Kanye - Never Let You Down
I get down for my grandfather who took my momma Made her sit that seat where white folks ain't want us to eat At the tender age of 6 she was arrested for the sit in With that in my blood I was born to be different Now niggas can't make it to ballots to choose leadership But we can make it to Jacob and to the dealership That's why I hear new music And I just don't be feeling it Racism still alive they just be concealing it But I know they don't want me in the damn club They even made me show I.D. to get inside of Sam's club I did dirt and went to church to get my hands scrubbed Swear I've been baptised at least 3 or 4 times But in the land where niggas praise Yukons and getting paid It gon' take a lot more than coupons to get us saved Like it take a lot more than do-rags to get your waves Nothing sadder than that day my girl father passed away So I promised to Mr Rany I'm gonna marry your daughter And you know I gotta thank you for they way that she was brought up And I know that you were smiling when you see that car I bought her And you sent tears from heaven when you seen my car get balled up But I can't complain what the accident did to my Left Eye 'cause look what an accident did to Left Eye First Aaliyah and now Romeo must die I know I got angels watching me from the other side Jay Electronica - Better In Tune W/ The Infinite It's frustratin' when you just can't express yourself And it's hard to trust enough to undress yourself To stand exposed and naked, in a world full of hatred Where the sick thoughts of mankind control all the sacred I pause, take a step back, record all the setbacks Fast forward towards the stars in the jetpack My feet might fail me, my heart might ail me The synagogues of Satan might accuse or jail me Strip, crown, nail me, brimstone hail me They might defeat the flesh but they could never ever kill me They might can feel the music but could never ever feel me To the lawyers, to the sheriffs, to the judges To the debt holders and the law makers Fuck you, sue me, bill me That name on that birth certificate, that ain't the real me The lies can't conceal me The sun rise and the moon tides and the sky's gon' reveal me My brain pours water out my tear ducts to heal me My Lord's too beneficent The message grab a hold to every ear it get whispered in The waters in the bayous of New Orleans still glistenin' The universe is listenin', be careful what you say in it My grandma told me every bed a nigga make, he lay in it The church you go to pray in it, the work is on the outside Staring out the windows is for love songs and house flies
