Lyrics:

Introduction:

'We're all the same. And it sounds like some speech from high up, but we're basically all the same. You know, once you take away who we are. Take away where we come from. You know, we pretty much have the same things. You ask a person who they love, the first thing they'd probably say is their mother, their husband, or whomever. I mean we all love the same thing, we all want the same thing. We all have the same fears, you know. Fear of failure, we all have the same aspirations. We all have fear of failure in some sort of way' - Sean 'Jay Z' Carter



Ayo my sword swings venomous
Law of attraction
Pain I've kept
Psychological damage
From years of panicking
Black God
My silhouette pictured on fireplaces in steel
I'm in a castle at the top of the hill
What's good?
You came through bitter we all die sinners
Took it back to my reality
With paintings and pictures I'm wildlin'
This eighty-nining
You was destined for greatness instilled
And I'm just laughin on this journey
Of glorious thrills
But what is poetry without the sickness
And what is agony without the stiffness
My Black Africa
Said you was missing a brain
And I ain't mad I was mad at you
Stuck in the rain, it's real
My solar forecast predicted a storm in the weather
Now looking back
Yall can see we was stronger together
My warpath gleaming
You niggas was fiending acceptance
I brushed it off like dirty sex
In the bed after breakfast
The future is lavish
I style for the cabbage
And cast my net out
The fish that I'm catching is philosophical
Wisdom's never an obstacle
Forever a student
The rudest dude-ist to ever do this
And stick to the plan
I want the love for rocking the mic
Not singing to you
And I'm trying to uplift your spirits
Not steal them from you
I walk with a passion
That OG Threat and them
Best to back off
My visual Tarantino
And I would hate to have to kill Bill
You understanding me
The god is respected
Past me the mic
And I'm shooting shots at any who's testing
I'm tired of looking up to these niggas
Who never meet the expectations
You was way off
My dance with the devil
And Black accomplishments
You came through bitter we all die sinners
Took it back to my reality
With paintings and pictures I'm wildlin'
Like what's the price
I'm dedicated to retrograded
Perspectives of life
[And you was corny when I met you dawg
You still ain't changed
But I still wish you all the best
Stuck in my ways]
I tell em
Interlude:

'Get involved in things that you love, and also have a standard for yourself, and have some sort of integrity and try to find some sort of truth in what you're doing. For me it's my life, it's who I am as a person. So I can't just let someone have creative control of who I am' - Sean 'Jay Z' Carter



One time if you Black and you proud
You say it
Two times if you Black and you proud
You say it
Three times if you Black and you proud
You say it
Four times if you Black and you proud



Grew up with Addi dolls
Black Art, celebrated Kwanzaa
Never really had that colorism complex
Even in rap I was barely conscious
Of my skin tone
I always admired the likes
Of Jada Pinkett and Grace Jones
Adopted as an infant
But raised around the incense
Fragments of Black pride
The one thing I give my mom credit
Caribbean roots from my birth mom I inherit
A culture of merit
The globe yearns
For our talents and abilities
Much more than song, dance, and shooting threes
Blackness is fun
Until you face what we do in society
They try and redo without hiring
The sentence of Hebrew
They try to hide it from us
I'm just glad I know that I'm a Queen
Dimensions of inside others could never dream
They televise shit that we should never see
To reprogram our prior heights
To never be
I'm a product of the 90s
Dashiki and Black TV
My chocolate fist held high
I came from beebop
They trying to oppress and eve's drop
Folklore and let our songs cry
Black Goddess even in the rhymes
