[00:30.271] These 52-year-olds bones I hear creeks without water flows
[00:33.379] Hip hop pro but will never know songs my 23-year-old daughter knows
[00:37.137] She's plays artists I dig, I ask who is that kid?
[00:39.576] Her answers are inaudible
[00:41.179] Little this and that named after mobs and gats
[00:43.498] Mumble raps, beats are trap
[00:44.914] And every week there's an all new batch
[00:46.866] So I just relax and let her do her
[00:48.992] 'Cause I prefer to defer to Black Girl Magic
[00:51.515] Plus all the things me and my queen put into her
[00:54.265] Life's a blur, I remember whеn she was young
[00:56.087] All the lessons that did occur
[00:57.720] Tеach her 'bout her bees and birds
[00:59.269] Streets and curbs and dreams deferred
[01:01.625] Langston Hughes and Miriam Makeba
[01:03.579] Angela Davis, facts
[01:05.205] That combat the narrative that
[01:06.896] We're doomed as Blacks and nothing can save us
[01:09.372] Freedom fighting is the proper behavior, I tell her
[01:11.948] You're black queen and you're not b***h and nah, nah
[01:14.923] You are not vixen, nah, nah
[01:16.978] You are not a trick b***h, nah, nah
[01:18.888] Hear nobody's quick fix, nah, nah

[01:36.229] Americas never had your back no no no
[01:41.378] America's never had your back no no no
[01:42.873] Stop your bull ish
[01:43.920] Get off your pulpit
[01:45.278] You've been a pit bull to Black women
[01:47.164] The fullness
[01:47.839] Of what you done in the slave shacks back in the wilderness
[01:50.499] Having your way with women to little girls
[01:52.363] The childrenless
[01:53.143] Breaking in entry
[01:53.837] Centuries of souls thrown in manure pits
[01:55.951] Then you pitted you on one light kids against the darker kids
[01:58.890] Now were conditioned to keeping sparking this
[02:00.936] Hating our own women
[02:02.074] Intimacy divisions and indecisions
[02:04.349] For relational confusion
[02:05.817] Materialistic dilutions
[02:07.033] And all this cuz of your intrusions
[02:08.707] No wonder we came to conclusions that
[02:11.210] Blacks lives don’t matter
[02:12.420] Murder of Breonna Taylor
[02:13.893] Black blood that splatters
[02:14.991] America constantly failing us
[02:16.507] Give reparations
[02:18.026] Give a separate nation
[02:19.109] No more diversity talk
[02:20.369] It's a Black situation
[02:21.550] And stop degrading our dear sisters on your TV stations
[02:24.132] You're black queen and you're not b***h and nah, nah

[03:09.149] They're infatuated with that
[03:09.855] They love your full lips, your melanin darkness
[03:12.893] On them, they display
[03:14.148] On You, they dismiss
[03:15.369] And all of this madness sadness could easily be reversed
[03:18.271] If Black queens were seen as God's packages and nurture
[03:21.110] We see what you done to the people that was first year
