Wunderlan (feat. Aniya Teno & Ahnia Leary)

Fast I often think about the fight of the Black Man, Told by the world he can't think like others can Eat and drink where others can, shackled by his feet and hands No village, no image, what it means to be a man Another being half goddess half human The healer, the holy, the sacred Black Woman You had your head on a swivel Waiting for life's unapproval One day one day you'll see You don't need no love but your love Your love White clouds in your brown eyes Brown skin in the sunshine And the water feels just right U were made to touch the sky u were made to fly And the roots down under call to you They say "face the world in front of you" "We gon hold you tight" You got it you got it You got it you got it I've been fighting these demons Won't make it past the season Tears, sweat, and blood I'm bleeding Someone give me a reason And I don't know what to believe in Demon's fiending like Eve when the apple swinging low Odds are I'm betraying your wishes, and I ain't even know I'm Judas wit the shit, you been eluding to this shit Life ain't tailored for a nigga, I ain't suited for this shit Won't be the man I'm tryna run from I'm flipping over stones, pick up the phone to call my loved ones Reborn to Wunderlan, and now the future gon be undone I've just become one, but gon be touring out in London by 23 100% black in the genes so come and fuck wit me Used to hate that fact, but now I'll say I'm black triumphantly My people's pockets peter griffin, money in abundancy So suddenly, I'm changing up my path, don't need no summary Uhh I know my life been very ugly Regret the times when you was low and I was fussing Regret the white lies, now can you really trust me Regret the moments I ain't cherish back with us three Shit Or back with us But imma do it better now, hope you can trust So fuck my greed, and fuck my pride, and fuck my lust I wanna be the me I was 'for he was crushed You had your head on a swivel Waiting for life's unapproval One day one day you'll see You don't need no love but your love Your love Used to think my life was a mistake and a Calamity I been working hard to get this money for my family Seat up at the top is where a nigga always planned to be Making it past all the tribulations Satin handin me And learned forgiveness I learned forgiveness for myself I learned people was around that actually cared bout how I felt I ain't learned to take off time but least I care about my health Learned the answer to the questions momma asked when I was twelve Your son is young, black, an educated Fully melanated Head and shoulder bove the clouds so now I'm fully elevated Black and Wunderful you called me, so this albums dedicated Said there's one day out of 365 that I'm celebrating April 20th, 1975, the day you arrived The first tattoo I got in my life I always look down to my wrist when I feel pain or feel strife And then I look up to the sky and know it's gon' be alright Yeah You had your head on a swivel Waiting for life's unapproval One day one day you'll see You don't need no love but your love Your love White clouds in your brown eyes Brown skin in the sunshine And the water feels just right U were made to touch the sky u were made to fly And the roots down under call to you They say "face the world in front of you" "We gon hold you tight" You got it you got it You got it you got it Telephone ring, ring, ring Hey Aaron it's your mom Calling to let you know how proud I am of you Every time you are on the way to the studio Or in the studio And um I'm just so proud Of, how you are so focused To do what you love Shackled by his feet and hands No village, no image, what it means to be a man Another being half goddess half human The healer, the holy, the sacred Black Woman Blessed to be the chosen one to bear children Sold as slaves across waves of ruin I wanna see the rise of true Black family Oozing with the tools to be all we can be Have you ever wondered of a God given place? Where we don't have to hide the pride of our race? Led to the mountain top like Moses Sittin on thrones at home covered in roses I wanna sit like kings and queens with wings And fly to bigger and better and brighter things Too, you think you got it?
