Kid Pharaoh - Dynasty lyrics

I’m seeing all the tats on
Your arm of the hieroglyph
But I’m not buyin’ shit
Yeah I’m seeing all the clothes
That you rock with the big stock Pharaoh on
‘em here’s the problem
This culture’s not a costume yeah for you
To consume just when you please it
Tell me to walk like an Egyptian and I
Might just walk your ass to Egypt

Show you how they living without the freedom
Where the leaders never leadin’
When you need ‘em
And the people in the streets
They weep for reason
Protest til the higher powers free them
Man what kinda life is that to
Live from day to day?
You never seen corruption like
One they can face
You never seen destruction in that fatal way
Can bit by bit just dump your faith away
But really you don’t care
What’s the meaning of it all?
They portray us with facades
Steady screening on the wall
Clichés everyday, intervening with the cause
That we’re tryna move it forward
Steady dreaming of the thought
Thoughts of evolution to carry
What is written they still cast white guys
To play us Egyptians?
Yeah, it’s like I’m not right shit
To fill my own position
But I stay fightin’ for that
Tradition, so I never listen, just listen

We, never wanted you to love us I said
We, were tryna make it through
The come up I said
We, never wanted you to love us
But you can’t take nothing from us
This the future we been promised
(And we still say)

Dynasty, dynasty, can you ride with me?
(And we still say)
Dynasty, in my dynasty, can you ride with me?
(And we still say)
Dynasty, dynasty, can you ride with me?
(And we still say)
Dynasty, in my dynasty, can you ride with me?

I’m seeing all the tats on
Your arm of the hieroglyph
But I’m not buyin’ shit
Yeah I’m seeing all the clothes
That you rock with the big stock Pharaoh on
‘em here’s the problem
This culture’s not a costume yeah for you
To consume just when you please it
Tell me to walk like an Egyptian and I
Might just walk your ass to Egypt

But even over there they want to flee it
Over here they tellin' me to love or leave it
Brown skin they don’t even wanna see it
Tell Pauline please explain your reason
What you want me out for?
My complexion is a blessing
You oppressing the young kings
I must confess it
You don’t really wanna see 'em all aggressive
And you don’t really wanna know
Just who you messin’ with
Now tell me what you really wanna do now?
It’s on the table really it’s your move now
All your people man they telling
Me to move out
Was born up in this bitch you got
Me hot ain’t gonna cool down
I'm trapped inside with no ransom
My soul is woke
You being poked by the phantom
They all provoked and turning
Boats ‘cause they can
Don’t stall me bro, and you
Can that ol' Hanson we, never
