Safe
You took me as safe
That was your first mistake
Who said I was safe?
The other night, I watched the Oscars
And the roster of the only yellow men were all statues, well, yeah
We a quarter of the population
There's a room of f-kin' one-percenters laughing at you
-ck a bamboo ceilin', guess I gotta play the villain
ODB up at the Grammys on the mic like
"Wu-Tang is for the children!"
Bruce Jenner is woman, OJ was acquitted, Kim K is a hero
The sky is the limit, any minute now
They gon' let an Asian brother get a lead role
Shots fired, I'ma reload
Never saw this side of Chino
He was always quiet, keeping to himself, never messed with anybody else
That's the Jonathan that we know
Seems so safe
'Til one day things go cray
I swear if things don't change
My actions can't be blamed (stand up!)
(And now you gotta duck!) Seems so safe
(You know you never gave a-!) 'Til one day things go cray
(I came to get my cut!) I swear if things don't change
(You know I never gave a-!) My actions can't be blamed
I ain't never heard of none of y'all fools
I can do whatever every one of y'all do
If I never get a chance, you might see the homie
Show up on the five o'clock news
You ain't never seen a yellow boy wildin'
Yellow boy shinin', sound the alarm, I got news
Go ahead and profile him, I ain't pro-violence
Shh, silence is how yellow boys move
It's been the same ol' thing, I swear the game don't change
What you talkin' 'bout there ain't no space
Guess I gotta go and make more space
You know, I'm cool as a mother-, chillin' in the cut
Hella quiet with the loud pack (loud pack)
Since I'm a cool mother-, you think everything is safe
'Til I ask you where the safe at
Seems so safe
'Til one day things go cray
I swear if things don't change
My actions can't be blamed (stand up!)
(And now you gotta duck!) Seems so safe
(You know you never gave a-!) 'Til one day things go cray
(I came to get my cut!) I swear if things don't change
(You know I never gave a-!) My actions can't be blamed
You took me as safe
That was your first mistake
Who said I was safe?
(I said no one's safe!)
That was your first mistake
Who said I was safe?
