(huh) my grandmomma was raised on a reservation | |
(huh) my great-grandmomma was, from a plantation | |
They sang - songs for inspiration | |
They sang - songs for relaxation | |
They sang - songs, to take their minds up off that | |
Fucked up situation | |
I am... yes i am... the descendant (yes yes) | |
Of those folks whose, backs got broke | |
Who, fell down inside the gunsmoke | |
(black people!) chains on they ankles and feet | |
I am descendants, of the builders of your street | |
(black people!) tenders to your cotton money | |
I am.. hip-hop | |
"it's heavy metal for the black people" | |
I am.. rock and roll (rock and roll.. rock'n'roll) | |
Been here forever! | |
They just ain't let you know.. (ha!) | |
I said, elvis presley ain't got no soul (huh) | |
Chuck berry is rock and roll (damn right) | |
You may dig on the rolling stones | |
But they ain't come up with that style on they own (uh-uh) | |
Elvis presley ain't got no soullll (hell naw) | |
Little richard is rock and roll (damn right) | |
You may dig on the rolling stones | |
But they ain't come up with that shit on they own (nah-ah) | |
Guess that's just the way shit goes | |
You steal my clothes and try to say they yo's (yes they do) | |
Cause it's a show filled with pimps and hoes | |
Tryin to take everything that you made or control (there they go) | |
Elvis presley ain't got no soullll | |
Bo diddley is rock and roll (damn right) | |
You may dig on the rolling stones | |
But they ain't the first place the credit belongs | |
Say whoahhhh-oh (don't take it) oooh-weee-ohhh | |

"the fuck is on your mind?" | |
When i get down in my zone | |
I be rockin bad brains and fishbone | |
I ain't tryin to slow your groove | |
But that ain't the way i'm tryin to move | |
I don't turn on korn to get it on; | |
I be playin jimi hendrix 'til the dawn | |
That's my word is bond | |
Sittin up on my front lawn | |
Got the volume turned to ten | |
Playin albert king the best again (black) | |
When the mornin in the cooker | |
Got to turn on some john lee hooker | |
When i want some rock and roll | |
Go to otis redding to get some soul | |
Say, james brown got plenty of soul | |
James brown like to rock and roll | |
He can do all the shit fo' sho' | |
That elvis presley could never know (black people) | |

John coltrane is rock and roll (uh-huh) | |
You may dig on the rolling stones | |
But they could never ever rock like nina simone | |
