Kappa Kappa Gamma (Ode to Misconceptions)
[Verse 1: Dorian]
Kappa Kappa Gamma
Met her husband in college
Cause she had a pretty face
And her body was flawless
Now her marriage is a sham
No morals and lawless
Through the walls
She can hear the voice of Christopher Wallace
As her son is on YouTube trying to find himself
He can’t handle the pressures that come with
Generational wealth
Mom too distant
No relationship with Dad
Baby sister cuts herself
Cause she’s so fuckin sad
His friends got a hard time feeling sorry for him
Cuz when his Granddaddy died
He left him 15 M’s
Shut up rich boy
Don’t want to hear your trials
Got more dollars in your checking than our cars got miles
Dad’s a coke addict
Side bitches galore
Last week he found him bloodshot red on the floor
Stumbled in the house drunk
Calling his wife whore
She replied
Fuck you
I can’t take it anymore
She ran out the house crying and slammed the door
Nobody asks any questions
Because she’s done this before
Finding a reason to leave
Is the essence of her core
She’s had a lover on the side since 2004
Introduced him to her kids as Uncle Mouse
Until they caught Uncle Mouse’s hands up Mom’s blouse
Son was close to Mouse
He used to pick him up from school
But what Mom don’t know
Is Mouse touched him too
Questioning who he is
He hangs with the gay kids at school
But they can see right through
That his desires aren’t true
The outcast of outcasts
Felt there’s no other option
Big Boy went and did 3000 milligrams of pill popping
Tears rolling down his face
He sits at the foot of his bed
Looking up at the sky
Thinking God don’t understand
He’s got daddy’s .45 pointed right at his head
Closes his eyes and says
I wish I was fuckin dead
[Hook]
(Where you from)
And it don’t matter
Really really don’t matter
And it don’t matter
None of this shit matters
(What you’ve done)
And it don’t matter
Really really don’t matter
And it don’t matter
None of this shit matters
(Where you been)
And it don’t matter
Really really don’t matter
And it don’t matter
None of this shit matters
(All your sins)
And it don’t matter
Really really don’t matter
And it don’t matter
None of this shit matters
[Verse 2]
Now I’m a take you to a place the TV cameras won’t show
Ride through the neighborhood the pizza man won’t even go
N***as standing outside
Like the Secret Service
Peaking in every car window
Making sure you got a purpose
Soundtrack of dogs barking
As you walk up to the house
Gotta rub two wires together to figure the doorbell out
Every porch is occupied
With two chairs or a couch
Got bars on all the windows to keep the crackheads out
Whole foods?
What the fuck is that?
Look around my n***a
Welcome to the trap
Nickname for the hood to let you know what they about
Coincidentally it fits
Cause most will never get out
When you walk into her house
She make you take your shoes off
Got pictures of great achievers all over her walls
Mama working three jobs
Just to keep her kids fed
In addition to collecting assistance checks from the feds
Daddy left the family when baby girl was just 12
But she ain’t use that as a reason to lose herself
4.2 GPA
She stay studying hard
She’s prize of the hood
18 with her v-card
Little bro learning how to be a man in these streets
But he ain’t worried about beats
Or what he can do with his feet
He’s channeling his energy
To educate one day
Big homies keep him protected
They know his Mama don’t play
Dining room table takes up the whole kitchen
Get sides from Popeye’s
She fries her own chicken
Although it’s cramped
None of them wishes
It was different
Cause the love they feel
Too many others are missing
Mama asked her youngest what he did today at school
They laughed so much
Sounded like old Comicview
Mama pauses in the midst to reflect and reminiscence
And asks
What did I do
To get blessed like this
[Hook]
[Bridge]
Whether you live in a McMansion
Or a double wide trailer
Minimum wage at McDonald’s
Or Mickey Arison is your neighbor
Maslow was right
We all need the same things
No matter what you achieve
Your problems never going leave
Cause n***as either gassing or hating
Ain’t no in between like Heaven or Satan
Bitches either gassing or hating
Ain’t no in between like Heaven or Satan
N***as either gassing or hating
Ain’t no in between like Heaven or Satan
Bitches either gassing or hating
Ain't no in between like Heaven or Satan
[Hook]
