griot b - nubian queens كلمات الأغنية

nubian queens
kemet kings
blow the nose off the sphinx
it’s still black to me

every rapper talking about kush
they don’t even know what that is
kush was a kingdom that conquered all of egypt
and a reason why we have pyramids
and their skin, dark as the sky
i’m talking sky, when the stars lit
in kemet their called nubians, and nubian means gold
like mansa musa these africans were rich
i’m talking about

nubian queens
kemet kings
blow the nose off the sphinx
it’s still black to me

kush was in east africa, right below kemet’s borders
modern day sudan and a little ethiopia
when i say kemet, i’m talking about egypt
where you find those pyramids of giza
you see, kemet is what the people called their home
(not egypt)
egypt was a name made by greeks
(that’s the truth)
and their skin ranged from the color bronze
(melanin)
to black as the ebony tree
(that’s our roots)
back to kush, the capitol meroe
won all their battles off the strength of their bow
known as the best archers in the whole land
their country wasn’t always led by a man
kandake. kandake, that word right there means
queen mother of the land ruler over everything
not just a n0ble she led her people in war
armored up head to toe draped in gold
you learned about the pharaohs in school as a scholar
did they teach you about pharaoh piye from napata?
25th dynasty starter
cream of the crop, rose to the top from bottom

you should learn about your past, it’s a beautiful thing
there were merchants, diamond jewelers
they made beautiful rings
have you heard about sheba? she’s a beautiful queen
i’m a kemet king

why are my brothers and sisters?
portrayed with white faces in the movies
was denzel to busy is lupita not a beauty?
you can’t see taraji p as nefert-ti? tyrese as set?
or are you set on them on set as slaves getting whipped
some say napoleon had his nose wide open in love with his self
when he left philando castile’s nose on the sphinx smoking
blown to smithereens as he plundered kemet’s wealth
where’s the all black cast of any period of the past that
don’t involve slaves?
where is tyler perry, oprah, and diddy?
come on 50!
shine light on our history instead of throwing shade!
i open every school book of history and i see
creamy beige gouda cheese looking mothers
as pictures of egypt’s queens and it gets to me
because i have a mother who is burnt sienna crayon colored
i mean, they made a movie called gods and kings
and whitewashed everything except the slaves and servants
they were black or brown. griot b hold it down!
we’re nubian queens and kemet kings black and proud
we’re black and proud!

nubian queens
kemet kings
blow the nose off the sphinx
it’s still black to me
