Rooted

Yo, I've been thinking about getting into the hip hop game...

Got my boys Jay Blak and C-Drop by my side, show Chief Chief Circle some

love, ya feel? Spence Mills on the beat. Stay positive. Stay rooted.

 

 

 

What happens is the roots of the trees come crumbling down

and suddenly all around, chaos erupts in town

a boy jumps in the water to avoid the renown

that comes when suddenly you are given a crown

but he drowns!

'cause no one ever taught him to shout for help

thats the hand he was dealt, his daddy used to whip out his belt

as soon as he yelled, you know the boy was covered in welts

and his kid sister knelt before uncle tom and felt

at the lump in his pants as it swelled

see this was punnishment for gettin expelled

cause school never made much sense to the youths

while searchin for truths, just tryin to improve

the life instead of smokin on roofs

and suckin off dudes inside'a confession booths

 

and now the boy is soaked in sweat and dirty water

swimmin upstream just because he knows its harder

thinkin he can avoid his father

escape the horror

that awaits him in that cell of a basement where he

 

spends every wakin second writin rhymes to beats that hes never heard

just wants to spread the good word, and fly like a bird

to go and visit the grave of his little sister,

who was beaten to death by the same man who had kissed her

on the lips in the church as he slid the ring on her finger

but the man was no different than uncle tom an/ his zipper

he tried to gripper and she tried to fight him off with a slipper

the sister hid but let out a whimper, and as the man drank his liquor

he kicked her in the liver till she was nothin but a whisper... damn...
