‘Cause I move to strong
And I know what my feet move for (Let the sunshine in)
Made it go without a brand new car
Made it fresh without a brand new song
And give a fuck about what brand you are (The suns shining’)
I’m concerned what type of man you are
What your principles and standards are
You understand me y’all
Be good to your family y’all
No matter where your families are
‘Cause everybody needs family y’all
Raise a hand, you understand me y’all
Everybody needs family y’all

He’s my favorite rapper and im BLACK!

(Huh) My grandmomma was raised on a reservation
(Huh) My great-grandmomma was, from a plantation
They sang – songs for inspiration
They sang – songs for relaxation
They sang – songs, to take their minds up off that
fucked up situation
I am… yes I am… the descendant (yes yes)
of those folks whose, backs got broke
who, fell down inside the gunsmoke
(Black people!) Chains on they ankles and feet
I am descendants, of the builders of your street
(Black people!) Tenders to your cotton money
I am.. hip-hop
“It’s heavy metal for the black people”
I am.. rock and roll (rock and roll.. rock’n'roll)
BEEN HERE FOREVER!
They just ain’t let you know.. (HA!)

I said, Elvis Presley ain’t got no soul (huh)
Chuck Berry is rock and roll (damn right)
You may dig on the Rolling Stones
But they ain’t come up with that style on they own (uh-uh)
Elvis Presley ain’t got no SOULLLL (hell naw)
Little Richard is rock and roll (damn right)
You may dig on the Rolling Stones
But they ain’t come up with that shit on they own (nah-ah)
