lyrics

Oooo, what you want from me?
I’m the man on my land like I’m supposed to be
You want me dead? That’s a no for me!
I am the land, you a local b!
Ayy, what you want from me?
I’m the man on my land like I’m supposed to be
Murder she wrote on a note for me
“Red Sky at Night” there’s hope for me

Love, please help me! there’s a killer on the lose tryna skelp me
We ain’t safe in the streets from the people or police or the system put in place for the wealthy
No Justice, no peace, we’re dying in the belly of the beast
It don’t matter who was shot when a white mans got “Bloody Hands, Bloody Feet”

Lets flip it for a minute, I’m the one who pulled the trigger on a young white victim
And admitted that I did it, tell me would I be acquitted, would they keep me out of prison, oh no no no and the difference
Oh Klanada, I ain’t mad at cha, you were born this way on some savage shit
What you put us through, made me savage boo, so don’t shoot me down while I pray

I pray
I pray
I pray
I pray

Old spirits don’t never die, Red Sky At Night
Where we from we don’t say goodbye, Red Sky At Night
Oh baby, don’t wipe your eyes, Red Sky At Night
By morning baby, the sun will rise, Red Sky At Night

God damnit who that savage (Woo!)
Sorry not sorry that’s me
Imma tell you what an OG told me
“Don’t you be a tugueye”
That fucking guy..ok

I been running shit in my moccasins
all ‘cross country, call it Terry Fox’in
Baby I’m a one of kind, Kurt Cobain, Nevermind
All my dawgs bonafide, M-I-N-A-Y, WOO!

Yeah, you feel em when I hit em with the riddim of the drum, drummer boy, sing that shit loud (YI YI YI)
Ow ow, pow wow wow heyaho heyahey lil minay’s in the house (YI YI YI)
Stand up, fight back, run it back – land back my forever mood now (YI YI YI)
You see minays all around, 50 shades of the brown, ow owww

Yeah, I don’t see it to believe it, I believe it so I can see it
Neechidamus, got a vision
Biggie told me sky’s the limit, now a youngin’ got no ceilings
I been handling my business so mind your fuckin business

I’m unapologetically indigenous, I’m limitless
I been like this, my hair game been stupid and ridiculous
The difference is your ignorance
So no apologizing for my excellence
And you can never question the resilience haa

SNRK
All day everyday

Old spirits don’t never die, Red Sky At Night
Where we from we don’t say goodbye, Red Sky At Night
Oh baby, don’t wipe your eyes, Red Sky At Night
By morning baby, the sun will rise, Red Sky At Night
