Shadrach Shadrach |
| [00:02.76] |
Say what you like just spell my name right |
| [00:07.20] |
I've got a good name |
| [00:08.34] |
Say what you like just spell my name right |
| [00:11.40] |
Yeah |
| [00:11.52] |
Say what you like just spell my name right |
| [00:12.51] |
I represent more than my rap |
| [00:13.35] |
Say what you like just spell my name right |
| [00:17.49] |
I've got a good name my first name came from slave in Babylon back in the day rat in a cage |
| [00:23.22] |
Raised in chains he trained like Rocky but I mean his brain not boxing |
| [00:27.39] |
So he got sly like Stallone got game like 50 cent posse up first to work on his coffee grind |
| [00:33.54] |
In no time promoted to the king's right hand but no hype man had to take the right stand |
| [00:38.46] |
When the king made a statue of gold he told the whole nation that they had to bow down to it |
| [00:43.92] |
That or get tossed in the furnace Shad and his boys said boss you can burn us |
| [00:48.24] |
We can't serve this statue it's worthless |
| [00:50.76] |
The king was mad but Shadrach wasn't nervous |
| [00:53.88] |
It must have been some strange phenomenon |
| [00:56.07] |
They walked straight through the fire |
| [00:57.72] |
Chaka Khan |
| [00:58.92] |
Saved by faith stronger than flames |
| [01:01.02] |
If I'm half as brave then I honour my name |
| [01:13.23] |
I've got a good name |
| [01:28.59] |
And my last name come down some generations |
| [01:31.86] |
Came down from the elevation |
| [01:33.51] |
High in the hills of a great nation |
| [01:35.64] |
With a bright future and a dark past |
| [01:38.16] |
That won't overshadow the hope cause the night's passed |
| [01:40.56] |
Down from my grandfather who held down the village |
| [01:43.29] |
Feel it when I touch down there |
| [01:45.09] |
Now it's spilling in the same veins |
| [01:47.16] |
As a good dad with a good name |
| [01:49.41] |
You see Shad's pop always played bad cop |
| [01:51.84] |
He had no badge though we didn't give him mad props |
| [01:54.96] |
But now I respect it |
| [01:56.40] |
Guess it's perspective |
| [01:57.42] |
In hindsight seeing it's corrective |
| [01:59.52] |
So when I get kids if they get arrested |
| [02:01.98] |
They going to get licks like breath mints |
| [02:03.90] |
Check it |
| [02:04.71] |
He held a tough job down |
| [02:06.12] |
Held my mothers hand |
| [02:07.35] |
Handed down proud roots from my motherland |
| [02:09.78] |
To my hometown people say my name sounds d**e no doubt but that's not why I'm most proud |
| [02:24.33] |
I've got a good name |
