The Message

They used to put it in a bottle And let the river carry it over And sometimes they would attach it to a bird And let it fly away But something was always clear There's always a message Got a call from my Cousin but not Demarcus So much going on in my life feels like a ruckus (Uncle Ruckus) Not my Uncle though Ayo in motion YES Can you stop him NO Blossom like a flower (flour) though (dough) I am awesome like a Navaho Fighting for freedom in droves Hope for peace like doves But ready for war with you whores Y'all loud but I move in Omerta Last night was with a dime but parking only cost me a quarter Buff like a manicure Kick flows like a pedicure Vaccine we need a cure Sketching punch-lines I draw blood Not Puerto Rican still Young Lord Tsunami your timelines you got flood What's fish to sharks you're just cod Nigerian nightmare dreams my God! Oh my Oh my God Oh my Oh my God Uhn! Oh my Oh my God Oh my Oh my God Uhn! Oh my Oh my God Oh my Oh my God Uhn! Oh my Oh my God Oh my Oh my God Uhn! Not here to preach like a pastor Oil and water don't mix like castor But privilege aligns with wealth Society prioritizes the well-being of the rich and their health In a global pandemic they were first to be tested Stimulus shows where the governments interests are invested People are dying, their families are crying Trump we know is lying and some of us aren't buying Press briefings shaped by running us in circles The truth can't stand up like it's broken up in ankles Daily calls from my parents in Lagos Reminds me of all the love that they gave us I carry that with me like I am beast mode Where I am from the game has no cheat code This message got Feds on me like RICO But am an artist who speaks for the people I am an artist who speaks for the people I am an artist who speaks for the people THE MESSAGE!
