(Yeah)
The KKK burned down my great grandaddy's two-story house
True story, doused in flames, it ain't a news story
The neighborhood smelled like ember, all December
All because they feared the independent n
But see he's braver than most
He saved 'em, no flames no mo
(That's five kids)
Whole lotta smoke, but it ain't any gray no mo
Say no mo', escaping the fatal's no way to go
Can't ee'n be tame no mo
But see I can't ee'n explain
The fearless finesse of great grandaddy
Doctor Latimer
His medical I.Q.—high caliber
Day-to-day workload—it's piling up
Caucasian patients on his calendar
Ohh that's a no-no, I live for the no-no
It give me the mojo and some mo
I know you hear this independence, n
I'm the kind that come around one time
One-time hunt my bloodline in the broad sunshine
And what I'm really tryn to say is I've come to collect, bitch
First, we acknowledge, then we correct, bitch
(In that order, muhfucka)
Had it up to here, all the way to the neck, bitch
I'm sayin, I've come to collect, bitch
Enough so my great-grandson is set, bitch
(Set, bitch)
Fuck get rich
Enough so my great-grandson is set, bitch
(I mean they burned this black man house down like
How dare he do better than them??)
That sound like little nuts
That sound like little nuts
Either that or no balls at all, I'm all for the cause
Might ee'n put paws on ya boss, get hauled off, n
I don't mean literally man, um,
I'm just a little riled up right now that's all
That's not what I'm here for though
Really I'm here just to collect this retroactive pay
That belongs to me
We ain't gotta deal wit no paperwork
Or no fees or nothin like that
I come wit an even figure
And the way I see it, that's eight million
For the great-grandchildren
I mean that's two million for me and my woman
Two million for our kids
Two for the grandkids
Two million for the great-grand
It's the simplest math you gon do all day man I appreciate
So what do you say?
Yea? I figured you would see it my way
(I figured you would say it my way man)
(Can't get any easier than that)
Thank you very much
(Ahh-ah-ah-ah, ahh-ah)
