America
I love you
Even after everything you put my blood through
Every descendant of a slave oughta cuss you
Throw a middle finger up and say...
America
My love's true
Even after everything you put my blood through
Every descendant of a slave oughta cut you
Pull out an AK and spray
But that ain't love
And on this long road to perdition
You might wanna use my navigation system
My wisdom
Shine light through this black prism
My rhythm
Let it guide you through baptism
Word to Shirley Chisolm
I'm truly tryna blaze trails
Write back senders of the hate mail
That keeps comin'
Caged bird still singing
Chain gang still drummin'
100 miles and we still runnin
400 years
Gimme a pound of Bob Marley
American flags strapped to the back of black Harleys
And if we burn you down it's to begin anew
Let's pull the sheet off of our history and bid adieu
America
I love you
Even after everything you put my blood through
Every descendant of a slave oughta cuss you
Throw a middle finger up and say...
America
My love's true
Even after everything you put my blood through
Every descendant of a slave oughta cut you
Pull out an AK and spray
But that ain't love
Banner in the sky
The U.S is alive
Everything before it absorb it or let it die
Daughter of four fathers no momma to get it right
Raised and became a beauty with something ugly inside
Growing up abused with bruises of different hues
Read white lies now our lady sings the blues
Over C notes
While we broke
And see votes
For people both villain and hero
Competing stroking her ego
That talk the talk come time to walk do absolutely zero
Cheer us on the court but when it's foul we ge no free throw
But we go hard off hope and for the love
With All my heart still covered in blood
Like
A beauty from the heavens up above
But hold her tight you 'bout to see close up
Past smooth skin you'll find something so rough
Can we keep her true?
I don't know what to do
And she don't either
Red, white, blues
Red, white, blues
Red, white and blues
