lyrics

You are the masterpiece
You are the melody
You are the harmony
Every symphony
You are the resource
You are the gold rush
You are a Prince
I love us

To dream in color us
Was on a short bus
Handicapped life
Bussin with them lies tucked
Over the intercom
On scantron
It’s public schoolin for Jamarcus and dem Antwon’s
work of grand scale
Young Black Male
I am the masterpiece at moma that you can’t sell
Beyond the whitew gaze
I feel a slight craze
When I walk in rooms
Lighting up a dark cave
I grew up on toons
Looney
Plus dem arcades
I am Uncle Luke
World full a world Darth Vaders
Pop in the Maxell
Vernon maxwell
How I snap on the world
Cuz i rap well
For my set tripping
Nutty Block crippin
Piru loving
Reebok and white Tees
Blood type Oui
God like We
Black like me
All in the same gang

You are the masterpiece
You are the melody
You are the harmony
Every symphony
You are the resource
You are the gold rush
You are a Prince (family)
I love us




I know your panties wet but will this the pain stop
You prolly never dreamt of candy coated raindrops
Until you pulled up on a real one
Then ya heart stopped
That was soul for real baby
Fuck a heart throb
I’m down to rock her body as i turn this hottie out
I asked if I could then I ate the pussy out
Ebony Queen
You the worlds wet dream
Over sexualized
The prize of a true king
seems
As a jit sipping backwash
Staring at ya cat walk
thang swayed lovely
That’s when I fell in love with thee
Wanted to protect you
Always did respect you
Cuz You my fuckin back bone
So How can I neglect you
Sheba in the flesh
K I must confess
Had a school boy crush
On ya pretty princess
Went away to famu
Laywer
God approved
So I dedicate this bar
To a very special boo
