NYX - Melanin lyrics

{Verse} We got it popping We pop up, they profit The door, we not locking Give others an option Hate, we blocking We ain't come up to conflict Knowledge dropping Got the leaders with optics Join the rocket Going up, ain't no dropship Control the pocket Put the trend to the topic We create the culture The land getting owners Take back from the vultures A beautiful ocean Malcolm my opus Delivery potent Don't go through the motions You read up and focus Get Hughes like a poet My hue feeling golden Adding to the story Feel like Royce Give it through the allegory Its been gory, going for it Check the glory The record's poorly in they hands The system never understands On our backs, how it stands Property, we demand Grands Build within, how it's ran Brands Black-owned with the fam Lambs Sacrificed for the lands Don't act with no spite Or forget all the plight Or freeze up from the ice Hampton fell for our flight Saw the light for the fight Got the mission in my sights I saw Luther King, couldn't fold Fit the vision, gotta skip the mold React with actions, I can't even hold Product packing, it ain't even sold Goals African gold
