A Spade Is a Spade Lyrics

A spade is a spade nigga

Gotta call it

Serve niggas continuous Like sets of tennis

It's that every line's Ambiguous, could use in Many instances

Melanated man gettin' Drenched in the trenches

If not you strange fruit

They came to see the Lynchings

The pictures showed

Who witnessed it

And thought it was a show, They even brought the kids And told them not to look Away

And lo

Another black body Swingin' picked at by the Crows that were flyin' up Above

Cause they already know The type of shit that goes Down

The grand wizard cuts em' Down

Specific trees are picked for Some ritual shit

Hollywood branched off From what was seen

In the ghettos

Far from ya clean suburban Meadows

Where the poverty and lack Of jobs and education made It hard

All you had was family

And that bible god

Then came

Noble Drew Ali and Farrad

Freedom fighters

King and X

They all stood for a cause

Sadistic cults and triple K Leaders gave us the Creepers

The Black Panthers said Fuck that, our people need Us

The CIA said hell nah this Can't happen

Continued the Assassinations when we Started rappin

Now it's 2025

Lucky you still alive

This apocalypse radio

Nothin' could compare to Flows that spit that real life

I'm all in your face with the Mic

Watchin' you shrink

To the size of a pint

You got to call

A spade a spade

You got to call

A spade a spade

Culture vulture observatin

Covert operations

You got to call

A spade a spade

You got to call

A spade a spade

Yo

I turn your platform into a Foundation for this hip hop Nation

Need to wake up

Come get your third eye Dilation

Really the first

A gift and a curse

I can see through the Fuckin' matrix

But the truth hurts

The gift can't be reversed

You can't unsee what you Once wanted to see

Every superhero as a kid You wanted to be

The people need you

The stage is set for the Battle

Good versus evil

Hollow hearts I see through

I'm Malcolm X standin' in Front of the Giza pyramid

White shroud comin' back To meet you

It's like that Salvation rap

Nah just a little mental Medicine

Sparkin' that light like Thomas Edison

From waves to particles

I form dimensions in Rhymes you imagine Subjectively

A sign you will find

Hidden gnosis in my recipe

Culture vulture observatin

Covert operations

You got to call

A spade a spade

You got to call

A spade a spade

Culture vulture observatin

Covert operations

You got to call

A spade a spade

You got to call

A spade a spade

Culture vulture observatin

Covert operations

Spades
