It's not over, it's the beginning
It's not over, it's the beginning
It's not over, it's the beginning
The funk is still pending
Like dial-up, it's still sending, the funk is pending
I see no signs of it stopping, no?signs?of?ending
The funk is?still pending, it?won't stop rendering
Can't get it out of his head, he can't stop remembering
Popo killed his daddy in front of him and his sibling
So he got issues with the law, he real militant
Racism is heavy, it still exists
They say because our queens got better coochie and we pack the biggest sticks
It's deeper than that and it's deeply rooted
Misery love company, they want it to be a divided country
The microwave babies and the millennials ain't rockin' with them old ass ways
Them ways hella old
"Fuck you mom, fuck you dad, those are my friends
You hate 'em 'cause the color of their skins
And fuck my ancestors, too, they're burnin' in hell
They killed Black people if they learned how to spell"
It's not over, it's the beginning
That old mentality ain't got no common place in our world today
It's not over, it's the beginning
Racial tension is at a disturbing high right now, bruh
It's not over, it's the beginning
I don't know where they're gettin' all this rage from but they had to get it from somewhere
The funk is still pending
I don't worship no flag, I don't worship no statue, just God
The funk is still pending
(Pending, pending, pending, pending, pending, pending)
The funk is still pending
(Pending, pending, pending, pending, pending, pending)
The funk is still pending
Pending, my ninja, it's outta pocket
I try to tell the young demons they need to stop it
The funk is still pending, my ninja, it ain't debunked
Might get a flesh wound or get slumped
The OG that's funding 'em got some lump sums
And he one of them ones, he got octopus arms
Everybody involved, they all know each other
Might be some kin, parents went to school with each other
I don't know what is wrong with this generation
IG Live is their line of communication
They're stubborn, they don't wanna dialogue
Funkin' for nothin', probably over a broad
It's up there, they lurkin', they in the cut
Bodies done dropped, can't nip it in the bud
A lot of talent got they life cut short
I try to talk to the youth and show my support
It's not over, it's the beginning
Soil politics, it go down in every state, every soil, every city
It's not over, it's the beginning
They got a different way of scoring nowadays
Ours used to be sports, now theirs is corpse
It's not over, it's the beginning
Now keep in mind there's just as much white-on-white crime than black-on-black crime
The funk is still pending
But they ain't gon' tell you 'bout that
They use black-on-black crime to deflect away from police brutality and racism
The funk is still pending
(Pending, pending, pending, pending, pending, pending)
The funk is still pending
(Pending, pending, pending, pending, pending, pending)
The funk is still pending
It's not over, it's the beginning
