[Chorus]
Talk to me now, speak loud and clear
Talk to me now, speak loud and clear (Say)
Talk to me now, speak loud and clear
Where would I be if I was not here?
American Horror Story
Horror, Horror Story
Talk to me now, speak loud and clear
Where would I fly if I was not here?
American Horror Story
Horror Story
Set, set, set me free
Set me free (Horror Story)
Set, set me free (Yeah)
Set me (Check it out)
[Verse 1: Johnny Venus]
Once upon a time across the far and wide
Blue abyss, the first people known to Earth thrived
Then one day a ship docked with evil intentions
That would change the course of the world and shape our lives
Stuck over here like four hundred years
Stayed iced out through the pain and my tears
Ice in my veins, ice in my ears
b*tch give me brain, I can not deal
Kids on the block, they getting killed
Wimbledon style when will it end?
I mean for real, real, real
Really for real, real, real
Grandaddy's, grandaddy was poor
First ni**a in my family with dough-oh (Oh)
I raise everybody up from the floor-oh (Floor)
Flippin' the generational curse, coco
ni**as can't fu*k with me, ah
b*tches can't fu*k with me, ah
What about the police come at my crib and shoot me up
Life hard enough, just think about rent
Could have bought my freedom all the money I spent, yeah
And that's some sh*t, yeah
I mean for real, all this money we got it, we still can't help Flint, yeah
Don't get me wrong I still pull up the latest and floss on a b*tch
But I hate see all my ni**as get shot up, that sh*t don't make sense, yeah
God damn, I could help you if you stop trippin' so much
Baby girl, I can't save you but I can sure lift you up
Left cheek, right cheek, woo
Make them clap and come together like so icy, ooh
Still a lil' ratchet, still a lil' bougie, still a lil' dicey, ooh
Cousin in the navy, pops in the army, still I take mine-y, woo
Waitin' for somebody in the White House to say but sh*t ain't likely
[Chorus]
Talk to me now, speak loud and clear
Where would I be if I was not here?
American Horror Story (Horror Story)
Horror, Horror Story
Say
Talk to me now, speak loud and clear (Loud and clear)
Where would I fly if I was not here?
American Horror Story
Horror Story
Set, set, set me free
Set me free (Horror Story)
Set, set me free (Yeah)
Set me
[Verse 2: Doctur Dot]
There goes the neighborhood (Wow, that's crazy people really used to say that, that's funny 'cause now)
Now they coming back to take the hood (Hmm, funny how things change)
Meanwhile, I'm just trying to get my finances up
So I can buy my whole damn block
Been bumping Nipsey a whole damn lot
Tryna make sh*t shake [?] like you know what it's 'bout
Seat at the tables sound so amazing
I'd rather bring you to my cookout
[?] lit tiki torches
Talkin' ni**as joining forces
[?] the resources
Brothers shinin', sister gorgeous
Show the kids how we did it
Better books, better courses (Ah)
Teachers gotta make a living
Test scores more important (Ah)
How the system get rewarded
All of my ni**as with heavy pockets
Don't be acting snobby 'cause you already got it
Some of y'all ni**as so woke it's ironic
You really be ignorant 'cause of your knowledge
Look down on your brother 'cause you went to college
Or you got the perfect collection of rocks and stones
And gems that soak up the mood
Say you're open minded, know it ain't true
And I don't like preaching, it ain't what I do
I usually observe, I just start making moves
fu*k what you heard
The option we choose
I hold what we got and did something new
America worst nightmare come true
Pray over this verse hope you break through
Pour up the liquor and mix the juice
And crank this up at your barbecue
[Chorus]
Talk to me now, speak loud and clear
Where would I be if I was not here?
American Horror Story
Horror, Horror Story
Say
Talk to me now, speak loud and clear
Where would I fly if I was not here?
American Horror Story
Horror Story
Set, set, set me free
Set me free (Horror Story)
Set, set me free
Set me
