OCTAVIA 歌詞
Don't ever let a textbook scare you
You the missing piece, OG technology, they stole you
Don't ever let 'em knock the way you talk
The language you evolve your natural genius
Merch it
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm the truth, I am a fact
They lie on me, I have to laugh
I write it down, it happens next
So be it, see to it
I'm the truth, I am a fact
They lie on me, I have to laugh
I write it down, it happens next
So be it, see to it
(Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
It used to be the worst crime to write a line
Our great great greats risked their lives,
Learned letters fireside
Like a seat on a bus, like heel in a march
Like we holdin' a torch, it's our inheritance
They tease our pronunciations
Then try to mimic our greatness
We are a precious creation, our black has no imitation
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm the truth, I am a fact
They lie on me, I have to laugh
I write it down, it happens next
So be it, see to it
I'm the truth, I am a fact
They lie on me, I have to laugh
I write it down, it happens next
So be it, see to it
