Listen, you need to pay attention to the words that I’m spittin’
I hope you listenin’
This my verse, for everybody that need to be heard
This the voice for all the people, this my spoken word
What should a man do if he only had one slice of bread?
Should he eat it, or split it with his family instead?
A wise women told him to eat it
He brought his family back a loaf, just what the family needed
Now that’s a real man, with a real woman that listens and understands
Life can be wild
Or life can be crazy simple like a child
I’m about to get deeper
Do you listen to the preacher? Let the devil deceive ya?
I rebuke Satan ‘cause it’s just too much love for all of the hatin’
I hope you still listening
My aunty use to tell me,
“You ain’t got a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out.”
But she still told me to never doubt
The world is full of obstacles but anything is possible
I saw a kid on the news with three published books
I saw a kid from the hood who grew up around crooks.
I saw a snake get cleaned up by a rake
I seen a shovel almost touch the devil
Listen, I saw man with no legs driving
I saw a man that lost it all with his head up, still smiling
We don’t play dice we just gamble on life
We listen to the wrong instead of the right
Damn Bill Cosby, R. Kelly, Mike Tyson, 2Pac and Makveli
I am blackface but I’m not a n*****
She said my skin too dark, I told her, “Cry me a river”
Is Tekashi69 and Michael Cohen snitchin’?
MAGA hat and a noose, is Jussie Smollett trippin’?
What a Black History Month
Remember Rosa Parks when we couldn’t sit in the front?
Thanks to Martin Luther King, we finally free
Not free enough for you, but free enough for me
Listen, what if the world just stop,
No more peace, no more love and hip-hop?
What if the world stop turning,
No more learning as the world keeps burning?
What if the sun stop shining, the moon stop glowing?
Now everybody’s frozen
What if the world just stop,
No more peace, no more love and hip-hop?
Pay attention
