Head on a swivel so them boys can't trap you
SIM card gone so the state can't track you
Keep ya mouth shut just in case they catch you
Crackers go to war over goddamn statues
Head on a swivel so them boys can't trap you
SIM card gone so the state can't track you
Keep ya mouth shut just in case they catch you
Crackers go to war over goddamn statues
Symbols matter to them more than all our Black lives
Thank God I figured it out when I was pint-sized
Readin' all this history
Shit ain't makin' sense to me
4 million slaves - but this the land of liberty?
White folk write the laws
They made our people criminals
Scared to say "n*gger"
But "thug" is just subliminal
Called our music Urban as a form of segregation
When they have the nerve to promote these imitations!
They worship false idols
Got no reverence for slaveowners
Said "It's not about race" but we at Daytona!
They proud of wavin' that flag but we can't kneel tho
You wave the the flag of a traitor - are you for real, bro?
I'm a true American and racists gotta live with that
Centuries of labor and they don't wanna give it back
The culture and the future black
You hate it that is just a fact
You mad cause we don't finish last
You brought us, you can't send us back
Head on a swivel so them boys can't trap you
SIM card gone so the state can't track you
Keep ya mouth shut just in case they catch you
Crackers go to war over goddamn statues
Head on a swivel so them boys can't trap you
SIM card gone so the state can't track you
Keep ya mouth shut just in case they catch you
Crackers go to war over goddamn statues
George Washington had bad oral hygiene
Y'all first president was just a dirty white man
Pan left to King Shaka standing in diamonds
In top shape him and his tribesmen
It don't take Sherlock to see he's a fictional wise man
Based off the genius from the brothers with my skin
Why then if statues should perpetuate honor
There's dishonored men carved by dishonored sculptors
In exodus 20: 4,5 is where it mentions
You shall not make for yourselves a carved image
So not only are these fake heroes a facade
You crackers are going against God
YEA I know this verse hard
Now if I do get a statue of me
On a university lawn in 2083
I need gold at the head
Silver at the chest
Brass at the waist
Iron at the legs to the base
Head on a swivel so them boys can't trap you
SIM card gone so the state can't track you
Keep ya mouth shut just in case they catch you
Crackers go to war over goddamn statues
Head on a swivel so them boys can't trap you
SIM card gone so the state can't track you
Keep ya mouth shut just in case they catch you
Crackers go to war over goddamn statues
