Huh my grandmama was raised on a reservation[00:00:20]
Huh my great grandmama was from a plantation[00:00:25]
They sang songs for inspiration[00:00:29]
They sang songs for relaxation[00:00:31]
They sang songs to take their minds up off that[00:00:34]
F**ked up situation[00:00:37]
I am yes I am the descendant yes yes[00:00:39]
Of those folks whose backs got broke[00:00:45]
Who fell down inside the gun smoke[00:00:49]
Black people chains on their ankles and feet[00:00:52]
I am descendants of the builders of your street[00:00:57]
Black people tenders to your cotton money[00:01:04]
I am hip hop[00:01:08]
It's heavy metal for the black people[00:01:12]
I am rock and roll rock and roll rock 'n' roll[00:01:14]
Been here forever[00:01:20]
