Songtexte Soul Clap - Deecon

But you know, Boo, I don't know whether I'm naive or what, but when I was coming up, I didn't believe in white and black
You know what I mean? Me, myself, I went to school with white kids also. They had just got together on that, you know, thing. You know where school makes them and all that stuff
And me, myself, I thought I was just as good as that white kid
That's because you light skinned, grandma

My grandma dealt with my granddaddy
And she gave birth to my momma
Picked cotton in the fields of Mississippi
While her mother watched Oprah thru the summer
Eyes change colors
Like the nights
The whites went behind
The backs of their wives
And infected our kind
Yet, she birthed with the calm of the blind
I tell ya
This little grandmother of mine
Put Alaga on her cakes
Can't stand chicken
Said Jemima reminded her of the slave whippings
Real descendants from ships
We raised different
An environment of fools only breeds killings
The crown you hold
Colder than them nights
You preached to me, Neek & Bunk
Never to fold
Don't complain
Make mistakes
And you're sure to grow
Be sure to love all the sames
You gon reap what you sow

Grandma stayed up like the curb
Grandaddy in the streets
And she never said a word
She a G
You got a place to sleep
Keep it solid as a T
But cha can't be a leech
Cause my grandma a G
Man you gotta see her jewelry
She a G
Forever pointing out how people be
She a G
Been told me she see me on TV
She a G
They been waiting on you and youn even believe
She a G

My grandma fell in love with granddaddy
And they gave birth to my pappy
They too tread the fields of the crooked letters
But had to rearrange slave minded habits
Birthed with the maiden name Toolie
She ready for action
Not talking no movie
It's not just name
I been a batman, mixed with some Baines
I know it's a Marvel
The clothe that I came
From ain't the same
As most of you guys
Because I was raised
By women who taught me bout life
And living the rest of my days
On top getting paid

Grandma stayed up like the curb
Grandaddy in the streets
And she never said a word
She a G
You got a place to sleep
Keep it solid as a T
But cha can't be a leech
Cause my grandma a G
Man you gotta see her jewelry
She a G
Forever pointing out how people be
She a G
Been told me she see me on TV
She a G
They been waiting on you and youn even believe
She a G
