I write for the forgotten ma**es Pa**ing through life studying hard Yet failing cla**es In a school rigged by Malicious tactics not fiction, fact is Most of what we see is controlled by the unseen So everything isn't always what it seems History repeats itself so what is Is already what has been Like the correlation between Vietnam And Afghanistan giving money to Pakistan Situation crazy Like Eminem"s fan Stan And American people switched off Rather than being pissed off Soldiers and their families Trying to be tough but feeling left in the dust Money leaking war cause companies like Halliburton Are money-stealing who*es s** a dick of the GOV Just give them enough No cash get a shove Pay up get the love Obama's promises coming up empty Well let me fill you with truth The story of this forgotten war Is what I spit in the booth No ounce left of couth To know where the blame should be put Trace the problem to it's root Accountability is missing Like an 80 years old tooth Chorus : Tales of the forgotten is what I am trying to tell The opposite of heaven is their hell Hard to keep the faith look what they did to Sean Bell Tales of the forgotten is what I am trying to tell x2 Arrival in this country at age of fourteen Happy yet an angry teen I guess you could call my personality split screen
Living in Flint, Michigan Where beef pops off or hook their lives on hoop dreams Such a story is piercing Depressed houses on roads of Saginaw and Pierson Poverty and crime a dangerous pairing With the old people tearing Up saying it was all-good 20 years ago Why did GM have to go? I tell you their story so you know Why I rep Flint Michigan in every single flow Lagos birth me, Flint seasoned me So am a tale of 2 cities 2 gritty f** the pretty Got them bouncing to my music Like double d titties My lyrics hit like a h**n fix Metaphors split your thoughts Like a bar of Twix No gimmicks or tricks Venom is what I spit Got naysayers green poison ivy It's the Nigerian nightmare motherf**er Not many like me, ask me if I am rolling Well b**h I might be Transcend boundaries like the high seas If he's funeral fab then am lyrical lab Cooked up potions just to take a dab My music on your head like an hijab Know am dope but I love it when you tell me Am in New York like Semi Trying to get an Ashton like Demi Drop the H then you get me It's the Nigerian Nightmare Never forget me! Chorus Tales of the forgotten is what I am trying to tell The opposite of heaven is their hell Hard to keep the faith look what they did to Sean Bell Tales of the forgotten is what I am trying to tell x2
