about

Although not the first song I've written, it is the first song I've ever recorded. In retrospect, the song is important to me as it is a direct reflection of the mind of a 19 yr old kid finding himself and growing into his own. I hope you guys appreciate it as much as I do. Enjoy

lyrics

Throw ya motha fuckin fists up! Get'em high!

I don't gotta go off the dome to ease my mind. I write my rhymes. That's the way I free my style. Dear mama, you know I'm sorry for the drama but I'm tryna make black history like Obama. If my life was a sentence, then I need a comma. Fuck bush. I'm the black Osama. Except for the fact that when I bomb ya, I ain't gonna hide in a cave I'm brave. I'll stand with my fist up and celebrate. In the hood where I come from, the panthers is Santa. Fuck a gift for Christmas. Give me the answer. To aids racism and cancer. That's some shit we could free this land from but most of all we could free the black man from.
