[00:00.19]And to me, we have a culture that,
[00:03.13]Uh, is surpassed by, by, by, by no other civilization,
[00:07.42]But we don't know anything about it.
[00:08.70]So again, I think I've said this before in this same interview
[00:12.38]I think, my, my job is to somehow make them curious enough
[00:18.28]Or persuade them by hook or crook
[00:22.05]To get more aware of themselves and where they came from
[00:25.88]And what they are into and what is already there
[00:28.29]And just to bring it out.
[00:29.55]This is what compels me to compel them
[00:33.34]And I will do it by whatever means necessary.
[00:36.18]Detroit red flow
[00:38.35]East coast, west coast
[00:39.87]Used to leave MoCo to hit Ledroit with Bo
[00:42.95]I dated women with poppin’ albums, they got spouses
[00:46.40]I dated strippers that trap loud inside they Challengers
[00:49.56]To be black and talented, all I've ever been
[00:52.62]Took a tour de France while my partners was somewhere peddling
[00:55.41]Yeah, we make depression look so effortless
[00:58.41]We desensitize while America tryna kill our kids
[01:01.47]So it's weighin' on me, Nina
[01:03.05]It's weighin' on me, Nina
[01:04.57]They playin' with me, Nina
[01:06.02]Send 'em on they way to meet ya
[01:07.69]Look at my skin, look at my nose, I'm grateful for my features
[01:10.77]Like I made a CD with Mrs. Knowles and ain't pay a G
[01:13.91]I'm on my way to GA, magazine in the BM
[01:16.37]Imagine the ****s see me, a MAGA hat he can bleed in
[01:19.55]Nina, we just wanna be black and legendary
[01:22.60]Be us and be proud by any means necessary
[01:25.75]Nina got me feeling like I never have to walk alone
[01:34.68]Walk alone, Nina
[01:38.49]Nina got me feeling like I never have to walk alone
[01:46.07]Walk alone, Nina
[01:50.41]They playin' with me, Nina
[01:52.12]You stayin' with me, Nina
[01:53.55]They hatin' on me, Nina
[01:55.09]Send 'em on they way to meet ya
[01:56.68]I misunderstood
[01:58.14]Under your spell, perhaps
[01:59.67]Ain't no lookin' back
[02:01.06]Young, gifted, black
[02:03.05]Everybody avoids everybody, all over the place
[02:08.62]In most situations, most all of the time
[02:11.32]I know, I'm one of those everybodys
[02:14.06]Yeah, a semi automatic
[02:17.81]A scatterbrain, I'm shooting out of aim
[02:20.10]Since I've been famous, it's hard for me to hit up a target
[02:22.57]I'm sorry, I was humble on all them red carpets
[02:25.87]I got embarrassed, GRAMMYs carried me for Sandra Bullock
[02:28.69]Photo ops the paparazzi was opting out of
[02:31.69]Was doing drops for jockeys that ain't bother my album
[02:34.59]Telling me you honestly the best *****
[02:37.63]Though I believe that you one welling-ass *****
[02:40.51]How many *****s with jobs feel like they underpaid?
[02:43.41]Let's say it's that, plus you rhyme and 'bout to have a baby
[02:46.43]Let's say they calling you bipolar
[02:48.17]Not feeling you, your rhymes legend, but personality complicated
[02:52.26]Shoot at whoever, that's your only defense
[02:55.27]Had a job, you was poppin', now you lonely as ****
[02:58.27]Mental blocks, every shot was harder than before
[03:01.35]Like bootleg shoppers, see, I was rockin' my label wrong
[03:04.22]But I digress 'cause this isn't that song
[03:07.39]This just my plight, I am no different than y'all
[03:10.30]Speak to your boss, me, I speak in these songs
[03:13.23]I speak how I feel, I feel like a gun
[03:16.15]Yeah, a semi auto with a novice aim, uh
[03:19.85]A lot of thoughts and a lot of pain, yeah
[03:22.74]My ammunition come from all your hate
[03:25.05]My brain a loaded semi, I'm too offended to concentrate, yeah
[03:28.74]Everybody gets sprayed, *****
[03:31.38]Ayy, move, get out the way, *****, yeah
[03:34.80]Under the surface, we the same *****
[03:36.85]But my aim different, I'm way too brilliant to shank *****s, yeah
[03:40.74]Everybody gets sprayed, *****
[03:43.03]Move, get out the way, *****, yeah
[03:46.65]Under the surface, we the same *****
[03:48.77]I got that loaded semi that stain cement and paint pictures
