about

This is the 2nd single from the upcoming project, "The Answer" - a conscious turn up anthem for 2021. This track will resonate from the streets to anywhere we are....if riots are the language of the unheard, this is the soundtrack.

Hook
2 Black, 2 Strong, 2 Lit - c’mon (x4)

:45

It’s a vibe for the Kings & the Queens tho/
cause the only thing free been a free throw/
and these fools talking to us like we seem slow/talking to my Pops like don’t make me get the beam tho/vengeance belong to the Lord/paid lawyers for this justice we just can’t afford/rest assured/only 2 things devils respect - paper or the sword/ain’t a killer but don’t push me/hurt the fam don’t know what it could be/built from the mud, don’t know what it took me/think it’s bad now don’t make us get pushy/understand, we built civilization/didn’t even want to & built the biggest nation/we the culture, we the inspiration/plus we the muscle, this the coronation/Black women been the backbone/they deserve more than a crown, they the capstone/simple facts known/
without respect for the Queens, little boy you can’t act grown/but my brothers in the struggle got they heads high like Beanie Man in first class/the first clash/between us & the law was not won/but we know it ain’t fun when the rabbit got a gun/don’t condone violence, check the environment/state been supplying it, everyone denying it/pressure we applying it, lies we not buying it/shed blood in the streets, scribe who’s describing it/who u vibing with? Us or the other side/check how he dap, we ain’t letting undercovers slide/this ain’t the 60’s, don’t need coin to tell a pro to let em go/we still grilling pig bro/ain’t vegan yet/got hands on deck/the real connect/life over death/(4x)

Hook


2:45

2020 been trip tho/one thing I learned, ain’t got no time to tiptoe/grab what you want - take heed, seize what you need/no permission - in ya veins reside currency/
what the ancestors bled for, we claim tenfold/Black lives a monument to the monumental/ purge any thoughts of unworthiness/fly high prepare for the turbulence/we screaming “Defund the police”/Been murdered by the state since Cornbread & Cochise/and well before that, slave catchers on horseback/why u think they got horses - it ain’t for the look scrap/killed or got took back/recognize they died for pawns to beat the rook trap/so u can’t live shook of the jux facts/push on, with God’s strength don’t look back/ain’t vegan yet/got hands on deck/the real connect/life over death/(2x)
