Lyrics

They throw shade on my name I'm black gold and I'm great They try and silence our pain But we talkin' (woo) Yeah Huh Uh-huh, uh-huh Whoa Need no introductions They know who we are Big black man from Ghana Step forward like Kwame Nkrumah Who Jah bless, no man can curse Woke up like goodness gracious I still pray for freedom Bro bro still got pendin' cases Bad energy contagious Miss me with it, I just like my space Still no love for a pagan Too much trust nearly got man snaked Serpents move in circles, I keep mine the tightest The wisest move in silence and this kick-back, Lеonidas Grew up in the dungeon City run by tyrants Had to keep it stеppin' 'cause this path we took was righteous No problem burnin' bridges, I just call and push my lighter Focus now, I'm fearless Don't try me, try Jesus, serious They be talkin', I be walkin' Throw shade on my name, step with caution (woo) You be stalkin' (me, me), I've been bossin' (true, true) Scooped up to some more land 'cause I'm flossin' Follow me, count to ten One, two, tell 'em what we think Follow me, count to ten One, two, tell 'em what we think Follow me, count to ten One, two, tell 'em what we think Follow me, count to ten One, two- They still don't love me (ten), I like it Word to manga, I read that clearly This ain't no red or the blue pill thing 'Cause their agents can't get near me My God got power steerin' If he spin that wheel, I'll clear it Focus now, I'm fearless Don't try me, try Jesus Serious, who wants smoke? I'm curious, hmm Try but they can't get rid of us, no This one here ain't essential, darg If I do my dart, could burn my clothes Didn't want to flex in a rental, darg Open doors, now I own my home Still don't know why they hate so much If they took some time, they could learn these flows Wait (woo) They be talkin', I be walkin' Throw shade on my name, step with caution (woo) You be stalkin' (me, me), I've been bossin' (true, true) Scooped up some more land 'cause I'm flossin' (woo) Follow me, count to ten One, two, tell 'em what we think (woo) Follow me, count to ten One, two, tell 'em what we think (woo) Follow me, count to ten One, two, tell 'em what we think (woo) Follow me, count to ten (they will be talkin') (woo) Well, because of the crimes, and you know, the gangs Sometimes you worry about what will happen to them when they are out there
