Testify (Edited))
I want to dedicate this song right here (hey, baby)
To Jonathan Jackson and George Jackson (would you testify, for me?)
Peace to those brothers (would you call me now?)
I want to shout out my man Sherm the Worm (would you be proud?)
80 years (would you testify for me?)
Come home, n-
Come home, - (have your peace) (oh, no)
Uh
I just burnt my American flag
And sent three cracker Nazis to hell, and I'm sad
Uh, I'm loading tips in my mag
To send these redneck bigots to some death in a bag
Choke him out with his confederate flag
I know these devils are mad
Little rap fans who live way out in safe suburbia
Would you stand with me, a United States murderer?
Huh? Would you testify? (Would you testify?) (Testify for me)
You buy my songs (would you call me now?)
You buy my songs
But will you ride with me? (Will you ride with me?) (Would you testify for me)
You understand my struggle (mm)
That's what you claim, right? (Testify for me) (ooh)
Then get your aim right (ooh)
And get your game tight
Don't buy my songs, y'all don't roll with it
Coming to concerts singing, hoeing shit
Y'all lil', lil' hoe b-
I don't need y'all, I'll go gold with it (ooh)
I heard y'all was downloading it (hey)
Like I'm y'all man who be exposing - (hey)
Like uh, William Cooper
Who told you the Pale Horse is the future?
Would you testify on some realness like that? (Testify for me)
I think you scared (hey) (ooh)
I don't think you prepared (ooh)
Yeah
Would you testify? (Testify for me)
You know what I'm asking you?
Do you know what I'm asking you? (Testify for me) (ooh)
Wow
Would you testify? (Testify for me) wow
Well, uh
I don't know, Mr. Jones, I, I-
You can't just go around acting, uh, irrationally, uh
Or irresponsibly
Personally, I, I think you're a bigger person than that
The things you say and do, you love your country, don't you?
You, you admire your country
