[Intro: JID]

[00:00.93](See the storm)

[00:02.33]Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, uh

[00:03.35](Over there)

[00:04.46]Yeah-yeah, uh

[00:05.97](Here it comes)

[00:07.39]****, check, dawg

[00:07.91]
[Verse 1: JID]

[00:08.83]Take a chance, have faith, my lad

[00:10.92]You got all of the same tools all the greats have had

[00:13.56]Two eyes, two ears, one mouth, two hands

[00:16.46]You can watch, listen more than you speak, take advantage

[00:19.55]You peep all the karma that come with makin' the cream

[00:22.35]The crop, full of demons providin' you what you need

[00:25.0]They got, what's your thing? Alcohol or the lean?

[00:28.2]Put the coke inside the weed, them niggas seasonin' the greens

[00:30.73]Rap game turned from the slingers to the fiends

[00:33.71]But I'm in between, I mean

[00:35.42]I ain't pickin' teams, but I had a dream like King

[00:38.0]****in' on this pretty little bi-, queen, I mean

[00:40.97]Point me to the cheese, niggas talkin' cream

[00:43.40]Park the car, I'm 'bout to part the seas

[00:45.55]And move a mountain for money, nothing keepin' me

[00:48.13]From gettin' to you, gettin' to me, Marvin G, Tammi T

[00:50.69]But get your eyes cleaned for something you have never not, not seen

[00:53.65]
[Bridge]

[00:55.23]Okay, well

[00:55.98]Prior to coming to Tuskegee (Uh)

[00:57.6]From high school I went to college here, then Tuskegee Institute

[00:59.63]While in college I had a professor that I really impressed with

[01:05.83]He got me interested into politics

[01:08.21]He was the first black (Uh) councilman in the city of Tuskegee (Check)

[01:09.57]
[Verse 2: JID]

[01:10.93]Take a chance, have faith, my lad

[01:13.30]You got all of the same tools all the greats have had

[01:16.4]Maybe lesser than that

[01:17.88]Way back when I was puttin' on my football hat

[01:20.31]This institution came recruitin' little Route for the stats

[01:23.27]They sat me in a room with my dad

[01:26.7]And it was cool but when they left I was glad

[01:27.29]And my pops was too, he said that's good-ass parenting

[01:30.21]Reminding me 'bout that place that did them nigga experiments

[01:33.31]On them black people, sharecroppers, down in Alabama, damn

[01:36.38]It's not that far from Atlanta, it was the 1930s

[01:39.22]They did them black folks dirty because a tan

[01:41.86]A man was not a man, nigga, your granny wasn't grand

[01:44.60]A scam into the plan to go recruit a group of stupid niggas

[01:47.62]And shoot them up with syphilis instead of shoot to kill 'em

[01:50.74]That's stupid different

[01:52.2]The lengths that y'all trip to catch a nigga slippin' and for what?

[01:55.11]'Cause we look different?

[01:55.88]
[Bridge]

[01:56.36]Everyone with knowledge of that study (Let us keep rockin' this shit)

[01:59.39]Would be terrified

[02:01.81]But that study represents and demonstrated

[02:04.90]The inhumanity of man to mankind (Yeah, yeah, yeah, ah, ****)

[02:09.49]I often say that

[02:10.39]Look

[02:10.87]
[Verse 3: JID]

[02:13.99]Take a chance, have faith, you in last place

[02:16.34]Take a stand but don't take the stand for your man's sake

[02:18.99]Just a dad tryna put some ham on a damn plate

[02:21.93]I'll be damned, I don't feed the fam', nigga (Damn straight)

[02:24.93]Elbow rubs and handshakes

[02:27.34]From hands that tied ropes on necks in red states

[02:29.97]Another dead black-ass man, I need a damn break

[02:33.21]They never gave us a chance, I had to take it

[02:36.11]I need all the payments, for every day we suffered all the hatred

[02:38.81]I want my granny to shoot the hands with Nancy Reagan

[02:41.87]I want emancipation

[02:43.8]Standin' naked at the auction with my dick out, hanging for reparations

[02:46.84]No matter how much I say it, they ain't hearin' my voice

[02:49.80]'Cause as long as them crackers payin', you ain't much of a choice

[02:52.62]And you can shoot a million Js, you'll prolly never be Jordan

[02:55.59]Nigga ran for a million yards, you still forty acres short

[02:56.61]
[Outro]

[02:59.5]See the storm

[03:01.35]Over there

[03:04.31]Here it comes
