Native Sons by Tony Cobain Lyrics
(Chad X. Ali)
Yea
Yea
Alright
Yea
Looking at my pops and I'm just 2.0
We been parallel living since we was Juveniles
Same mind
Same body
Same playa ways
The Only difference is he showed Me how the game was played
He told me Folks will smell you out
And then attack yo weakness
Mistake your kindness for humble And then they call it meekness
His favorite saying is can you take 100 and make it two
But I made this song for you to say I Made it through
(Tony Cobain)
My melanin popping but for some Thats a strike
Im weighing my options Im either Rich or wright
My soul is like gold but it don’t have A price
Writing rhymes meditating for Eternal life
Now I look in the mirror no it's not Me I see
I came a long way from being little Anthony
A young man with a plan tryna Break free
I thank god I'm the man who I came To be
But life’s a bitch but god forbid the Bitch divorce me
I got no choice b, but to use my gift As a voice piece
Kids dying moms crying repeated History
Black man Shot down o it's a Mystery
How can I live?
Can something take the pain away
We don't quit cuz we live to see Another day
So I thank my mom and my dad Every single day
You gotta love cuz in a snap it could Fade away
(Chad X. Ali)
You gotta move on the vision that You was given
See this ain't coming from my health
I'm speaking from my spirit
And man I pray you hear it
Eye to eye can feel it
I'm stitching all my soul
It's me in every lyric
Living legacy
A living legacy
I'm changing language up
I’m talking lokhue kuhele
That’s means it's all good
Be patient you’ll get it
I feel the weight of the world is Finally being lifted
Yea I done found my groove
And Now my life complete
I'm breed to create
Y'all tryna compete
So what's yo legacy?
What was you made to be?
Better yet
Just be the person that you prayed to Be
Now
What is you gone make?
You gone Whip that wrist
And birth that cake
The less soul you give
The more the world gone take
Be grateful in this midst
So that your mind don’t break
Yea
See Your dreams man they heaven Sent
You finally rising up
Because its relevant
You finally finding out this ain't your Residence
You got a higher calling that's gotta Take precedence
Think about it every day before you Wake up
Think about that money fo' you cake Up
And think about that mama fo' you Pull that trigger
And think about your skin when you Seeing a nigga
(Castro)
Baby don't you know love is kind
And it's beautiful
What you bring into this world
You gotta bring it deep from your Soul
Don't let the dark times keep you Low
Stand tall and hold your head up High
Focus on God
And open your heart
And be the best source of light
No h
Yea
Yea
Alright
