Chorus [Nappy roots Lyrics ]
All my life been po' But it really don't matter no mo'
And they wonder why we act this way Nappy Boys gon' be okay
All my life been po' But it really don't matter no mo' And
they wonder why we act this way Nappy Roots gon' be okay,
okay
[Big V]
We came in the game, plain ya see Average man when the
rest was ashamed to be Nappy head and all, ain't no changin
me Ooooh-oh-oh-oooh-oh-oh... So rough it was, downright
wrong I tell ya Nobody never gave us nothin but tough time
and made us somethin Different stretch of road, new somethin
to see Every state on the map, a different somethin to eat
Daps and handshakes, it meant nuttin for real Everybody
makin a killin man, showin no feelins Walkin off collectin
pay, it's the way of the world Can't change it, so I guess
I'm gon' pray for the world Sometimes I ask myself, was
I made for the world? I scream this to you, and I say it
to the world Nappy then, Nappy now - Nappy for a bit Knee-deep,
head over heels in this country shit!
Chorus [ Nappy Roots Lyrics ]
[Skinny DeVille] Even though I picture better days, I'm
thankful for the chance I got to say amen The Lord done
blessed me with his grace, I wish this day would never end
We represent the slums, where we from, we feel they bump
Polish shot off on these presidents, and hardtimes they
go and come Some take up off, without the chance, to make
it at all Who woulda thought Skinny'd be the one that's,
makin this call Lord, help me out, tell me where I went
wrong I'm tryna find a righteous path, although it's, never
been long I gotta do it for my sons, they tellin me, "Daddy
be strong" We gon' make it through these hardtimes
even though they go and they come Ya absolutely right, for
somethin happen to me on last Tuesday night It's plain as
day, man they... with this World Trade Naw brave any order
but confoldure Better make it home when nothin seems to
matter That's when, see, everything can go - any which way
They got me fooled, see the Henny with the J Front po'ch,
chillin broke, country folk, I'm Nappy with my ways yo
Chorus [ Nappy Roots Lyrics ]
[R. Prophit] It's a blessin we woke up this mornin All
my colored folk stressin, come let's join hands Got the
folk with depresses of being po' man Poppa taught me an
order, survive for no man Nappy got some (?) for we gon'
stand Prophit grew from a juvenile to a grown man Ya gotta
take responsibility for ya own man Zonin, two blunts a mo'nin,
by sunrise sometimes I love to hear my woman moanin, it's
on again Damn I hope you play this song again The soul cleansin,
the melody just read my end Not a lot of things but usually
just appendin my lady Been searchin bendin and saw my folks
locked in the tennants And it don't make any sense (why)
children and sentencin Broadcastin from the slums, that's
why I'm writin these sentences Just lower my income, (what)
though we ain't finish it
[Chorus]
