Mic check here I go, OH! Thought that I would sing on it, Better yet, you thought I’d drop a bomb on it Oh no! female emcee, coherent flow oh this can’t be You get dismissed when I get this pissed At the swagger no substance, reiterate this, Believe what you hear about what you see, Holding down respect for female emcees… This is the message Keeping in time, so I do the beat justice, Ride it when I rhyme, catch it when I drop this, Cookin word recipes, yes its costless, Food for the mind, coz the belly kinda restless, Brain wheels spin, out through the fingertips, Write while I speak, voice out through the thick lips, Understand the meaning behind means, Hope you the get stitching behind the seams, Who is the “I”, this is me I'm presenting, Straight from the rubble ain't no struggle representing, Hold me down, but the steam is steady venting, Future will be past so I'm present documenting, [Hook] Never thought you'd see me rise up, Coming up from the underground, Never thought you'd hear me rise up, I'm clear and coming in loud, Never thought you'd see me rise up, But here I stand, Yes I am, Everything you never thought you'd see up on a mic stand [Verse 2] Keepin mind that you blame it on the status, Spoken word art is a hip-hop apparatus, Woven so beautifully, never been callous, Mind full of words is a poetry palace, Bet you've never been to a hip-hop jam, Turn your nose up at poetry slams, Weighed by hate coz got it by the gram, Can I educate, coz your truth is kinda bland Side line sittin, observe and listen, Hip-hop ain’t dead, mainstream just wishin, Elitist in the way you describe this art flow, Call it ghetto rap, coz you never want the world to know, [Hook] Never thought us see me rise up, Coming up from the underground, Never thought you'd hear me rise up, I'm clear and coming in loud, Never thought you'd see me rise up, But here I stand, Yes I am, Everything you never thought you'd see up on a mic stand [Verse 3] What you see, on B.E.T, Ain't but the glorified, life of a G, Before the rims and Tims, There was truth up the booth, Flow it don't show it, Coz the people need truth, It ain't about swagger, it's about pride It ain't about swagger, it's about pride Forget about swagger, it's about pride It's about PRIDE The Message, Sent, Received. ©written and performed by MC Jazz

See they ask but they don’t listen What you wanna know Racially ambiguous but ethnically defined, By the curls in my hair and the jiggle in my thighs, Baby where you from coz you lookin exotic, Mixed I would say, way you puffin on that chronic, Juicy in the lips and eyes that can burn, Mama taught it right coz your smile I gotta earn, Habla espagnol? Coz I’m thinking Hispanic, Did I get it right damn I’ma start to panic, So I tell them no, they tell me don’t lie, I tell them North Africans have beautiful behinds, So they look up wheels turning in they minds, Wanna know where I’m from the Mother of the Nile. [Chorus ] Engraved in my heart is my history, I carry on my ancestry, They don’t understand why we proud to be, Pride brings love to unity. Engraved in my heart is my history, I can’t be your mystery, If you don’t understand why we proud to be, Pride bring love to unity Said I’m proud I’m in the T.O, But I rep my people, African Queens classic beauty so regal, No my daddy ain’t a Pharaoh and my name ain’t Cleopatra, That was 30 B.C. I came two thousands years after, But, thanks for the recognition look it up on a map, E-G-Y-P-T spelled like that, No I didn’t ride a camel in, yes I seen the Pyramids, Three languages come out my mouth and you only speak English, Then you call me immigrant here we go with this again, City of diversity but still so many ignorant, So why should I try to emphasize my R’s, Case you spot an accent that’s not up to par, If you don’t get it yet, yes I called you racist, Illusion of equality, so let us turn the pages. All they wanna know is where you from Not what your from [Chorus] Engraved in my heart is my history, I carry on my ancestry, They don’t understand why we proud to be, Pride brings love to unity.

If I took you home, nobody would guess, But if we hold hands, nerves got me restless. Though the love in your eyes, tells me no lies, Why would it matter if we wear dresses or ties? But, here it comes, what a scandal they would say, Trauma from a man that made her this way, Now I’m a sinner coz I love you the way I do, Not noble for the many ways I cherish you. Assimilate to segregate, raise debate to launch hate, A conventional rite to validate my soul mate. Paperwork for the right to pull the plug, Arm’s length from you, can’t touch or hug. They say ignorance is bliss, But ignorance like this, Got me switching pronouns not her but his. Will your god hate me for loving? Or judge you for judging. We’re all human or am I missing something? Listen, I’m outta stories, no more wearing more than one face, It’s time to breathe outside coz I’m out of damn closet space. Chorus Open your heart before you close your mind, Take a look around, we’re all the same inside. Speak out against this hate, use love to reunite What happened to our faith in that freedom is a right. Freedom is a right(x3) Verse 2 A closet’s for clothes, do we look like shirts? Righteous right wings calling us perverts. Saying it’s influence; they control your mind, It’s not okay to be gay, you’re not normal inside. On the way to therapy, analyzed for three months, Pray for my lost soul, and still no results. They got gay A.A. for people grieving for us, Coz we love differently now we lost their trust. Got most queer kids in a box so small, Abusing drugs to escape don’t wanna live at all. Media buffin up the boys, dumbin up the girls, Put em both together, definition of the world. Lumberjack dyke, ballerina fag, For the rest of our lives gotta wear this tag. Binary is the only way to be, Society says choose now, can’t be in between. At fifteen got most of us contemplating life, Self worth, lower than dirt while we ran the knife. Can’t be proud out loud till the next parade, Till June comes around, wear a mask, degrade. See, my kind of right is your kind of wrong, Why does opening your mind need to take so long. Ignorance got em thinking that this is a choice, Dictating which majority gets to have a voice. Gay, straight, bi, polyamorous, trans, Intersex, two spirited, omnisexual and Everything in between a million ways to be, Not a deviant, or perv, fuck listen I’m just gay. Chorus Open your heart before you close your mind, Take a look around, we’re all the same inside. Speak out against this hate, use love to reunite What happened to our faith in that freedom is a right. Freedom is a right(x4) Ignorance breeds ignorance so please don’t diss, My freedom to love, and fuck who I wish, You set back the movement, saying I ain’t right, Don’t forget Stonewall, don’t forget the fight, Life never rewinds so why should I pause it, The kinda dreams I got, are too big for a closet.

The put me in a box mama please don’t do the same, Coz this tension between us has been driving me insane, All I wish to hear is you proud saying my name, Not a forced smile suppressing, masking all your pain, You say that I brought all this suffering to you, But mama understand what I’ve been going through, You say I’m your baby well your baby’s been broken Beat on hated on and her dignity stolen, Repeatedly violated, and every time I tried, To shed some light, my claims were denied, Grew up thinking my fault, like yeah I let this happen, Feeling cheaper everyday, and so damn close to snappin, I’m classified as different just coz the rest are ignorant, I didn’t ask for prejudice, I didn’t ask for insolence. I’m still the same the girl you knew before you found out, So why you crying on your knees, with my baby pictures all out, Laid out like I died and you can’t even see me, I want my baby back how could you lie and deceive me, Don’t understand why, this counts as a lie, I’m being the truest to myself this time, It ain’t a white folk disease; I wasn’t influenced by the ways, I wasn’t tempted into deviance, but free to do any say, That I am who I am, instead of scream for help, Fearing the worst, just coz I wanna be myself, Now daddy’s little girl, is now daddy’s nightmare, Daddy’s pride and joy is now daddy’s blank stare, Nobody could’ve guessed it could get this far, Pops used to hug but now he’s leaving scars, Used to wonder why moms was so sad, She kept it all in afraid to make him mad, See the reason that he hits, coz you made him like this, You defy and disobey and wonder why he’s getting pissed, Pops didn’t have a clue about all the shit I went through, Trying to make it through the day and the heavens only knew, Injustice all the around coz I got robbed blind, Of dignity and worth wool over my eyes, I used to be his world, but now I’m just the reason, His head held low, the cold breeze up in his season, I used to be his world, but now I’m just the reason, His head held low, the cold breeze up in his season, I know I used to be his precious baby girl, Now I’m between my life in they world, Now I’m forced to choose, Either way I lose, I’m still that baby girl, Just filling bigger shoes, Pops is made of stone, Coz baby girl is grown, Disobedient, deviant, he looks with disgust, At the life he birthed, but now can never trust, He said freedom fightin ain’t a worthy cause, To lose all you know for some praise and applause, You used to be my world, but now you just a shame, If I’d known this before, you wouldn’t have had my last name, No matter how I tried, To them my virtues died, The day I chose to live a free life without disguise, The voice of Allah is what you want me to fear, But it’s the sound of your reason that I struggle to hear, So ma and pa I now pray, our paths again cross, But on better terms coz this shame is your loss

I’m payin 10 times his manufacturing cost, Coco Chanel must be laughin in her grave, Look how they line up, those fall collection slaves, Multi million dynasty, from every cent you gave, They started a ripple, you perpetuate the wave Addicted to the trends, you religiously depend, On the name on your shirt, to make you high class friends, [Chorus] Tired of working for the rich folk, Coz I think that's how they keep us broke...

Dolce and Gabbana, I don't really wanna, Be a walking sign coz realness is your karma, No its not attractive if the dude on your bag, Is wearing less clothes than you got in the bag, Swag, explain coz I’m confused, Inflated sense of self worth by wearing new shoes? Want a French Connection, may be learn to speak it, Wisdom is abundant maybe learn to seek it, Versace got you blinded, with the fly ass shades, The path of least resistance, is where you graze, Haze, smoke, mirrors and jokes, We donate to Africa, everybody chokes, Production value, mark-up, Credit get you card-up, Feelin so fresh, you fools, got the shark up. Please wake up, get your head out the basement, Coz even when you talk all I hear is fashion statements... [Chorus] Tired of working for the rich folk, Coz I think that's how they keep us broke... (Said I'm) Tired of working for the rich folk, Coz I think that's how they keep us broke...

Baby lay down and relax yourself, Do it in a way to make you touch yourself, Eyes on my thighs, hypnotized, Five feet away but I feel like you inside, Moving real slow, focus on my hips, Snake it, dip it low, lickin on your lips, Waves of the ocean is how my body go, Dancing like the motion is the only thing I know, I’ma turn around hands up when I move, Grinding to the sound, body motion so smooth, If I bend it over, hit it like a soldier, Wet, from behind, watch over my shoulder, Pullin on my hair, love it when you beat it up, Work me all night, moaning till the sun come up, Grinding on top, watch you baby eat it up, And if you slip inside, squirt it when you heat it up Uh, so baby come inside, Screaming your name, show you how I ride, Dancing on you baby this my invitation, Unfold me like the sheets, blow my imagination..

Boys like this What makes a man “real man”, can you answer this? The image you provide ain’t applicable to shit, I see em dressed in muscles; I see em dressed in norms, Ignoring all the other types, that don’t wanna conform, So he’s a little femmi, don’t mean his hand ain’t steady, Anxiety takes over, hate speech ready, You say he needs a dad, must be why he’s a fag, Scared of the unknown, but of your manhood you brag, Living in your box, and kept the lid closed, Brought up in ignorance, values imposed, Who are you to judge the definition of a man? Media made you carbon copies, thinking that you can, Hate on the rest, coz the dress not similar, Everybody knows, when they see it in the middla, Street, yelling freak, saying faggot I’m a kill ‘em huh, Boys like this are the illest lemme tell you ha, (Chorus) Da da da da da, Da da da da da da da Boys get your hands up, Da da da da da, Da da da da da da da It’s time that we stand up, I see you talk shit, Please don’t diss Do you have a problem with boys like this? Boys like boys, Leave em in bliss, Why you got a problem with boys like this? [Verse 2] You need to understand, not bully and dismiss Why you got a problem with boys like this? Everybody knows it, everybody sees it, Nobody defends it, all concede, If he dress nice, you pick em in a crowd, If he moves light, you try to put him down, Tell me why they all gotta look like you, Inflated in the neck and tatted up too? Trophy on the arm, saying what’s the harm? In callin him a sissy girl, phobia alarm, “You said faggot right” vocally project, Unless you’re in a mob, so nobody interjects, Calling out he-she, come and suck my dick, Try and fight him too, saying I can take a chic, Listen up dummy, this shit ain’t funny Mad coz you say “bro” and he says “hunny” (Chorus) Da da da da da, Da da da da da da da Boys get your hands up, Da da da da da, Da da da da da da da It’s time that we stand up, I see you talk shit, Please don’t diss Do you have a problem with boys like this? Boys like boys, Leave em in bliss, Why you got a problem with boys like this? [Breakdown] fucking with him means you fuck with me, And fucking with us is basically, Fucking with the whole queer community, So do you really wanna come fuck with a Queen? Fuck with him, Fuck with me, Fuck with us, basically, Fucking with the whole queer community, So do you really wanna come fuck with a Queen?
