prox centauri - claud lyrics

[intro: claud anderson]
where have you changed?
you don’t own anything, you’re still in prison, still working for other people
you’re enjoying a social illusion
now you’re fat and happy because we can go to someone else’s restaurant
we can go to someone else’s school
we can go to someone else’s hotel
we can live in someone else’s community
and we don’t understand the negative aspects of that

[verse]
audio amphetamine doctored it, you can have a taste
hitching it to my erudition that ghetto macrame
mellow highs so i surmise that they are probably back to stay
splendid by nature i don’t emulate or practice grace
magician with my diction never misdirect, no slight of hand
though they bare witness rather disrespect the righteous man
with specific plans on the verge of imminent advance
no neiman’s though, splurge or spend with independent brands
fetti flows free if you care to find the faucet
but they’ll shut it off until we start to err on side of caution
making prosecutors mad giving em less caseloads
with automated affluence jacked it from jeff bezos
renewed waves in motion, violent missions stopping here
true gangstas interrupt the private prison profiteers
strap caches dropping in hoods is a conundrum
we’re preoccupied with glocks and nines, but where’d those guns come from?

[bridge: claud anderson]
you play as team, or you’ll lose by default
and only with black folk do people get upset
when black folks start talking about coming together
and uniting, and working together, and cooperating together
buying from each other and supporting each other

[hook]
stack while you can as it gets worse for citizens
today’s a good day they just disbursed my dividends
you kiddies playin hopscotch but your block’s watching
take off them bust downs, trade em for stock options
walking round these stomping grounds, mean to relieve the stress we suffer
monochrome schemes but now we’re dreaming in technicolor
sovereignty, inkling of thinking can cause manumit
powernomics profit we jocked it from claud anderson

[bridge: claud anderson]
everybody understands, you come together and unify
that signifies strength and right now
everybody right now is pimping and hustling black folks
they’ve been pimping and hustling black folks for four or five hundred years

[verse]
ethnically, rinsing the nation through gentrification
now i’m pensively pacing as entropy’s waiting
tryna carve out a niche between the scylla and charybdis
but the choice don’t feel as real until its business or statistic
plus this food for thought and the main course is succulent
but the youth is lost, fed the same sorts of sustenance
if you have a conscious that’s nonsense or heresy
wealth’s the real entree that moncler’s aperitif
hustling, its back to streets until we get the factories
the dope game outmoded this is gnosis that i’m trafficking
greed is the status that avarice could probably pull me towards
forget the necklaces, i’m invested in copping jewelry stores
i crave residuals, precious proficiency
wisened up, hunting that economic mobility
time to harvest fruits of labor finally has come to p-ss
the shackles, rules, aren’t practical, done being an undercl-ss

[outro: claud anderson]
its when you start talk about unifying black folk, that’s a threat
they’ll say “you’re going to cut off your money from us?
we’re living off of two incomes, you’re going to reduce us down to one income?”
that’s a threat to them
also, its a threat when you start talking about unifying blacks and
looking out for your own people
that means the political possibly of uniting as a political force in this country
which n-body wants to see, that’s a threat
