[feat. Kardinal Official]
Everybody in my city pushing keys and that's all these kids see
That's the only thing they hear then that's the only thing they'll be,
We call it swag, swag, swag
We call it swag, swag, swag
The homies is busting slugs, the women is shaking ass
The white girls call us "nigga" and we just sit back and laugh
And call it swag, swag, swag
We call it swag, swag, swag
Banner, let me get them, let me speak up
Let me tell them bout swag, let me tell them bout fraud
Let me tell them bout fraud and growing up black in a land so cold
You can freeze your soul if you don't have your wits about you
I allowed you, if you talk that swag should...
I been chilling on tour around the world
And most of the egos really don't move me
I came from the hood but I came up good
My mama raised me right,
I was more into Malcom than into talkcom
Different kind of fight
I see niggas sell out who they really are for fame and money
Denounce a profit just for profit with no interest to stop it
My calculations showing as the people we regressing
Most of the rappers I know they're intelligent
But they would never bless you with a lesson
They would rather feed you to bitches, drugs and guns
Like fucking clowns
They ain't concerned with your block cause they in the burbs now
What's worse, a white supremacy plotting to kill you with evil?
Or black faces on the t.v. poisoning our people
Mentally in the streets, our brains are in a body bag
I hope you vote Obama twice, but some of you won't
Just blame it on your swags, swags, swags
Everybody in my city pushing keys and that's all these kids see
That's the only thing they hear then that's the only thing they'll be,
We call it swag, swag, swag
We call it swag, swag, swag
The homies is busting slugs, the women is shaking ass
The white girls call us "nigga" and we just sit back and laugh
And call it swag, swag, swag
We call it swag, swag, swag
Is anybody on the next level
With me, I'm hearing niggas disregard
Y'all think it's witty,
I ain't laughing, we don't play in Mississippi
Even when I was broke, selling my soul wasn't tempted
Now the white cop shoot a black kid
You will see if you twist that's it
You march for a minute, that's it
Get a new outfit, and it goes like this
Cook, swag, cook, swag
A black kid did me, nobody made
They won't speak the truth, these niggas been scared
Call my flow the pudding, the proof's in there
I say the shit they say I shouldn't I ain't never cared
I've been everywhere the game spitted and left it there
I brought a couple slugs to your hood, pray I don't leave them there
I hope that you don't give me a reason, double dare
I'm hard to scare, I'm what they fear, a black planet
Everybody in my city pushing keys and that's all these kids see
That's the only thing they hear then that's the only thing they'll be,
We call it swag, swag, swag
We call it swag, swag, swag
The homies is busting slugs, the women is shaking ass
The white girls call us "nigga" and we just sit back and laugh
And call it swag, swag, swag
We call it swag, swag, swag
