[Chorus:]
2
They say we N -- I - Double G -- E -- R
3
We - are - much more,
4
Still we choose to ignore,
5
The obvious.
6
Man this history don't acknowledge us,
7
We were scholars long before colleges.
8
They say we N -- I - Double G -- E -- R
9
We - are - much more,
10
But still we choose to ignore,
11
The obvious.
12
We are the slave and the master,
13
What you looking for?
14
You the question and the answer.
15
[Verse 1:]
16
We trust no black leaders,
17
Use the stove to heat us,
18
Powdered eggs and government cheeses,
19
The calendars were Martin, JFK, & Jesus,
20
Gotta be fresh
21
To go to school with fly sneakers.
22
Schools with outdated books,
23
We are the forgotten,
24
Summers coolin' off by the fire hydrant.
25
Yeah I'm from the ghetto,
26
Where the old black women talk about they sugar level,
27
It's not unusual,
28
To see photos of dead homies' funerals,
29
Aluminum foil on t.v. antennas
30
Little TV sit on top the big TV eatin TV dinners,
31
Girls dye they hair with kool-aid,
32
They gave us lemons, we made lemonade,
33
But this nigga's paid,
34
Ancestry of slaves,
35
Descendant of Kings
36
It's necessary I,
37
Bling,
38
Put rings on every thing
39
Where Timbs on every scene.
40
[Repeat Chorus]
41
[Verse 2:]
42
Do I mean it like a slave master?
43
NIGGER!
44
No!
45
I'm gangsta
46
Gotta eat rappers!
47
My abbreviation
48
Was young when I caught the cases,
49
That should mean the court could see my changes
50
Take off the bracelets,
51
Savage when broke,
52
Smoke sour diesel
53
Need no Bo-flex
54
My chest still cut-up like a bag of dope,
55
Thought patterns consist of boss matters,
56
Spit Moses' "Lost Commandments"
57
Like a gross sandwich out my mouth.
58
Toast to government cameras
59
Peepin us every week
60
I must have my cars homes & phones
61
Squeaked for bugs,
62
But this is what I was dreamin of,
63
Between cutting hard coke with new razors
64
Slicing my fingers up,
65
They use to string us up,
66
We wanted everything,
67
But the one bringing us cake be the snakes
68
Like the...
69
Like the New Jack City wedding scene
70
No time for mistake trying to get it like Medellin
71
[Repeat Chorus]
72
[Verse 3:]
73
(My nig', what up my nig'? Yep!)
74
People afraid of criticism
75
But I always put myself in a sacrificial position!
76
They've been know I ain't just rappin for fame,
77
I've got my old homie half-sister, father askin' for chains!
78
Yep! I'd give this cash up
79
This paper don't matter
80
They seen me from skinny to fatter
81
When I rap about war,
82
They got the tendency to scatter,
83
They ain't my backup no more,
84
So now my enemies are at my front door,
85
Cause any time we mention
86
Our condition, our history or existence,
87
They calling it reverse racism,
88
Still to this day the streets torn,
89
My brother Junga always have a seat for him
90
Not behind me - beside me
91
You always know where to find me,
92
They say the close ones will hurt you,
93
So let's keep a small circle,
94
On the road to riches, and diamond rings
95
In the land of the blind
96
The man with one eye is the king.
97
[Repeat Chorus]
