Reparations

I just wanna ball
Want to hit the mall
I just wanna get everything that I'm owed
I just wanna stunt
'Cause I came from not-
40 acres and a mule
We can be on

I just wanna ball
Want to hit the mall
I just wanna get everything that I'm owed
I just wanna stunt
'Cause I came from not-
40 acres and a mule
We can be on

Reparations with 40 acres
Plant seeds for food you keep the mule
Teach the youth to work day and night
Invest your time, protect your life
Hit the hood
Abandon houses
It's time to buy our own shit
Black own, black businesses
Start gentrifying our on shit
Long time they did us wrong but some of this is our fault
Tryna fix that moral compass or a racist man and we got lost
Main goal be self-sufficient so if you with it let's boss up
My bad check for owning slaves
I hate to say but it won't come

I just wanna ball
Want to hit the mall
I just wanna get everything that I'm owed
I just wanna stunt
'Cause I came from not-
40 acres and a mule
We can be on

I just wanna ball
Want to hit the mall
I just wanna get everything that I'm owed
I just wanna stunt
'Cause I came from not-
40 acres and a mule
We can be on

I saw a black man with a pair of Jordans
Tell me 'bout the lack of jobs
Had the funds to open up a shop
Spent his money on a flashy a car
He don't own not a single thing
White man this, white man that
Gucci down from head to toe
White man kicks, white man that
Must invest, start living our dreams
LLC'D what you spend on jeans
Walls of Egypt know every little thing
Then turnaround to sell pyramid schemes
System broke all this we know I'll never say that isn't fact
But every time you get a dime
You hurry up to give it back

I just wanna ball
Want to hit the mall
I just wanna get everything that I'm owed
I just wanna stunt
'Cause I came from not-
40 acres and a mule
We can be on

I just wanna ball
Want to hit the mall
I just wanna get everything that I'm owed
I just wanna stunt
'Cause I came from not-
40 acres and a mule
We can be on
