Lecrae, Propaganda - Daywalkers lyrics
[Lecrae, Propaganda - Daywalkers lyrics]
Could we just get three minutes of your time
Give or take a second or two?
See, when they ask you about the culture
Tell them I know it well
This what you get when you mix
Tony Hawk with Ice Cube, NWA
And the Bones Brigade let me talk to them
Hey, hey catch me copping nag Champa
North corner of Santee or
Twenty minutes east of South Central
That's West Covi broken families imposter
Black rocking white Rasta jimi Hendrix
Courtland Urbano mocking all
Your preconceived the narrative fight great
The heritage makes a man stand
With his spine straight the ground that grew
Kendrick, Anthony Kiedis, incubus
Music that speaks to the Jim
Morris in each of us
Shared the same nutrients
Except mine got laced with divine DNA
Go on and face it
The child of a freedom fighter
Trialed like graffiti writers
Wild like the Freedom Riders
We are all daywalkers, hybrids, bilingual
Bicultural fluent in the King's tongue
Elohim and human one
Rosetta Stone with a mic and some Chucks on
All things to all men
So all men say "Amen!"
When you're the product of a
Panther and mama's prayers answered
You don't even think twice
(you don't even think twice)
You be like "Let's go!" (Let's go, go)
Let's go
When they ask you about the culture say what
Say "I know it well" I know it well
I know it well, yes sir I know it well
I know it well hey holla at them 'Crae
You got it bro
Hey look, my homies told me back when
I was playing my Nintendo
To stay away from windows, cause bullets
They tend to hit those
My mama told when I got the PSone
To skip the BS and lead us or be as numb
As every other brother throwing up
Colors in my community i knew better
But couldn't do better but then I grew to be
The same dude reading Wayne Grudem
Even though I grew up
Listening to Snoop and Ice Cube, be amused
Had the muzak
We used that to bruise cat's egos
Nowadays you might find me under the steeple
Preaching to the people or making me a sequel
To mixtapes, get shin scrapes at skate parks
I'm everything in one I'm a
Product of great art
I'm a product of Descartes, Tim Keller
And Outkast
Iconoclast the glass ceiling that
They put above me
The reason that they hate me
The same reason they love me
When you're the product of a
Panther and mama's prayers answered
You don't even think twice
(you don't even think twice)
You be like "Let's go!" (Let's go, go)
Let's go
Everybody, everybody, everybody say
Say I know it well (I know it well)
I know it well (I know it well)
I know it well (I know it well)
I know it well (I know it well)
I know it well (I know it well)
I know it well (I know it well)
I know it well (I know it well)
Hey, let's go (let's go)
Hey, hey let's go (let's go)
Hey, hey let's go (let's go)
Hey, hey let's go (let's go)
Let's go, let's go, let's go let's go
(Let's go, let's go, let's go)
(Let's go, let's go, let's go)
