lyrics

As tha smoke goes thru my nose
Dis one for my folk datz juss not here
Although I kno datz tha flesh
Rite now I hear dem in my ear
Spirit call it holy ghost
See our locks we grow our hair
I can show yu really how it goes
In belly of tha beast it's juss not fair
It's Nuttin new unda tha sun
Dis iz all old
Yu ain't gotta think
Many of us died in dis hoe
Take dat to tha bank
We wuz lied and wus told
We all wuz slaves
Brought here and was sold
Even if dat was true
What about before
We can talk about King Tutt
And tha Pharaohs
Or off in temple wit
Solomon gold and
Tha King of Kings
Datz from Ethio

Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
We come frum
A Long Line of Real Niggaz

Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
We come frum
A Long Line of Real Niggaz

See, how can I brang myself
To look at chu da same
Wen I kno
U not equivalent
Wit all deez lames
I feel I owe u an apology
So let me say dis
You always been on sum
Grown Man Real Nigga Shit
And I kno ware I git it frum
I kno who you are
I kno whutchu represent
And I kno frum whut Star
So itz not surprisin
Wen I realized when
How David slayed
Fuk ass Goliath
Cuz it's on da battlefield
See deez Niggaz wuz built
Equipped fo da quicksand
Nestled in quilts
Ain't no fear in me Nigga
See, my fate is sealed
Down wit da Real Niggaz I'll go
Let's make it clear
And by dat decision
Up wit da Realest Nigga I'll be
Selassie I The First Nigga
Yeah, datz da King
No need to cry Nigga
Jus bury me a G
A soldier
In da Royal Ethiopian Army

Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
We come frum
A Long Line of Real Niggaz

Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
Long, Long, Long, Long, Long
We come frum
A Long Line of Real Niggaz

So wit da Powers
I stand bold
Extendin' from a lineage
Which is gold
By way of my own merit
No, no
The Ancient untold Souls
Days of old
So hav a seat
Pull up a chair
Witness di occurring
Of faith and flare
Shit gitz to turnin
Cuz I dontz care
My Truth be Sojournin
So fuck ya fear

Go off in time
Guess wat we gone be there
Reppin dis real shit
While othaz wont dare
No fear don't even think yu can scare
Tha ones who speak tha truth
And burn fyah in tha air
We only got a lil time
In dis bitch here
Comin from a long a line
Datz rich Imma heir
Gotta sho tha jitz
Wat it iz and be clear
Learn about dis truth
And kno dis journey
So rare
