Motherland

[Chorus]
Takin' it back to the motherland
The talkin' drums make you understand
The struggle of these young Africans
My people feel it when they clap they hands
Takin' it back to the motherland
The talkin' drums make you understand
The struggle of these young Africans
My people feel it when they doin' that dance

[Verse 1: M.anifest]
When they hear the drum beat
The freedom and concrete
The pitter-patter [?] that's runnin' like athletes
Yes, it's a track meet
No diggity, Blackstreet
[?]
When I'm alone
Pen in my bones
Reminiscin' of home
My thoughts roam like cell phones
Got a jones
Deep in my bones
To be by the ocean
My skin [?] for some of that cocoa by the lotion
[?]
Summer all year round
Winter time never [?] up
My brother Kofi told me I was next up
He said "go to America, build your rep up."
So I went to the embassy
Got me a visa
Ready to be Caesa'
[?]
Now I'm grippin' mics
Gettin' stripes
Like a Zebra
See I'm...

[Chorus]
Takin' it back to the motherland
The talkin' drums make you understand
The struggle of these young Africans
My people feel it when they clap they hands
Takin' it back to the motherland
The talkin' drums make you understand
The struggle of these young Africans
My people feel it when they doin' that dance

[Verse 2: M.anifest]
[?]

[Chorus]
Takin' it back to the motherland
The talkin' drums make you understand
The struggle of these young Africans
My people feel it when they clap they hands
Takin' it back to the motherland
The talkin' drums make you understand
The struggle of these young Africans
My people feel it when they doin' that dance

[Interlude: M.anifest]
[?]

[Verse 3: M.anifest]
[?]

[Chorus]
Takin' it back to the motherland
The talkin' drums make you understand
The struggle of these young Africans
My people feel it when they clap they hands
Takin' it back to the motherland
The talkin' drums make you understand
The struggle of these young Africans
My people feel it when they doin' that dance
