AfricAryaN (feat. Neil deGrasse Tyson and J. Cole)

I feel the Aryan in my blood, it's scarier than a Blood

Been looking for holy water, now I’m praying for a flood

It feel like time passing me by slower than a slug

While this feeling inside of my body seep in like a drug

Will you hug me, rub me on the back like a child?

Tell me you love me, need me

Promise me you’ll never leave me

Even though my daddy, you know he blacker than the street

With a fist to match, more solid than concrete

Tell white people I’m black, feel the need to retreat

Like I should be ashamed of my granddaddy Malik

But my beautiful black brothers and sisters

Want to act like I’m adopted

Go back in time to when my nigga daddy

Impregnated my cracker momma and stopped it

My oh my (my oh my)

Oh my (my oh my)

I said oh my (oh my)

Somebody pinch me

Black man screaming, trying to convince me I’m not black

So why the white man wanna lynch me?

Damn, my skin fair but life’s not

And I'd be lying if I said I didn’t care what whites thought

Or black people said, shit

Maybe it’s in my head

Like a single mother praying In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida

Looking around on the ground for a serpent to feed her

Praying to God, wondering why her baby daddy beat her

Feeling like the devil finna come and defeat her

All alone in the wintertime, close to the heater

Wondering what’s gonna happen

And how the world gonna treat her

How could her momma mislead her

And her daddy just leave her?

Like abracadabra when that magician pull on the lever

Oh my

Oh my

(Oh my) like the white women said oh my

Oh my, my, my, my, my

Ohhh

Oh my, my, my, my, my

Oh my

I don’t feel right deep inside

Feeling like I need to hide

Everybody wonder why I get high

'Cause I can’t fight the feeling inside

Oh my, my, my

Oh my, I said oh my, yeah

Feeling innocent in a sense has got me feeling on the fence

And all this shit is so intense

Don’t wanna go to this event

Just wanna stay home and invent

And somehow, yeah, that let me vent

I’m taking shots and drinking liquor

But that shit don’t make a dent in how I’m feeling

And yes I’m willing to keep chilling on this shit

I know there's someone out there far away

Who's feeling all this shit

And yes I know that when I’m low

There's so much further I can go

And so I look up to the sky

Oh my, oh my

Oh my, oh my

(Oh my, oh my) oh my, oh my

(Oh my, oh my) oh my, oh my

(I said oh)

I feel the Aryan in my blood, it's scarier than a Blood

Been looking for holy water, now I’m praying for a flood

It feel like time passing me by slower than a slug

Sometimes I can’t get you out of my mind

Baby, no I just can’t find, I just can’t find

Such a beautiful state of mind

Beautiful state of mind, such a beautiful state of mind

Beautiful state of mind

Sometimes everyday right on time

But right now in my mind

It feels like I'm living on borrowed time

I feel the Aryan in my blood, it's scarier than a Blood

Oh my

So what now?

What advice can you give me?

What advice can I give humanity?

I suppose so

Live your life

Don’t waste your days on the negative energy of others

Remember that you’re not your salary

You’re not your house you’re not your car

And no matter how big your bank account is

Your grave is six feet under just like everyone else’s

So enjoy the days you have

Worry not bout the days that came before you

Nor the ones that will follow you in death

Remember that right here in this moment is all you are guaranteed

And the fact that you are living is what life is all about

So live your life to the fullest

According to your happiness and the betterment of all

Damn man, we’ve been walking forever

Well, Thalias tracking system says we’ll be there in just over an hour

Shit, at least we got good walking music or is that it?

Oh no, man

I’m cueing up the fourth album now, his final one

One, two, three, four

One, two, three, four, listen

Look into my eyes

Tell me you could see beyond the smile that I'm puttin' on

This front that I'm puttin' up for you

I spill my soul into a microphone

With poems written in blood

In hopes that it's enough for you

Do you love me yet?

Do you love me yet?

No? Okay

I'll go harder for you

In fact, I rap till I collapse

All I wanted was acceptance, my latest lesson

I'll never feel your approval till I accept my own

Come from a messed up home, destitute and less informed

About the ways to raise a child up

To not become a product

Of his environment, I need to cry and vent

But I done built this wall up

Actin' like everything's all good

But in reality I'm lookin' for something

Through bumpin' my favorite rappers I came up after

Nas, Cole, and Hov

Eyes closed, I zone till five or so in the morn'

I'm used to being alone

Shit, you know how long I've been out on my own?

Chasing dreams, fantasies of a throne

One day I wake up and see that it didn't exist all along

Till then I will pen verses that fans consider brilliant

Boosting my ego with every million that spills in

And still then

I won't find solace, so where's the logic in that?

Worrying 'bout if they think Logic could rap

When it all goes back to a childhood, need to be loved

By parents that was in too deep with the drugs

Nigga, my advice, fuck the black and white shit

Be who you are, identify as a star

No one tells you you're that

It's something that you just know

The world be stealing your glow

Your mama did what she could

Her life was miles from good

Your father fell in the trap

They set for you when you black

They met when they was low

And therefore you a product of that

And so your trauma is deep

Don't bury it you should weep

And clean it out of your system, then truly forgive 'em

Just my opinion, only then can you find peace

Just start to notice happiness don't come from album release

I've been through it before

Can only share with you what I know

To be true, but at the same time, I'll never be you

And you'll never be me, no matter how hard that you try

This is for youngins out there wondering how far you can fly

The truth is that you could go further than the stars and the sky

But if you want to then you ought to know why

Are you running from something

With hopes of becoming someone

That's finally worthy of love

Let me tell you now, you're worthy enough

Fuck approval from strangers, that shit is dangerous as hell

Find God, learn to accept yourself

And I'm gone, accept Him
