[Verse 1]
Always penny-pinching
Tryna close the distance
Black folk, white folk, can't deny the quickest
Cashout, tryna cop some Jordans
But you can barely afford it
Stop flexing out of a mortgage
This beat is way out of orbit
Put some respect on my penmanship
New school but it's old testament
Tryna cop some slides from the wild flowin' store
Gettin' profiled dawg
I work hard for my money
I got melanin for when it's sunny
Day and night like it's Kid Cudi
[Chorus]
Wes, Wes, Wes, out west and
Black and I'm proud, melanin is a blessing
Wes, Wes, Wes, out west and
Black and I'm proud, melanin is a blessing
Wes, Wes, Wes, out west and
Black and I'm proud, melanin is a blessing
Wes, Wes, Wes, out west and
Don't play with me
[Verse 2]
I don't rock with racism
I'm made i his image like plagiarism
I'm black and I'm proud (Let's go!)
Say it loud
808s slide like you jumpin' on your grandma's couch
Moflo Music in the sound
He took the sample and made it bounce
Tryna use the platform to educate the masses
Jesus comin' back, why you livin' like it's practice?
Pay my dues, pay my tithe, pay my taxes
Pop culture tryna put a price on my blackness
[Chorus]
Wes, Wes, Wes, out west and
Black and I'm proud, melanin is a blessing
Wes, Wes, Wes, out west and
Black and I'm proud, melanin is a blessing
Wes, Wes, Wes, out west and
Black and I'm proud, melanin is a blessing
Wes, Wes, Wes, out west and
Don't play with me
