omar abu - gentrified كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
they take out they loans, purchase our homes
kick out my folks
jack up the costs, paint all the doors
now its all ghosts

black is just bedtime
now we don’t mesh right
they cooked out the yolk, left out the soul
now it’s all egg whites
(see it my way)

you like the headlines
pics for your websites
i drive a honda, ride with my momma
victim of redlines

pen by my bedside
sleep, it don’t rest right
i work a 9 to 5 then 5 to 9
survive a life confined behind a fence of lies that you let slide

gentrified, and they know it ain’t right
colonized, and they know i can’t fight
but f-ck dollar signs, cuz they know there ain’t price
that i would ever sign, tryna’ say i can’t write

why? they get theirs, you get more
they all scared, they make sure
all my fares, can’t afford
it ain’t fair, pay your costs
you can’t take, what is mine, it ain’t yours

[hook]
i don’t want your ways round here
i just want my home
i don’t want your ways round here
i just want, a place
to call my own

[verse 2]
own own
put down your phone
stop all your movies
bring down your drones
take all your groupies
take all your clones
move back to boonies
back to your zones
let me just do me
leave me alone
no you can’t use me
lead me along
no you can’t fool me
fibs in your songs
pardon my rude streak
nice is too hard cos’

light skin complexion
mean white kids protected
dark sin complexion
mean dark kids arrested
once making records
in they adolescence
now they got records
criminal perspective

what am i to do?
i’m just a kid from private school
i got a flow thats fire smooth and i know its kinda cruel
i was raised on silver spoon
you don’t got my kind of tools
you ain’t gotta learn from me see i’m tryna learn from you

mic check check test, testify set me free
black white east west, africa 7 seas
from the 248 to 313 to 213 to falisten
all i’m trying to do is speak!
