lyrics

The winner’s circle
We only recruit the greatest
Countless nights we dedicated
So its right we celebrate it
Listen
City to city
Moving faithful so we grateful
Just to share this knowledge at hand
You know we thankful
It’s a
Journey to make it
But I
Wouldn’t replace it
What’s the
Point of a dream
If you
Ain’t hear to chase it
From Oakland to Rwanda
It’s the same ill remind ya
Mix the English with Swahili
The French and the Kinyarwanda
I’m the
Son of a queen
The father of one king
vessel to my creator
A sum of all things
The perfection imperfection
When losses turn into lessons
Realized my gifts to share it
So here with you I express it

HOOK

It’s
A celebration throw yo hands in the air
Wave em round like you just don’t care
Lets to the ceiling cause all year long we gon be winning
Never fleeting we gon replicate this feeling
Verse 2

Now look at us
The plan been lucrative
Flight over seas
Leave the country like a fugitive
Some of yall didn’t see it
But the units did
For us by us
This is how we choose to live
They wanna keep us in a box like a lunatic
This is just the beginning
You should get use to it
Seeing triple the amounts that we use to get
Taking calculated shots
I refuse to miss
Fresh tribe is in motion
Im moving like the white folks
Moved into Oakland
Warrior
Raised in the land of the hoyas
How we came to build in the land of destroyers?
My trademark passed without a lawyer
No matter how hard you try
You cant avoid us
We got hired
Admired for performance
We got tired
Fired the employers
Slave living wasn’t for us
That boom bap
Hear the liberation in the chorus
Dr. Cress said it was less them, more us
A crowd full of black families
This is gorgeous


HOOK

It’s
A celebration throw yo hands in the air
Wave em round like you just don’t care
Lets to the ceiling cause all year long we gon be winning
Never fleeting we gon replicate this feeling
(X2)





Verse 3


Oh what a beautiful feeling when you got yo spirit right
and you moving in purpose not focused on the hype
Commemorate the small wins painting bigger pictures
Invest in family and friends in hopes the coming with ya
Sacred energy, positive vibes only
Veneration for my people
If not, the leave me lonely
The highest expectations surrounding this new nation
Oakland renaissance, history check
We produce greatness
Hammer to huey
The panther movie
Them town warriors
And yours truly
Legacy building
So prolific with the scribble
No passion behind the dribble
But needed a way to nibble
So I
Became a novelist
A pro with these prose
Writing to see emancipation
Got the loftiest goals
This is
A dedication to this new black nation
Cutting the middle man
We focused on vertical integration
That’s freedom
