Little Brother, Phonte - Separate But Equal lyrics
[Little Brother, Phonte - Separate But Equal lyrics]
I just wanna stress cats, yo
It's just music man
For real, like it ain't even about, you know
I think the industry in a lot
Of ways done fucked up a
Lot of people minds into
Thinking that, you know
That the South is just one thing
And that it’s just one way and when
You got, you know, that the South
If it ain’t
Just you know just the Club music
Or the Crunk or whatever whatever
Then that ain’t really representative of
The South and a lot
Of people blame the South
For dumbing down music
Or whatever, but man the thing is
Like out of the South, you got some of
The most open-minded and some of the most
Versatile MC’s because in the South, man
We grew up listening to
Everything so, you know
I just really want people to just focus on
The music and you know say, not really so
Much on what these labels and what these
The radios and the TV stations be trying to
Feed ya’ll or what they think the
South is supposed to be the South is
Some of the most intelligent well-spoken
And thoughtful niggas in Hip-Hop man and the
Music reflects that so it’s like, yo when
You see your Little Brother hooking up with
A DJ Drama don’t be surprised
Real recognize real
Man it’s good music it’s Hip-Hop that’s
What we here to do, that’s what we gon’
Keep doin it’s Gangster
Grills, Little Brother, separate
But Equal, DJ Drama, Let’s get it
There like that man (yeah)
It's just music man
For real, like it ain't even about, you know
I think the industry in a lot
Of ways done fucked up a
Lot of people minds into
Thinking that, you know
That the South is just one thing
And that it’s just one way and when
You got, you know, that the South
If it ain’t
Just you know just the Club music
Or the Crunk or whatever whatever
Then that ain’t really representative of
The South and a lot
Of people blame the South
For dumbing down music
Or whatever, but man the thing is
Like out of the South, you got some of
The most open-minded and some of the most
