Artist: David Banner f/ Big Rube, Raheem DeVaughn Album: The God Box Song: AK Typed by: AZ Lyrics [Raheem DeVaughn] Got a bullet with my name on it They're trying to blow my back out They use my block for their target practice Make me want to scream and shout Forty days became forty nights Grandma use to bow her head and pray Sometimes I feel like Noah on that ark With my finger on the AK, AK, AK [David Banner] I'm from the land of the K-K-K, where the AKs spray Where your baby mama sell 30 Rock like Tina Fey eh Where the cops blind to us dying, like Charles's first name Ray Where the slaves were made, graves were filled Where the trill still build, where the pills will make you feel a little better But the pain won't go away, where my uncle used to say "I stopped smoking crack", but then he went back relapsed My whole family collapsed it hurts to talk about that And when I go back my girl be like, "Baby what's the rush?" I'm like, "Last time I checked, who gave a fuck about us?" Mississippi 'til I die they put my body in dust I wipe my ass with the rebel flag, ain't giving a fuck I'ma stand for my land it's the place I'm from Where your grandmammy was born but you're scared to come I'ma stand for my land it's the place I'm from Where your grandmammy was born but you're scared to come [Raheem DeVaughn] Got a bullet with my name on it (bullet with my name on it) Trying to blow my back out (yeah yeah) They use my block for their target practice (it amaze me) Make me want to scream and shout Forty days became forty nights (forty nights forty days) Grandma use to bow her head and pray (Lord) Sometimes I feel like Noah on that ark With my finger on the AK, AK, AK [David Banner] I'm from a place that ain't the average rat race, least not for the black race American Dream some of these cats chase Gotta fact face I mean face facts Some of these white folks hate blacks just for trying to take back What they hijacked way back trying to stay black Put our fortune in the wheels like Sajak Say black, you know where I stay at? Marvin Gaye still blasting out my 8-Track Got a stomach full of turkey necks and pork fat That's a snack got a play back In my head, infinite rewind Children be crying, them pigs they be lying See I see more crime than sunshine Fuck one time, yeah I said it, "Fuck one time" Let me say it two times because any justice we do find Comes in due time, that's why I got me a new nine My nig, I'm through trying cause all my crew dying While they're eating steak and croutons and Grey Poupon These pigs ain't fond of us Especially when your skin got some pigment Granny told me to find happiness but that's just a figment If you stand like a man then they callin' you ignant Is it naive on Christmas to call Santa a bigot And I pray that you dig it suppose they bury me But my child's grave I'ma dig it, I'm a slave cause they rigged it I'ma stand like a man it's the place I'm from Where your grandpappy was born but you're scared to come I'ma stand like a man it's the place I'm from Where your grandpappy was born but you're scared to come [Raheem DeVaughn] Got a bullet with my name on it (bullet with my name on it) Trying to blow my back out (tryna blow my back out, blaow) They use my block for their target practice (I don't know why) Make me want to scream and shout Forty days became forty nights Grandma use to bow her head and pray Sometimes I feel like Noah on that ark With my finger on the AK, AK, AK (with my hand on my AK, AK, AK) Got a bullet with my name on it (bullet with my name on it) Trying to blow my back out (yeah tryna blow my back out) Use my block for their target practice (kill my people for target practice) Make me want to scream and shout (make me want to scream and shout) Forty days became forty nights (forty days and forty nights) Grandma use to bow her head and pray (grandma bowed her head and prayed) Sometimes I feel like Noah on that ark (sometimes I feel like Noah) With my finger on the AK, AK, AK (AK, AK) [Big Rube] I'm from a place where they hung us from peach trees and dogwoods Now we hang on streets paved with enslaved souls still saying "It's all good" The dirt is red and turned muddy from sweat, tears and blood Of our great great grand parents so respect been earned for it You best show it, cause those who don't are just mocking the very core Of what our people stood, sat in, marched, laid down and died for Laid down their lives for, all of us so let's discuss what we should feel pride for When the last time you threatened the life of a white man But look how quick we tell a brother we'll murk him right where he stand Can't stand for the bullshit if I'm breathing a little bit My AK with the full clip is the staff and I'm Moses Parting the minds ocean with a prose swarm like locust Erupt from the past mantle with a flow passed to dismantle The damage that's been done 'fore a nigga was even born So whether the buildings are real tall or the fields are real wide The south's my real home so I'm speaking from real pride As I stand cause I'm a man and this is the place I'm from Our people suffered in this land and now ya'll scared to come
