Lyrics

Guess who's back brother? Can you dig it sucka
Aye it's all butter; Wait, did I stutter?
Jesus did weep and yes he did suffer!
Better run for cover, I be the feather plucker
Who am I? That brown skin boi smooth talking type
Take off ya pump under the table and see what ya reaction like
Cause if ya lemme rub ya feet, so discrete, with mystique, I'm on your calendar for weeks!
Certain privileges were missed by the color of my skin
But my mind and my grind, plus my talent got me in
Don't do it for the income, do it for the outcome!
Degrees, PhD's you can still get on without one!
Some of our ancestors jumped, some of them stayed on the boat
Imma make this quick point off that Killmonger quote
And had all of them died, there's no you there's no I
There's no Rosa, no Malcolm, Dr. King or T.I!
Folks that had us in mind when they tried and they tried
For us to have what we have, they had to lie, run and hide
Taking their babies away, mothers cried and they cried
Took their manhood in front of their families outside
I can't make excuses knowing that they went through all that
Ran to read, got caught, beat and had to crawl back
Here we are a bunch of big dummies on our smartphones
Bad credit, bunch of debt and some awful car loans!
Meanwhile we look like we got it, our bank account on copper
You can cough up blood and still won't go to the doctor
You can look at the killer and still don't know who shot ya
Didn't wanna snitch, body bag zipped, carried by six
I keep my clip, clip, clip, gun go, boom, boom, click
Never did like violence, but better to have it and never need it
Than to need it and never have it, all of these shootings tragic
Enough of being reactive! Be aggressive and proactive!
Family first, man the rest can thirst
It's for better ain't no worse, we gone break the curse!
I'm talking ownership and land, put the future first
And no more fronting anything 'cause we came with work
Meanwhile, I'm crunching all the numbers, I'm counting all the cash
When your Ubers outside the only time you'll ever see a car dash
Had some Kourtney's, Kim's, no Khloe's it's okay kay kay
I saw so much white, don't mean kkk
Three strikes no hesitation, see that's the complication
There ain't no reparations, that went to reservations
I feel like segregation strengthened our preservation
Where's the black delegation to help our restoration
You love your occupation with no self-education
I'll make this proclamation, you make your observation
I told y'all it's one nation, peek at this elevation
There's no deactivation, brace for this detonation!
Master of my craft, still work on it daily
If ya good at something, tell them folks ya gotta pay me!
And if David can go against Goliath with a stone
I can go at K dot, Cole and Drake and takeover the throne!
Who you roll with? Who you roll with
Who you roll with? Who you roll with
Represent! Represent
Represent family! Represent
Who you roll with? Who you roll with
Who you roll with? Who you roll with
Represent! Represent
Represent kinfolk! Represent
