One.Be.Lo - RootS lyrics

VERSE 1 A long time ago they used to calle'm Clans or Tribes And Politics, played a part in how you planned your Bride Gave a man his Pride A name wasn't just a name And don't be gettin' blamed Puttin “Us” to shame... Now a days, kids running away Like water run in a drain Then a prodigal son he Be-came At the Family Reunion A couple of names... I forget- ‘But I remember that summer was Great Some of us “late” I remember the ones in the Grave... Uncle Johnny with his fishing pole, Bucket and Bait Uncle George at the Holidays, Stuffin' his face... Young Oggie brushing his fade... Nothing but waves... Some of my friends and family One, and the same And we ain't even gotta have the same blood in our veins I got brothers from different mothers We call friends cousins... I give'm my all I know they like that I love it VERSE 2 Sometime's it's hard walking a narrow... Path straight, like an Archer with Arrow These last days, Dark as my shadow... Target practice on you tall-tale, Towers of Babel... One Be Lo to wack rappers like, Water to Pharoah... Hard to the marrow, or bone X-Rays often examine Our D-N-A strands say our father was Adam Til every brother, Every sister, play they part in the family I'm the voice, that you listen on a mission with Cap D Social commentary yo that's me... See a problem Bring solution person Rap version of Black seed Serious as cancer, whats the answer, you ask me? Five Pillar dimension, pay attention it's tax free... Seeking pardon, this road could lead to gardens My jargon Original They say it sound “like” a bargain... A message to whoever wanna spark it... Remember yo You battle One Man alone... That's known as an Army
