lirik lagu mckinley dixon - anansi, anansi
[verse 1]
my mama preached me stories of anansi
that’s why my storytelling keep me on beat
she said, “if you whisper they’ll never hear you speak
and lions will be forced to tell the stories of sheep”
well
i see the vision on the big screen
i prayed to god my necklace gleamed
inspiration from eclectic scenes
show that even though h~ll is hot
it’s grass got a certain green
i hope it
hit you as much as it hit my own
put faith in one man
when he fall he’ll break through your home
crash through thе ceiling
hanging my body out of the coop
hit my head crawling out of it
feel thе knot on my roof
driving towards the sky, what a view
i look up hoping you can see sh~t too
i’ll tear it down if you raised up, true
this rapping sh~t gon’ get me through
[chorus]
writing
“long live the flower that blooms from concrete”
humming
“long live the flower that blooms from concrete
n~gga, long live the flower that blooms from concrete
for everyone hopes they don’t speak”
singing
“long lives the flower that blooms from concrete
attached to the picture frame sitting up on the street”
yelling
“long live the flower that blooms from concrete
for everyone prays they don’t speak”
n~gga
[verse 2]
i’m telling the stories
the gods and the glory
that young boy is the villain?
blame it on his circulatory
systematic pressures
fester in the back of his mind
so now he sits all day alleviating wings from spines
thinking how he can put them on his
say what it is, n~gga a man when he should be a kid
have the choir sing, heaven out the crib
raise those hands high, high above your lid
and shake them, sway them, throw them
right into the crowd
do this for the love
congregation sing it out loud
we preaching, no soapbox
he creeping, let’s hope not
what sleeps in the sidewalk
eats up the whole block
long live the bloomer that can’t speak
we pray for the flower choked up between concrete
cause looking up to the sky is beautiful from the street
but lurking up in those clouds
lies the bottom of feet, n~gga
don’t get
stomped out
don’t get
stomped out
don’t get
stomped out
