lyrics

they move out the slum n immigrants change
hold on to your culture
dont change your name
but station to station
every place in the nations
where my people been chased
keep the taste of the pavement
souls may be born pure
it's the world thats tainted
and i'm getting wasted
and i'm getting wasted 

and i'm just tryna smoke a bit bag a chick and strok
e
yeah i know the flood approach but we can get a boat

thick thighs, full lips, i could be ya man

i been on that greyhound , bolt bus peter pan

i been off the planet girl you dont understand

i know there's somewhereelse where we can work the land

i been off the planet girl i seen past the veil

this is just a bluescreen, it aint even real


l

they thrown a parade that day I wasn't in the crowd

i didn't feel what they felt, under the golden bough

lights of a ufo crimson against the cloud

i see them shining still, shining like chinatown



you'd be king for the day man, wearin that ivy crown
reign when the wheat grows, and maybe beyond the fall

but somebody pay the price and somebody weigh the dice

justice is blind just a line in the book of life

all the judges crooked

justice is so hard to find 
they changed it all like brooklyn

rich get, riches, we get, scraps
I know the systems riggged and I dont chase the cash

i don't even want that

amalek live in in a fancy crib, burn it up like a loud pack

they dont een know me

i'm about to jump off and they been gettin cold feet, i been getting no sleep
