At some point, whether or not black folks
|
Should use the word or a derivation of the word
|
Ending in "a" - that's a black conversation
|
And white folks, anybody who isn't black
|
Should stay out of that conversation
|
For us, there's a history, there's a context
|
I've heard white people say "we're gonna help em
|
Reclaim the word!" if you want to fight racism
|
Raid a police station...
|
|
Everybody in my city pushing keys and that's all these kids see
|
That's the only thing they hear and that's
|
The only thing they'll be, we call it: "swag, swag, swag"
|
The homies is busting slugs, the women is shaking ass
|
The white girls call us "nigga" and
|
We just sit back and laugh and call it "swag, swag, swag"
|
I am no preacher, bitch I'm a teacher
|
More like a thinker, dreamer, believer-pick one
|
A thousand albums came out last year and I ain't get one
|
Cause these boys looking like man-tan
|
I make hits like grand sam
|
Never had a problem keeping up
|
These boys songs sound weird as fuck
|
I ain't thinking about easing up, I'm going hard
|
Til my lease is up and my time will be peaking up
|
It's only right that I tell her
|
Don't buy into everything that these rappers are selling
|
Thinking that they winning, but really
|
These niggas failing the people
|
And feeding evil to the streets that made you
|
Raised you on great food, my mama ain't raised no dummy
|
Her never let a muthafucka take from me
|
?
|
Hit the game harder than some?
|
|
Everybody in my city pushing keys and that's all these kids see
|
That's the only thing they hear and that's
|
The only thing they'll be, we call it: "swag, swag, swag"
|
The homies is busting slugs, the women is shaking ass
|
The white girls call us "nigga" and
|
We just sit back and laugh and call it "swag, swag, swag"
|
|
Is anybody on the next level with me?
|
I'm hearing niggas dissing god, y'all think it's witty
|
I ain't laughing, we don't play in mississippi
|
When I was broke, selling my soul wasn't tempting
|
