Bloodline

(álbum: The Gold Album: 18th Dynasty - 2015)

Have not betrayed your ideals
Your ideals betrayed you
Your eyes will not close
What are you gonna do?

Why blood wanna take mine?
Tell cuz won't take mine
I'm just tryna make way for my bloodline
Gotta make a way for my bloodline
So make way, nigga, in due time
Paid dues and I'm due mine
Tryna make way for my bloodline
Stained blood through my bloodline
So why cuz wanna take mine?
Why blood wanna take mine?
Tryna make way for my bloodline
Gotta make a way for my bloodline
So make way, nigga, in due time
Paid dues and I'm due mine
Tryna make way for my bloodline
Stained blood through my bloodline

They said it's racist, black on black faces
Can't portray a nigga when you're called it daily
Days I've dreamt, defeated diplomatic immunity
Ain't shit safe, living in a gated community
I put miles on this hooptie, my heroine's tookie
Never seen real life like a gangster movie
Though we kept that Uzi, black gators, we're moving
Like pharaohs in tombs, bitch, I'm back in tune, bitch
Black out the room, we birthed into this
Who is this new nigga? Who is the proven?
Hundred percent real, no silicone music
I don't do it for you niggas, I just do it to do it
Years ago I swear I was Prince Zamunda
Now I'm King T Ruler
Never know when you're winning 'til you start losing
Can't lose it

Have not betrayed your ideals
Your ideals betrayed you
Your eyes will not close
What are you gonna do?

Why cuz wanna take mine?
Why blood wanna take mine?
I'm just tryna make way for my bloodline
Gotta make a way for my bloodline
So make way, nigga, in due time
Paid dues and I'm due mine
Tryna make way for my bloodline
Stained blood through my bloodline
Why blood wanna take mine?
Tell cuz won't take mine
Tryna make way for my bloodline
Gotta make a way for my bloodline
So make way, nigga, in due time
Paid dues and I'm due mine
Tryna make way for my bloodline
Stained blood through my bloodline
(What are you gonna do?)

I'm King Ramses of my era
Pacing everlasting love, couldn't take me this far
But still my heart racing to new life and past relations
I'm on deck, Last King, standing formation
Take a look at your life 'fore you judge mine
Middle finger high, fuck a peace sign
Please give me something to write about, it's been too long
23 years behind bars, no father, shoulder to lean on
No love lost, just cold found
I just... wanna see wealth and my family smile
Wanna pass a better generation down
Cosigned since a child, let him make his way down
A man who they praise now, gon' kneel down, say a prayer loud
I'm here, niggas acting like I had invitations
Like a nigga just slept, woke up in a mansion and shit
Like a nigga in the club all night dancing and shit
Like the Jamie Foxx Show, bitches acting fancy and shit
Shit... if I could I would, my nigga
Right now I'm just focused, living good, my nigga
All that shit on TV looking good, my nigga
Shit, you doing your thing, as you should, my nigga
As you should, my nigga

Keep doing your thing
I see you
Just take it day by day
Can't take this shit when you leave
Only thing you leave behind is your bloodline
Keep doing your thing, my nigga
As you should, my nigga
As you should, my nigga
