This song is very close and dear to my heart, man To be able to say something like this It takes a hella m**********r to say it This song is deticated to all my people It's called "Message To The Black Man"
My people you 'posed to be But my people ain't somthin' that I see Cuz ain't enough of you at my shows We've been all over the globe But y'all ain't spendin it My people you 'posed to be But my people ain't somthin' that I see Cuz ain't enough of you up on my records Y'all don't know that I'm about to become boss
It started on the slave shift If field ****s would eventually take the day shift With house ****s inside loyalty may shift And it did divide us now we still need a race lift F**k a face lift I ain't changin my identity For energy from any that's obscenity Now in 2000 and 7 we sick and ain't no remedy Jealousy envy and murderous like you ain't no kin to me Guess we ain't ***a we go hard in tha paint ***a Still when you see me out you ain't the one who faint ***a It's them other mans from them other lands They listen to me more than my sister and brother man I could see if I was a wack mother-f****r Bitchin about the way that my people act mother-f****r But I do spit my people don't be so fuckin reclusive Get off your lazy a** like you know somthin about music
My people you 'posed to be But my people ain't somthin' that I see Cuz ain't enough of you at my shows We've been all over the globe But y'all ain't spendin it My people you 'posed to be But my people ain't somthin' that I see Cuz ain't enough of you up on my records
You cry about the way I paint my face It ain't y'all taste little homie let me state my case I'm not a devil; a dam jester rumors can fester Never lift up a demon with an image of my ancestors African act like you see me when you be traffickin Laughter when you frowned up at me your hatred is bafflin You watch American Idol my people my paints is tribal It symbolizes not evil but the will instilled survival You ****s be so tuff the moment we roll up Your upper lip rolled up you hatin me so what Everyone knows us my city is sold up My shows crush but y'all don't show up They say it's more than money b*****s whores It's funny this is war my people at his door And I'm knockin meanwhile we rockin Globally and it's sad man
