Lyrics
It's up to you (It's up to you) Yeah If fairy tales are true, yeah Fairy tales are stories with lessons and allegories That tell us about the world that could be But I see no mention of bad shorties or n***as sippin' on forties No heroes inside a book look like me I don't ever mourn my childhood Know my folks is happy that they child good Imperative a narrative reflect what's up in my hood Figured that the remedy is simple Let's make a couple hits for all the kids that need a symbol Let's remind 'em that they matter, the media can chatter And peer into their lives to form statistics like we data Spin a yarn 'bout candy ladies or 'bout waking up on Saturday Mama blasting gospel, cleanin' house, gon' take 'bout half the day Afterwards, we pass a J, think of all who passed away Smoke blown out the window, that's a sin, though, know what Pastor say In services 'til late noon, wafers paired with grape juice Create a classic spittin' 'bout some sh*t we can relate to 'Cause ain't nobody talking bout a beanstalk, n***a Lemme tell you when the threes drop, n***a We get higher than the treetops, n***a Pied Piper gone to jail because the streets talk, n***a Role models only real until the beat stop, n***a Karens love the coloreds if it's Deepak, n***a But her walls so dry, call it sheetrock, n***a This is heat rock, bigger than the world that I'm livin' in If I gotta kill a beat, I'll make it deliberate Fee-fi-fo-fum, we live, go dumb Get a little streetwear, now you think you know some Show and tell, dress up, little weird after you four-some Fiendin' for oppression, I can really let you hold some Better bet they show they ass, better bet I throw some' Jumpin' through the hoop like an acrobat Then a n***a jump into the booth after passin' that My people the truth and so it's true, they be after that
