So typical
20 years later young negus in the making
Listening to Jamaican artists telling me
About this black history
Scars on my back tell a deeper story
Slaving every day is mandatory

Now hear me when I say
This story is older than
The first century
Now hear me when I say
This story is older than
The first century

Now hear me when I say

The first century
Now hear me when I say

I got nothing to lose mind stuck in a noose
The weed and booze got me popping a few
So I’m confused for a rapper with no calls
The only conscious rapper with a get money clause
You just a shark with no jaws, yeah
I’m like a diamond with no flaws
When you got nothing in the world and the world is all yours
I mean just think about it I’mma need a shrink about it
Cause my mind is running like a prison with no guards
And I’m so hot compare me to the sun, my money motivation
My music is my gun, my competition is evil like the twin minus of plus signs
Tryna be a hero you get a face full of shoe signs
I don’t have the patience
I hurt you in 20 places
All my cars I reverse them all your rights I erase them
All my uh
And my curses are offensive drive these girls crazy though I carry a defensive licence
Like ISIS I’m blowing up in silence
We like this, they fighting
I’m flowing I’m slighting
Tell me what you wan’ do
I’ll tell you what we gon’ do
This M Rich this what we ‘bout to do

Now hear me when I say
This story is older than
The first century
Now hear me when I say

Now hear me when I say
This story is older than

Now hear me when I say

Lord gave me a staff I’m Moses to his people
We’re riding like slaves but we’re 20 centuries ahead
The cradle of mankind but we’re not kings
I glow in the dark this dark knight is the power of the universe
We always prophesy about these lamentations
The shackles gobbled up the competition
Nominated opposition, but look at their position
They’re floating way higher
They poisoned out messiah
But we’re not paralyzed we won't be justified
The revolution is fueled by malice
He’s drinking from the chalice stomach full of bread resting on that candy mountain
Ah woe woe war
Now hear mi seh
Spiritual roots are manifested by my halo I pity my people
This shade of melanin attracts a lot of suffering
That’s why we living in cages cause white supremacists hate us
They don’t have a reason not to keep our minds imprisoned
We’re living in the belly of the beast our souls are not at peace
And so we need to march on start a rebellion get Nelson on the phone
(Black people like things gon’ change)
(A hundred years later things still the same bruh)
