Modern Boi

Now this time we have is all ours
Tired of waiting, make a move
You live inside your modern math
I'll be on the moon, the moon

(What did you think?)
I betcha feel good now
Yeah, yeah (Feel good now)
I betcha feel good now (What did you think?)
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, betcha you feel good
Betcha you feel
Betcha you feel good now (Oh, oh)

Uh, yeah
Remember when I used to take a rickshaw to the school, shit (Shit)
Way back 'fore the service had my daddy pack and move it (Move it)
I didn't speak a lick, train my tongue wit' the cartoon shit (Yeah)
'Til a youngin fire breathin' back when he was toothless
They would body shame my pigment (Yo)
Like I had a choice to choose it (What?)
Too foreign for the white kids,
too vanilla for the desis (You know it)
Not included, like double A's for Casios I grooved with as a baby
Last year I toured the nation off of a music
Shit is crazy

I've traveled far and wide
To find my place and lay my head
They say we're all confused
I guess I am, I must confess
And if the world will end
Why not go and take my chance? (Take it)
Modern man (Okay)
Do your dance
Yo

Mama came across the water
Like fuck a border (Fuck)
Like fuck the future Donald wanted (Fuck)
You can't deport the culture (Nah)
My grandma voted and got shot at by soldiers (Shit)
To me, she the Haitian Rosa
So in part I owe her
Wish I was older so I could've met her (Yeah)
But instead I write this letter like it's not a record (Nah)
But it is and it's prolly a hit
Shit, Abhi goin' to call me like, "[?
] Sol, they gon' party to this shit"
Just some brown kids, down since 'round 2006 (Yeah)
When Luda had us eatin' that Chicken-n-Beer
Ain't shit different, they switching no gears (Uh-uh)
The ignorant still questioning which pigment he in
I'm a modern boy, more than you'll ever know (Know)
23andMe couldn't crack the code (Code)
Yeah my DNA came from all across the globe
In more ways than one, but there's only one Sol

I've traveled far and wide
To find my place and lay my head
They say we're all confused
I guess I am, I must confess
And if the world will end
Why not go and take my chance?
Modern man
Yeah
Now do your dance

Yeah yeah
Yeah! (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah
