Lyrics
Yo, who lied and said I am
Step to this and get these fifty-something-year-old hands
I'll put 'em on ya - brother I am sick and no it's not with no pneumonia
No it's not no COVID or no strain of the corona
No it's not the Crohn's, that's a bogus diagnosis
Fed a line of bullshit - dietary focused
Immuno-suppression my intestine go corrosive
GMO's ingested 'cause I guess they couldn't grow shit
Fore the farmers sold to corporate ownership
Field fail to yield; CEO go home with bonuses
Sharecroppers gotta get a loan - oh here we go again
Back up on the tractor with a hatchet and a hoe, bitch
No it don't quit - all my folkers know is this
Stewards of the land North of Eden, where the snow's thick
Dig through the drifts just to throw feed and shovel shit
That's a backwards hustle; take a bad debt and double it, uh
Tobacco planters never learned to manage money
Just to hold a hand out, take advantage of a subsidy
From 'Bama to Virginia, Kansas and Kentucky
This America The Beautiful is truly fucking ugly
It's ugly
It's ugly
It's ugly
America The Beautiful is truly fucking ugly
It's ugly
America The Beaut shit, fuck
If you're trying to get by and do the best you can
To earn a dollar lemme hear you holler: YES I AM
If you humble and behaving like a guest of this land
In respect of the ancestors? Say: YES I AM
Be you bisex, gay, lez, queer, or trans
Am I here for your protection? HELL YES I AM
It may never take place over my lifespan, but
Am I sure the change is coming, cousin? YES I AM
I could never recognize the whack shit
Doesn't matter if they bubble in the cut or getting a bag
Something about this kid, could route this biz
Could finally amount to some shit, with or without that vid
Yo check it, America the beautiful is looking foolish
Class of the rulership's poly theatre for the viewership
But who's to think? Living the tutelage of consumers
The humor's often ruined, reduce 'em to call 'em boomers...okay
Knowledge and wisdom is universal
But it takes some maturation to move us into the future
That's not to say the youth is, completely fucked up and useless
If only a little ruthless from being born with these bruises
I get it, cause I was born with them things too
And man I let it, fuck around with my head too
And if you wanna keep going down that path? That's cool
Just know that wrath ain't ever gonna be brining you back that truth
Yeah, it's brining you back that truth
Just know that wrath ain't ever gonna bring you back that truth
It's brining you back that truth
It's brining you back that truth
Just know that wrath ain't ever gonna bring you back that truth
If you're trying to get by and do the best you can
To earn a dollar lemme hear you holler: YES I AM
If you humble and behaving like a guest of this land
In respect of the ancestors? Say: YES I AM
Be you bisex, gay, lez, queer, or trans
Am I here for your protection? HELL YES I AM
It may never take place over my lifespan, but
Am I sure the change is coming, cousin? YES I AM
