Melanin |
| Standing on the block shotting reefer |
| He thinks he’s too fly for the five o |
| Got a rolex on his hand |
| Gonna stick it to the man |
| Cos he just made 2 grands |
| Gotta be God’s plan |
| None to wise best believer |
| Dutty wining in the middle of the road |
| Sometimes you got to flex to get respect |
| For the ones who did not make it |
| For the ones who lost who were struck down |
| For the ones who fell before us |
| Or yet to come |
| It’s all going off at true flavours |
| He’s looking criss in the barber’s chair |
| Park your bimma in the road |
| Don’t care who knows he’s down to fight |
| Boys not raised right |
| Where you at? |
| Where you been? |
| Where you going fam? |
| It’s carved in stone like a hieroglyph |
| Let this black man show you how to get down |
| How you gonna know your weight in gold? |
| Why your skin glows in sunlight? |
| How you gonna know |
| If you’re not told the truth about where you’re from? |
| Don’t you wanna know your weight in gold? |
| Why your skin glows in sunlight? |
| Don’t you wanna know the truth about where you’re from? |
| How you gonna know your weight in gold? |
| Why your skin glows in sunlight? |
| Sometimes you got to flex to get respect |
| For the ones who did not make it |
| For the ones who lost who were struck down |
| For the ones who fell before us |
| Or yet to come |
| I’m just a rub-a-dub soldier |
| I’m just a rub-a-dub soldier |
| I’m just a rub-a-dub soldier |
| Fighting to keep the ruckus alive |
