Mortal Man

Uh I'm just mortal man Yeah Uh, I gotta talk to em one time I'm back on that shit man I'm just mortal man From the roots of the soil sand Know my purpose more than grand Come from a royal land with a joyful brand Somehow my legacy was tarnished and now I here I stand Son of yah I ain't know son of Sam And I ain't step and fetch 'em nigga I won't do the dance Better go tell all yo friends that there's a change of plans Trynna help my fellow man see a different lens Slave master grave Is what I'm pissing in Cuz what my granny's mama lived through Was sickening Corporate America Still getting whippings in That's why you won't catch me voting for no president Cuz I'm just mortal Doing what I can I'm just who I am Yeah, I don't rep no brand I'm just who I am I'm just who I am I'm just who I am I'm just who I am 2023 goin' nat turner Malcom X peak the blinds grab the burner Niggas praying for reparations I'm done with waiting What could you pay me? A billion would be understatement My ancestors pain sounds like the thunder breaking 300 years is falling too in love with patience I put my trust in yah And pray my faith is never braking But I'm still fighting for my cause please don't be mistaken Cuz I'm just mortal Doing what I can I'm just who I am Yeah, I don't rep no brand I'm just who I am I'm just who I am I'm just who I am I'm just who I am So whats the role of mortal man Do I throw my hands up And pray for a better plan Niggas selling out playin coon for a couple bands Moves outta greed will get you slapped with destructive hands You could get ya family out bricks by selling bricks or pick strap up Or try to be the perfect nigga tap dancing for massa Or start revolution all black men strapped up It's sad to say the opposition always seem to catch up Cuz I'm just mortal Doing what I can I'm just who I am Yeah, yeah I don't rep no brand I'm just who I am I'm just who I am I'm just who I am I'm just who I am
