najee janey - war raw lyrics

[verse 1]
it was mothers day, fam and i, all at the table
my momma at the head, my uncle next to her
i’m in the corner closest to the door listening, commotion like excited priests in a church after a christening
still here listening, hoping they don’t call for my input
i might say some things that have been heavy on my brain
i’m just saying
tv on which was nothing to lean up on, cnn is doing their best scaring the us
really who they’re scaring is scary, all unnecessary
just to be legendary
they got my uncle sh+tting bricks, missing trips
sleeping less, causing stress
he’s worried that they’re gonna call me next
p+sses me off he let the television get to him, i wish i could just pick him up and take him to his happy place
he asked what would i do if a kernel came knocking at my door, telling me to join a war in which i’m forced to not ignore
that’s such a good question unc, you know me i can smell the funk
i’d probably do a double+take, laugh right in his face
he’s sprinting in a race where his life is at stake
i cherish mine and you, poisonous
you expect me to snap out of my zen just to throw
yourself in that den
try to speed the world’s end you’ll see who’s really
in control but before we take that road
there are some things you gotta know

[hook]
it’s getting too warm outside, sea level is rising
the food’s going bad, your body’s slowly dying
so what’s war to a brother that ain’t scared
i see the signs all the time i’m prepared
so what you gon do, what you gon do, what you gon do
sugar what you gon do
i’m fina shoot back, or get rolled on
i’m fina shoot back or get rolled on
i’m fina shoot back, fina shoot back, fina shoot back
fina shoot back, i said i’m finna shoot back
fina shoot back
[verse 2]
so what you bringing to the world brother, whose side are you on?
are you fighting for the people, land, or the man with his hands
sh+t i’m on my own side, watching my own back
if you blood then we good
ain’t no friend in enemy, there’s no worrying either
i don’t move in fear my friend
are you at the boiling point with me
it took ages and ages of learning to count
to the very first time that we learned to pounce to the direct moment, we were taught to talk
there has never been peace on this earth we walk
i’m in the middle of it all and i want no parts
had to shave my head ball so i couldn’t pull from it
subconsciously it hurts, but that’s what i stomach, is this all happening all around me to strengthen my spirit
i would like to know the sky is up to my high
is sp+ce the only place we feel safe to die
even if that’s fair, that’s not my trip to fly, i got find my ‘finess+m+nts’
i’m already a part of the system, they clockin’ us down
bomb is ticking
some tvs have a camera in it watching us listen
this era of technology is so d+mn crippling
i’m not gonna let this get to me, and anything else
or anything more
so if i came knocking at your door with a clipboard
grabbing your sons and all daughters so they can join this war
would you do it?
would you take it? here’s some money for your child’s graduation
if we win i got a job here waiting
don’t worry if we lose cuz we part of god’s nation
warriors get ready, everyone to their stations, get the tanks ready, get your spirit ready
it’s going down yall if it’s going down, if you didn’t fear god you should fear him now
