[00:00.0][Verse 1]
[00:12.62]I hit the beach

[01:22.69]In slave times
[01:26.10]A nigga got hung and then castrated, all while his kids watched
[01:29.73]White folks laughing and singing like it was KIDZ BOP
[01:32.91]They just moved to Twitter and TikTok
[01:34.97]And this one for my single dads fighting for their right to be that
[01:38.36]Through the bitterness in spite that be pushing them back
[01:41.7]For the ones who just walked away for self-preservation
[01:44.11]'Cause controlling people killing him slowly, that shit is sad
[01:47.22]It ain't always what it seem
[01:49.29]What you see is the surface, but what is underneath?
[01:52.2]I tell my homies I get it and just protect your peace
[01:55.12]And if the price is your peace, then boy, that shit is steep
[01:58.14]What a mother****ing fee
