bigomuziq – gentrified lyrics

Loading...

they take out their loans
purchase our homes
kick out my folks
jack up the costs
paint al the doors
now it’s all ghosts

black is just bedtime
now we don’t mesh right
they cooked out the yolk
left out the soul
now it’s all egg whites
(see it my way)

you like the headlines
pics for your website
i drive a honda ride with my momma
a victim of redlines

pen by my bedside
why?
sleep it don’t rest right
i work a 9 to 5 then 5 to 9
survive a life confined behind
a fence of lies that you let slide

gentrified and they know it ain’t right
colonized and they know i can’t fight
but f-ck dollar signs
cuz’ they know there ain’t price
that i would ever sign tryna’ say i can’t write

why they get theirs?
you get more
they all scared
they make sure
all my fares
can’t afford
it ain’t fair
pay your costs
you can’t take
what is mine
it ain’t yours

this is mine
not yours
this is my home
this is mine
not yours
i just want a place
to call my own

own
own
put down your phones
stop all your movies
bring down your drones
take all your groupies
take all your clones
and move back to boonies
back to your zones
let me just do me
leave me alone
no you can’t use me
lead me along
no you can’t fool me
fibs in your songs
pardon my rude streak
nice is too hard cuz’

light skin complexion
means white kids protected
while dark sin complexion
means dark kids arrested
once making records
in their adolescence
now they got records
criminal perspective

what am i to do?
i’m just a kid from private school
got a flow that’s fire smooth
and i know its kinda’ cruel
i was raised on silver spoons
you don’t got my kind of tools
you ain’t gotta learn from me
see i’m tryna’ learn from you

mic check
check test testify set me free
black white east west
africa 7 seas
from the 248 to 313
to 213 to middle east
all i’m trying to do is
speak!
