Nina Simone Thoughts Lyrics

An artist duty as far as I'm concerned is to reflect the times

Here I go again, trying to make some sense with a pad and a pen

Thinking that it's better ways with my time, imma just be a rapper when it end?

Fuck that, I got push back

Many of us take the time to look back

Our people did more than just cook crack

It be entertainment for what we good at

I will push the culture forward

Nobody fighting the honest war

Guilty myself if we keep in it real

Unless you innocent as Emit Till

Ain't no complaining just play the field

Take it to trial no taking deals

Every deal you gave us full of shit

We ain't asking shit we taking shit

It's flagrant

Speak existence to the alter

Speak the life into my water

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Praying with my hands moving

I'm just trying to making something of nothing

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

I'm right there support my cousin

Project, respect, protect the woman

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Live like a god, challenge the odds

Heart on my sleeve, blood is ink to

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

It's the apples, it's the candy

They understand me, Don't overstand me

He think I'm grimy, she think I'm fancy

Don't undermine me, niggahs can't stand me

I'm on top of the list

Weather you think so or not

I cannot give a shit

Come on yo scene like blip

Shit on your fav and then dip

It's way too obvious

I don't subscribe to shit

On my own wave

Scenic view, see the view

I ain't got time convincing you

nobody stupid it's the principle

Is you is, or isn't you

Spent too many years at the bottom

I'm bottomless, too hurt to solve em

See me balling mind yo business darling

Never falling cause my conscious calling like

This the temple, this the life

Lose it all, if I don't scribe

Gain it all, the more I write

Eons of seeing what it's like

This the temple, this the life

Lose it all if I don't fight

Gain it all with the right timing

Imma always be writing

Speak existence to the alter

Speak the life into my water

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Praying with my hands moving

I'm just trying to making something of nothing

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

I'm right there support my cousin

Project, respect, protect the woman

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Live like a god, challenge the odds

Heart on my sleeve, blood is ink to

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)

Right on (Write)
