Affirmations
[Intro]
(Artz, what's poppin', my G?)
(B-B-Bugy)

[Chorus]
I-I said if race don't matter, take it off that job application
That rental car application, that credit card application
Them hella bizarre acts of hatred
Don't matter how far back you take it
Take it as Allah's affirmation, it's our saturation

[Verse 1]
America is inherently embracin' them laws that's abrasive
Embarrass us all after makin' the most terrible sought after racists
We never evolved as a nation, facin' them false accusations
Faced with them cards stacked adjacent, painted as carjackers chasin' (Skrrt)
Get-get out of the car, my boy
Whatever, that's y'all fascination
That ghetto had small aspiration
That's rather them bars at away
So that medical, flawed vaccination
Forbes is killin' half the nation, that's called the God assassination
Just 'cause he heard you had a dream
Them petals in all caps are racist
Strip club, the shirt is gabardine
Only difference in Hugh Hefner and Epstein is a dirty magazine
Them friendships that ended in fights are bendin' to crisis
My sister sent here from crisis
Survivin' systems to spend inside
[Chorus]
I said if race don't matter, take it off that job application
That rental car application, that credit card application
Them hella bizarre acts are hatred
Don't matter how far back you take it
Take it as Allah's affirmation, it's our saturation

[Verse 2]
Tiny brothers play hoodlum, who know they gon' go and tell, bro?
Th-they the undercover to the jails, the Hooper go and tell pro
Some case in culture railroads move major blow and elbows
Introduce me to groupies and say "Hello" to Melrose
I rap for those irrational that's gon' run out before the repatch
The match, it go so magical, you gon' be askin' for a rematch
For actin' so theatrical, clapped in a fashion over Ski Mask
You ask was the actor black and gold, ask the ho to speed pass
I make legitimate business decisions, my critics, I'm switchin' the flow up
I learn to drink, and that liqour ain't good for my liver, by sippin' it, so what?
I got a ho, but I don't get, she rolled up, might come for the, roll up my blunt for us
She a show-out, she blowin' my unc' at the show-out in Ankara

[Chorus]
Race don't matter, take it off that job application
That rental car application, that credit card application
Them hella bizarre acts are hatred
Don't matter how far back you take it
Take it as Allah's affirmation, it's our saturation
