Masterminds - Day One lyrics
[Oracle] Ey Yo I'm slippin down a dark hole touchin my soul Think I'm rushin to the stars flash forward to zones Can't move a single bone so I let out a moan Would burn every single poem I wrote just to reach home Feel a rope around my neck tight wrip grip no slack then I hear a whipe make a loud crack Then feel the flesh on my back split allowing blood to drip to the floor Then I hear a whole crowd roar With my last bit of strength open my eyes To see a pack of rednecks straight from 1905 Could tell by the clothes thery wore and their broken grammar That I was the main event of a lynching in Alabama My body started shaking stamina breaking down I screamed take me down they started laughing like clowns I wish I had a 4 pound or any automatic gun Just to see them crackers run like Satan had come Then I heard the sheriff say "Hey, bring me his son." Now picture that want my little boy to see his Daddy get hung Then the sheriff turned to me and said "Ain't this fun? Well this is what you get for florting with a white woman" [Chorus] 2x Ey yo from day one you see they try to take us under Police with guns, and clans hanging us from lumber the shit don't change no matter the time no matter the place it all stays the same [Kimani] 1963 and now I'm trapped in a Birmingham jail Next door to King sitting hand cuffed to the rail I sailed through 3 generations of time but same predicament Cause now I'm deep in the thick of it, sick of I started downtown shopping at Montgomery Wards Where my mom sent me to buy a new ironing board >From down on Main Street, trooping through the summertime heat Sweating bullets, came to the colored door and I pull it Seen this white girl in late teens, blond |
