9th Wonder
EBONY!
[Intro]
What if I told you the
What if I told you the black woman was god
Yeah

[Verse]
Excuse me miss I saw you across the lane
You so fly this beauty supply should be in your name
I’m talking jail message
Not like jail but a sentence
I’m talking geometrics when did these angles start hitting
You either got it from your momma or your ancestors
In Angola or Zambia
You don’t need to MOP these old mess and old exes that ante up
They should pay attention way more than try to feel you up
Let’s discuss
There’s no ivory without ebony
My favorite magazine growing up wat probably Jet
Becausе all the faces on the front rеminded me of ebony
In 2010 I had a friend her name was ebony
Foundation of my creation is ebony
I met a lady and stopped acting like Bill Bellamy
This black love fill a black tub on a black Friday
Next to black Jesus on granny’s old mantlepieces
This black love like afros in the ‘70s
Top down old Caprices
So where your heart at with it
Open heart surgery stat with it
Strong on ten toes protecting my black women
You like the essence way before ‘rona happened
Screened for you like Ricky right before they started clapping
Boys in the hood now, men that’s understood
Even if we gotta stomp the yard we make it all good
I’m saying
This is rolling out the alter once he finally stop playing
Everybody wanna be like Mike
I wanna be like us
Coco butter mixed with the Elon Musk
We can level on up so what’s up
