[00:26.59] | Now I can’t pledge allegiance to your flag |
[00:28.09] | Cause I can’t find no reconciliation with your past |
[00:31.03] | |
[00:31.88] | When there was nothing equal for my people in your math |
[00:35.01] | You forced us in the ghetto and then you took our dads |
[00:38.47] | The belly of the beast, these streets are demons’ abs |
[00:41.53] | I’m telling you that setup in them sit-ups is so sad |
[00:44.71] | The system is a slab |
[00:46.46] | Corruption is the swinger sittin’ high ridin’ dirty, drag racin’ into danger |
[00:50.64] | |
[00:51.15] | And it’s so clean, pine trees smellin’ good |
[00:53.96] | We work off in the trunk and niggas in the hood |
[00:57.08] | |
[00:57.65] | So I can’t shed blood on any battlefield of yours |
[01:00.46] | |
[01:00.97] | I pray the ugly truth comes and shatters your decor |
[01:03.52] | And as it all falls down and tatters on the floor |
[01:07.40] | I shed tears, I don’t know what really matters anymore |
[01:10.46] | |
[01:14.71] | Cause I don’t know what really matters anymore |
[01:17.21] | |
[01:18.21][Hook: Casey Benjamin] | |
[01:18.83] | Many things, strangest things you ever seen |
[01:24.46] | |
[01:26.02] | Oh, look at how they swing, would you look at how they swing? |
[01:31.08] | |
[01:32.71] | Embedded they go, no eyelids gone low |
[01:37.95] | |
[01:39.21] | Or gone by sundown, they’re dodging 5-0 |
[01:43.80] | Now as I wander through the city goin’ mad |
[01:46.43] | I see the fruits are plantin’ evidence instead of grass |
[01:49.05] | |
[01:49.62] | A swindled generation with no patience, full of swag |
[01:52.93] | Man they so impatient with the stations that they have |
[01:56.12] | As long as they look good when they be doin’ bad |
[01:59.36] | Then the separation from the truth is gettin’ vast, fast |
[02:02.68] | Be a slave at first or free at last |
[02:05.99] | |
[02:06.99] | Double-edged choices make a nigga wanna pass |
[02:09.24] | |
[02:09.93] | Double-headed voices from the eagle on the staff |
[02:13.19] | The pyramid where eyes will split the spirited in half |
[02:16.32] | Divided over money |
[02:17.88] | Delighted by the dummyin’ down of the importance of crowns we’ll never have |
[02:22.32] | |
[02:22.88] | That’s why my sounds and sermons are so full of wrath |
[02:25.26] | Baptize your mind, let your brain take a bath |
[02:29.44] | Swim inside the river get delivered from the craft |
[02:32.51] | Of the witches in this business that be livin’ off your sad |
[02:36.01] | Hatin’ on your happiness you hit ‘em off with laughs |
[02:39.26] | Smile ‘til they surrender, then you kill ‘em off with glad |
[02:42.38] | |
[02:43.95] | Hello evil, I’m back |
