16.61] See what we facing is now coming
[02:18.47] Back to the roots
[02:19.52] Remember whips on our back and
[02:20.94] If we would run they would shoot
[02:22.45] Call us niggers and figured
[02:23.41] That we'd never lived in pursuit
[02:24.71] Of happiness
[02:25.36] We captured these feelings
[02:26.29] In things that we do
[02:27.42] Thought it's abstinence in slavery
[02:28.53] But we made it come to
[02:30.01] A modern perspective
[02:31.01] My shoe selection gotta be Louie
[02:32.86] Her handbag gotta be Gucci
[02:34.36] It's fake then she foobie
[02:35.57] She still bad though
[02:36.70] And her fake Gucci ain't that bad though
[02:38.67] We filling up the gas for Rollies
[02:40.72] Upgrade to twenty-sixes out there riding Kobes
[02:43.20] My cousin from the South
[02:44.70] Slavery start in the South and I bet ya
[02:46.70] He overcompensates for the life of his ancestors
[02:49.26] So blame it on the four-hundred years we never saw
[02:52.09] The reason why the next four-hundred we gotta floss
[02:55.20] Slaves
[02:55.90]
[02:57.58] Uh I say the four-hundred years
[03:02.06] We never had nothing
[03:03.57]
[03:04.94] Barely had clothes on our back
[03:06.94]
[03:09.67] It's the reason why
[03:10.36] When we get a little bit of change
[03:11.87] We over-exaggerate on our living expenses
[03:13.41]
[03:16.42] So if you get your first big check
[03:17.94] And you cop a chain before you buy a house
[03:20.98] You're a vanity slave
[03:22.05]
[03:23.18] If you're a female and you got four
[03:24.70] Five six rings on your finger
[03:25.92] Four holes in your left ear and a nose piercing
[03:28.39]
[03:29.26] You're a vanity slave
[03:30.38]
[03:32.05] If you got an '02 Monte
[03:33.36] Carlo with twenty-fo's on it
[03:34.28] And on the back of the window it says
[03:36.36]
[03:37.37] "get on my level hoe"
[03:38.70]
[03:39.68] You're a vanity slave
[03:40.81]
[03:42.38] We all vanity slaves
[03:43.57]
[03:45.22] And with that being said
[03:46.49]
