Ah
Trapping out the East
White folks calling the police
Had to tell the neighbor
"Keep your bitch up on the leash"
Cooking up product, need a hundred mill at least
Cuz the fam's got to eat and all that... Gold minks
Haitian broads and Cuban links
Mining out some big ass diamonds it's Jubilees
And you could never fault God's timing that nigga real
But I am not one to let another take the wheel
And you could run it but not on mine, my nigga chill
And black youth are out here dying, we're getting killed
Had to tell them this is not online, this shit is real
For all them kids who shop online and face the GILT
Like you ain't basking in the privilege
All that other shit is frivolous
Fighting corporation pillages
We went and got PhD's
To fuck with all your co-conspirators
We want freedom
We want freedom
We want freedom
We want freedom
Said we want freedom
We want freedom
We want freedom
We want freedom
Hold up
Born free now we put our money in Merrill Lynch
Glory decreed, couldn't take freedom from born kings
Blood on the leaves
Young black bodies hung from the trees
Die in the streets, while system arming crooked police
Like black lives ain't matter?
Our cries for freedom sounding like indistinct chatter
Like industry wasn't built on the back of our ancestors
Queue Columbus, cuz mass genocide is the genesis
And you couldn't run from truth
Cuz the numbness is predicate
Our people found Christ
And lost touch with their heritage
African child but the dreams are American
To westernized youth, Africanism is heretic
Blurry vision that's truth that we're living with
Lost yourself and couldn't find pride in your lineage
But still wake up to see a king in the mirror
Akin to greats, black tie in a Porsche Panamera
Cuz the pressure makes diamonds all threats don't scare us
Gave us 400 years and never bet we'd flourish
Would talk about the land but look; first things first
Let's make a toast to black business
All the greats we've birthed
But had to pray that I don't die for being black today
Cuz equal ain't just for those who were enslaved
And we ain't need trusts, we made it either way
And now they take a knee when what we need's a prayer
Yeah!
Freedom ain't nothing
When people like me been in chains for so long
Freedom ain't nothing
When people like me been in chains for so long
ooh, ooh, ooh ooh!
