Ghost of da plantation Lyrics

Hey yea yea

Youths under new genocide we still alive

Check me out

Ghost of the plantation I'm haunted by segregation

They said it was emancipation turned out to be enslavement

Suffer from aggravation and trauma for generations

Passed down for ages no wonder I grew up racist

No wonder I grew up hated in places

We never made it outside of these situations

Chains and mini cages from trees they had us hanging

This feeling I can't explain it

They gave us misinformation the ghost of the plantation

What is slavery something they made me be

Maybe a good for nothing little nigga that hate to read

Uneducated we living unpleasantly

See this was after the reconstruction

They captured us leave us stuck with the

Master to keep us running from actually seeking something

Ancestry lost deputies talk in subliminals

Whenever we fought they killed us off that's the ritual

Genocide treating us all like some criminals

Heard about George Floyd that could've been your boy

That could've been your son or daughter

Blood flows in water after a execution style of murder

Before the mayflower civilization was perfect

Slave trade was Atlantic rappers sign to Atlantic

They decide on a million few payments get granted

First single's a dud then ya album is trash

Now you stuck on the shelf running after ya past

What should could have now ya skin is branded

Can't go anywhere cause once you do you stranded

Picture this a women getting beat while she pregnant

But the baby in her stomach isn't dead yet

Years go by his become grown as he heals from trauma

While he still picking cotton he can feel his mama/

From the lower class to the hills in Ghana/

Check me out

Ghost of the plantation i'm haunted by segregation

They said it was emancipation turned out to be enslavement

Suffer from aggravation and trauma for generations

Passed down for ages No wonder I grew up racist

No wonder I grew up hated in places we never made it

Outside of these situations chains and many cages

From trees they had us hanging this feeling I can't explain it

They gave us misinformation the ghost of the plantation
