Slave Son

Lyrics

[Verse 1] My grandpops was a slave And workin' with the sheeps He took no crap He went to bat for his peeps Like, "Massa, I know You don't cares what we think But it's hot as hell And all the slaves need a drink" Sometime they gave him props They know pops Don't play none Plus his whole family was a slave From day one Moms was sick They made her still pick cotton Comin' home crying 'Cause her fingertips rotten Papa went wack So they whipped his back Beat him ninety times And left him tied to the tracks Now they sit around And watch 'em drink And crack jokes Ready to kill 'em all Thе way they laugh At black folks Girls is like twelvе And the masters still rape 'em Now they can't figure Why the niggas still hate 'em But slaves overcame Them two the brave ones All we needed was the freedom Of a slave son [Chorus] Wade in the water Wade in the water, children Wade in the water God said He's gonna trouble the water [Verse 2] It's not different In this world I was brung in We still got slaves Like when my gramps was a youngin Just now we carjack Sellin' keys of crack When you pull up at a light You gotta watch your back But if I see one I'm puttin' 'em to rest 'Cause he dumb Wanna snatch chains We was tryna break free from Picture me a slave "Hey, massa they's trippin' Give us some pig guts So they can make chitlins" He don't give a fuck Tonight he eatin' baked chicken Then come and take the kids 'cause master rape children I can't let him do that to her I will straight kill him Sometime peace and death Is better than pain livin' Now skip to 2023 I might get shot joggin' So I still don't feel free I ain't scared of nothing I ain't never gon' run And my blood pump the blood Of a Slave Son [Chorus] Wade in the water Wade in the water, children Wade in the water God said He's gonna trouble the water
