No matter where I go I know I'll always be Comin from the east coast Comin from the bean Its like its my blood Its like its in my jeans Will someone wash my clothes In the ocean please The world outside is so pretty pretty They got us tied up in all these dam cities Your life is planned out since you itty bitty Go to school get a job in the city By 25 your whole world changes By 33 your life rearranges All my friends they all getting married Having kids like man its scary It's like same day It's like the same tape It's like you're rewrote In the same way I'm talking generations On top of generations On top of generations On top of generations No matter where I go I know ill always be Coming from the east coast Coming from the bean Its like its in my blood Its like its in my jeans Will someone wash my clothes In the ocean please Coming from Mi'kma'ki We are royalty She's a part of us Were a part of she Not matter what they say Its all belongs to us No matter what they write On a piece of paper When we try to fight To exercise our rights Is like we always wrong And they always right Cuz you always right When your skin is white And you always wrong When you skin is bronze I'm on a mission to rewrite the history I'm only here to right a couple of things How would you feel if I said let me stay with you For like a day or two And I am new to you Next thing you knew I had my family crew Living in your house Eating up your food How would you feel How would you feel If I was living in your house and it was real If it was you If it was you If it was you If it was you If it was you you would give a f*ck too If it was you If it was you Any you were on the street And I was living in Your house The house you grew up in And I walked right in Killed two parents Put you on the street Gave you shit to eat Put you over there Over there somewhere Then I tried to kill All your family heirs Then I took your body Then I took your mind Then I took everything Everything in time If you really knew How it really is If you really knew You should give shit I'm not mad at you per se I'm just tryna set the record straight We all want to live We all want to love We all want to share the same gifts from above How would you feel if I took your kids and it was real How long would it take for you to unhate If it was you If it was you If it was you If it was you If it was you you would give a f*ck too If it was you you would give a f*ck too No matter where I go I know ill always be Coming from the east coast Coming from the bean Its like its in my blood Its like its in my jeans Will someone wash my clothes In the ocean please Let's take it back Back to the beginning Before there was Anyone living Plants were living Animals living Oceans living Everything living One with the land One with the sand One with stones One with the bones We was living like bone and marrow Bows and arrows No guns and pharaohs We still had disputes but no genocide That's cuz genocide Comes from the other side Now they tryna hide Now they tryna buy They lying in their dies They dying in their lies The truth is alive The truth is alive You cannot burry something that cannot die You cannot buy something that cannot die That's why the truth The truth is still alive
