lyrics
Grabbing assets, screaming where the cash at/ Leave a stack sitting in my cash app stash that/ Black lawyers on retainer, guns for the danger/ Racist cops killing kids like Margaret Sanger/ See Tamir Rice, hold on for dear life/ Systemic racism will pay a severe price/ Black empowerment, ownership or slave ship/ Everything planned and calculated when we take risks/ Otherwise they'll co-opt the movement/ And we'll forget what we're fighting for like 2 kids/ Back on track, what about the black on black/ The famous distraction of the wack questions they asking
Chorus: 2x
Buy up the block, lock and load
Gotta protect what I control
Buy some stock watch it grow
Building wealth, can't buy my soul
Freedom Freedom, that bell ringing I smell freedom/ Shooting for it like Dick Cheney in quail season/ A man free born, I could never be a slave/ And even when the heat on I could never be afraid/ Colder than denver holding a temper aye/ Bid on a crib and see what my lender say/ Buying real estate, love too hard to feel the hate/ Move with grace, authentic embraced will kill the fake/ knowledge of self, these devils can't oppress me/ If being dope was a sport I would win an Espy/ Black excellence, my presence is immaculate/ And I'm wealth building, while you spend it, boy I'm stacking it
Chorus: 2x
Buy up the block, lock and load
Gotta protect what I control
Buy some stock watch it grow
Building wealth, can't buy my soul
As the dust settles, my tongue break through chains, my thoughts cut metal/ My drive is always automatic never clutch petals/ Flying through your hood in something basic/ Saving up this paper it's amazing, come on and pay rent this real estate I play with/ I'm God's favorite, the blessings I earned, the lessons I learned/ Atl chic I dated, invested, got burned/ She hung around some entertainers, she messy I turned/ A new chapter, collecting paper like a pastor/ Creflo Dollar, TD Jakes, Jamal Bryant some dark iron to keep me safe/ I'm grinding, but you never gonna see me break/ My life, is like a movie get your 3D shades/ On, your vision get blurred on density 3rd/ I'm so gifted mentally I'ma free these slaves - uh (yeah)
