[Verse]
One girl with dreams too big for her town
She might as well talk foreign they never heard a sound
Too young to know the business on her own
Wishin' that she skipped a generation scrolling through her phone
Three little birds always make it known
It’s impossible irresponsible farcical to hope
Time place and people never in her zone
Four closed not a day I don’t wish I could trade lives and watch her grow
One boy born into poverty
Caught in the jungle all you want are Barе Necessities
Mothеr like a lioness got no time for no pity
Shame on you you’ll never beat your brother in these things
Stop chasin' after dreams and chase money trees worker bees gotta work hard to please the queen
Money so squeaky clean made it he never wanna spend it
She knows how to set him free he don’t know how to end it
One woman with no room of her own
Went from Virgin here to be birthin' kids when she ain’t grown
Flowin' like a river through the systems she couldn't oppose
And that's just the way it goes I suppose, raised by Wolves, it's all she knows
Only dishes out what she's seen before
Pity how we only open up behind closed doors
She never let her art Go though, bono
She give all her light to others 'round her so she burn slow
One man too sweet to seek control
Learnt very early on that he must do what he’s told
Simple in his soul, happy with a hand to hold
But years of never taking for himself was bound to take a toll
Be a man now, you got your family to defend now, pretend now, that you know what you want put your hand out
Take what is given don’t go asking for help now till he’s grateful for his death as he takes his last breath
I blame it on the east and I blame it on the west
For never letting my people unload the weight off their chest
For asking them to clean up while their mind was a mess, blame for
My Dalis and Fridas gettin' pawned for your chess game
I weep for you, keep for you, I don’t do this for my gain
I take for you, break for you, your pain is in my veins
Heaven is a lucky place, for you to grow your grain
I know you’re looking down on me, and you’ll make it rain
Every little piece takes root in me, takes root in me
All these precious flowers bore fruit in me, bore fruit in me
I ain't by myself I'm family, you're family, I’m family
Livin' for your names it brings me peace, it brings me peace, it brings me peace
And what a tragedy, it gives me the Shakes-
Sphere spinnin' too fast deadly are the blades of the ceiling fans
Where we hang, our tired bodies, gentle hands, a culture so beautiful the greedy couldn't handle it
The money dance, our bodies never meant for it
The circumstances, can turn your deity to a devil
The secret glances, the tortured advances
Of a mind that never can fit, the preachers word, Francis
Wham! tell us where to go-go
Took our lands, and left us only bo-bones
Broke our clans, and left us with the po-po
Now we got one foot everywhere it can go
Wham, we were left with no home
We learn fast, we catchin’ up the time though
History repeats itself, we gettin to the throne
This the plan, We up next in the show flow, yo
