(Call it like it is) alright

Y'all done turned this culture trash, these so-called legends ain't no legends
I don't care if they sold millions, are you hearin' their message?
Poisonin' our whole community, everybody hypnotized
Why you think nobody respect black people? No big surprise
(Call it like it is) and I love New Orleans, my city
But I love God way more, I don't care if none of y'all with me
We celebrate bein' stupid and everybody so gangster
But when you clockin' for that white man, you be on your best behavior, hold up
(Call it like it is) Yeah, most of the media people laugh
Y'all was never really, really cool before you got inside this here game
Instigating, y'all bein' messy, you ain't helping nobody grow
Tell Joe Budden I'm on a mission, so don't butt in, Joe
Man, I'm gon' (Call it like it is), no, it ain't no pressure on me
I'm applyin' the pressure, I'm powered by G-O-D
And we gon' be alright, that's what Kendrick Lamar said
And in the words of Lil Wayne, the sky is the limit, yeah

So call it like it is (is) and call it what it ain't (ain't)

Y'all boys claim to be some soldiers
But you soldiers ain't no soldiers, man
I told you and I showed you, I'm a soldier for life
Stop playin' dumb, it's good versus evil, it's only two sides
Class in session, y'all need to attend, just like my shoe size
Murder music hit different when somebody in my crew died
The biggest gangsters in rap got blonde hair 'n' blue eyes
We gettin' pimp, what y'all wanna do, guys?
Your new single just dropped? (Yeah) time to entertain us with new lies
Whoever said I'm canceled, man, I'm laughing in these people's face
I work for God, dummy, my impact could never be erased
Tell America, I'm the same brother I used to be
Before y'all was introduced to me, consistency ain't new to me
(So call it like it is) y'all just sold us all with your coonery
And that dollar bill got y'all whipped, that's dead, man, it's the eulogy
And whoever said what they gon' do to me?
Man, I hit your whole block up with prayers, man, y'all ain't used to me

The beat finished? Loop that thing back
