WOKE

WOKE (Lyrics by Preach Ankobia)

Don’t buckle under stress
Adversity's my favorite motivation
Think it's cause my daddy haitian or I’m sick of waiting patient

So I grind

My mama needs her mortgage paid

Pensions running out
She’ll get to trippin if the mortgage raise

Planning how I’ll hold her down in her golden age
Things that cross your mind in your older days

Feel like I'm slowing down
When I get some good kush and float away

Try another batch
Shit my soldier say

Trying to figure out why more blacks don’t own shares in propane?

Or control their own petroleum
Gas or gold trade?

Why when I and I try to higher rise you throw shade?
Blocked pineal glands
Got us caged
in a cave
In the caucus

Looking for that Daucus Carota
I heard latex causes cancer of the chocha

Rage like I’m Zach Delarocha
Think I’m gon’ be silent when you gave my people coka

Hell No!
Y'all ain't gon' touch us no more
Ya.. Y'all ain't gon ' touch us no more

Tell Babylon Hell No
Y'all ain't gon' touch us no more
Ya.. Y'all ain't gon ' touch us no more

They keep telling me I'm woke?
I'm tryna roll this reef my nigga
I'm just tryna find my peace my nigga

They keep telling me I'm woke?
I'm tryna smoke this keef my nigga
I'm just tryna go to sleep my nigga

Africa is in my eyes
The islands are the canvas to my pieces.
Tell me why my western people do not rep their eastern equals?
Is it us?
are we harvesting the evils?
Cause I don’t recognize me when I see you!

See boo
They've been tryna figure out our power for a while.
How they planted us in asphalt and we flowered with a smile
Erstwhile, our domicile inspired freestyle

That's why they don’t want ya
Smoking Marijuana!
Ganjah represses information taught to haunt ya,
Why ain’t wheatgrass, chlorophyll and spirulina sponsored?

They’re trying keep you wide awake and still unconscious
That's why I zone out to Kabaka and some Chronixx

Yo they love to lock us up for that coco
Cointelpro still embedded in the popo

We tryna out run time
Cause they gon’ Kunta Kinte you my nigga till you out your mind

Hell No!
Y'all ain't gon' touch us no more
Ya.. Y'all ain't gon ' touch us no more

Tell Babylon Hell No
Y'all ain't gon' touch us no more
Ya.. Y'all ain't gon ' touch us no more

They keep telling me I'm woke?
I'm tryna roll this reef my nigga
I'm just tryna find my peace my nigga

They keep telling me I'm woke?
I'm tryna smoke this keef my nigga
I'm just tryna go to sleep my nigga
