lirik lagu memnon the black - won't stop (native son)

yall remember this one right?
it’s the natureboy
boy
memnon
you should lalready know me bobo
i said fredericksburg you ain’t never heard
lets go

[verse 1 : memnon]

here i am again
sitting at a computer with paper and a pen
knowing that the message in my heart makes sense
but knowing that the people that need it won’t let it in
not knowing it’s a message of power
it’s a message of knowledge
a message hard to decipher when blinded by college
and blinded by other f-cking schemes formed all on a false promise
i wish i could tell ’em
that they burning in h-ll
thought they think they’re in heaven
see they’re surrounded by those material goods
not realizing the absence of immaterial good
color of the interior and what’s under the hood
won’t matter when there’s a tank rolling down the streets of your hood
rapists dressed up as soldiers from the night to the day
mercenary “protectors” patrolling entire streets
we avoid the subpoenas and borders of yellow tape
but just imagined being occupied for 17 weeks
to make you understand that sh-t it would take 17 beats
but here i go with one, to my people i owe the least
see the soil beneath my feet is weak right now
the current situation’s looking kinda bleak right now
i’m hoping mercy befalls the meek right now
we took a pacquiao hook to the cheek just now
but see the message stays the same

[refrain]
hold your head high through the sun and the rain
hold your shield high when them arrows start to rain
the barrage gon’ come quick so from cowardice refrain
and yea i’m kinda young so n0body knows my name
but i learned very quickly to find pleasure in the pain
x2

[chorus]
so let me make this simple
no need for smoke and mirrors or hidden riddles
so, for whatever it’s worth
i feed my spirit every day that i’m walking this earth
and it’s summer time in my hometown
so you know i’m rooftop, vivify, vibing out in the sunshine
yea, see it’s fredericksburg, i’m a native son
they trynna get me but i won’t stop

[verse 2 – memnon]
i’m no statue
i’m moving fluid, want freedom
but there’s statutes that will give it to me
hungry
but there’s no cl-ssroom that could give me sufficient instruction
so now i’ll gain it on my own
end of discussion
there’s an orchestra in my soul
enter percussion
i meditate on the daily so i’m the sole conductor
what predicated creation was a series of blunders
lightning struck
after was scientific wonder
and now i’m close, seconds counted to hear the thunder
turn it up in the speakers so you can hear the rumble
my people built this country, so when them cities crumble
i’ll emerge from the rubble, telekinetic bubble
all around my fam baby
feel like the man, but my bank account been down lately
it’s cuz i’m making all these motherf-cking loan payments
take it from me
don’t let them trick you to think that that paper will set you free, please

[chorus]
look, my n-gga
see imma make it simple
no need for smoke and mirriors or hidden riddles
so, for whatever its worth
feed your spirit every day that you’re walking this earth
and it’s summer time in my hometown
so you know i’m rooftop, vivify, vibing out in the sunshie
yea, see its fredericksburg, i’m a native son
they trynna get me but i won’t stop

[verse 3 – memnon]
jet fuel don’t melt steel fool, don’t get me started
got so fed up with them n-ggas i had to leave the party
see on the people content with living in total darkness
you can’t expend any energy
but it’s far from hearltess
see it’s live and let live
so live your life paatna
guess i could keep them two cents in my pocket…
fess up, that’s some spitta, i’m paying homage
nessa stressing, i told her we’ll be aight mama
jessi can manage the poet better than omorosa
she’ll be trump tower, sipping a cold mimosa
i’ll be telling cameraman move a little closer
flowing like schwayze, point break, one with the ocean
i’m so glad i decided to set my dream in motion
track by track, cranking like a locomotive
team tight-packed, formation like some roman soldiers
they got my back like a praetorian cohort
homie don’t be a poor sport

[chorus]
see i can make it simple
no need for smoke and mirrors or hidden riddles
so, for whatever it’s worth
i feed my spirit every day that i’m walking this earth
and it’s summer time in my hometown
so you know i’m rooftop, vivify, vibing out in the sunshine
yea, see it’s fredericksburg, i’m a native son
they trynna get me but i won’t stop
