Dizzy Wright, Chellè, Big K.R.I.T., Tech N9ne - God Bless America lyrics

Yo, it's taking a lot for me
To give y'all all of me
For y'all to take it and run with it
And turn it into some shit that it's not

Yo, exceeded my expectations a while ago
They wondering why Dizzy the one
That's always smiling for
I listen a lot and look
At everything I done accomplished, mane
Still, my baby girl and son is the
Main thing that I value most
Family, fuck a xanny
I'm puffing on this flower though
You piece of shit, no thang, we keep it lit
No hard feelings, don't ever change
Don't ever quit
When I found out living legends still exist
I knew I had to commit
So I heard that this new
Generation was waiting on me
After The Golden Age
These old heads been praying for me
To get involved, maybe vent to y'all
And make an impact
Better plant a seed and water that
Bitch and watch it grow
Now how many times I gotta say
It? I been down and out
But you only get so many
Chances till you're fouling out
And I'm like
"Let me live without taking no breaths"
My mind is focused on which task
I'm finna take on next, uh
I think back when I just hung with my dawgs
My mama could never keep a man
'cause we was running him off
Needed a father figure but I don't
Like how he coming across he end up gone
She was sad but I felt like that's his loss
I told her, "Never bend your head
Look the world straight in the eyes"
"You deserve love
But a queen don't need a king to survive"
And it's a blessing to be able to
Rap and not feed y'all lies
Or fake my happiness like
Everything's just fine
I mean, we all human beings but we not alike
'Cause the loudest on the Internet get
To sleep through a quiet night
It's a big difference and it's teaching me
A lot about who we are, how like
Money don't change people
It just bring out who they truly are
Man, I done seen the most from coast to coast
They got us crossing over the border line
I don't got all the answers but
We need to be more organized
So here's a little enlightening for
Your peace of mind
Everything you need in this life you live
Will come at the perfect time
So God bless America

In God we trust
Born in royalty, they can't take that from us
No matter what, runs through our blood
We have the power, we just lack the trust
(trust) just have your faith and believe
Keep calm, my young kings and queens
Watch and you'll see, and when that day comes
May God bless America

Uh, follow me
Follow me through the hardships
Pardon my need to be swift with
How I start this speech
Who you more like? Malcolm or Martin?
The game that they play with us, brother
Don't have no cartridge
Button mashers, disaster casters
They ass backwards i might slave for a meal
But you ain't my master
Running through the field
All I hear is laughter
'Cause them chains that kept us
Here can no longer capture
The heart of my folk
Foot on my the throat of my oppressor
For all of them ropes
They tied a tree for my ancestors
If limbs could talk, they'd cry for days
Sad, they gave all they had
But couldn't break under pressure
Blood on the leaves, Glock on the dresser
Them laws plotting
Protect and serve but I know better
The news a lie, to you and I, TV ain't real
So don't you try
To be like none of them Housewives
Selling us fools' gold
Tell a son to slang dope and
Daughter twerk when they get old
Damn shame, how we find time to sit around
Smoking and dranking
While they corporate banking
Don't be content with the hood, nigga
What is you thinking?
I got a small violin if
You don't vote for complaining
About the government
Stand up on some brother shit
And stop being on some other shit
God bless America

Despite all the barriers
If you do whatever you do every day
You can get it i did it

From the poorest
They said I gotta push for all
My dreams and they flourished
Then a forest full of obstacles
I got the dope 'cause I'm morest
Don't ignore it
That I built this vocab without a thesaurus
When the war is pressing
They be asking me questions like Katie Couric
Like, "Did you sell dope
When you fell broke?"
Tryna stop a male's hope who
Never dropped the jail soap
Made it up out of Hell's scope, they ask
Can I spell "vote"?
I'm feeling like they tryna tell jokes
Chappelle wrote
I'm a US citizen escaping the
Penitentiary they hid us in
This kid has been fitted to quit and
Then spit it and shit again
But I became noble and
Well-rounded like an oval
Never will I be grounded for disposal
Everybody be astounded by the mogul
Tech N9ne!
No more saying, "I can't afford this"
Even when I was down
My plan was to never abort this
Don't forget, they said I sold my soul
That's horse shit
'Cause I simply thought my way
Onto the Forbes List so God bless America

In God we trust
Born in royalty, they can't take that from us
No matter what, runs through our blood
We have the power, we just lack the trust
(trust) just have your faith and believe
Keep calm, my young kings and queens
Watch and you'll see, and when that day comes
May God bless America
