Twinkle - Erykah Badu

They don’t know their language

They don’t know their God

They take what their given

Even whan it feels Odd

They say their grandfathers and grandmothers work hard for nothing

And we still in this ghetto

So they end up in prisons

They end up in blood

They keep us uneducated,

Sick and depressed

(they end up in blood)

Doctor I’m addicted now

I’m under arrest

(they end up in blood)

We makin’mo’money than a muthaf**ka

(they end up in blood)

With no choices there’s no hope for us

(they end up in blood)

Started with a rhyme from old ancent times

Decedents of warlocks,

Witches with ill glitches

Children of the matrix be hittin’them car switches

Seen some Virgin Virgos hanging out with Venus Bitches

Cause

They don’t know their language

They don’t know their God

They take what their given

Even whan it feels Odd

They say their grandfathers and grandmothers work hard for nothing

And we still in this ghetto

So they end up in prisons

They end up in blood

They keep us uneducated,

Sick and depressed

(they end up in blood)

Doctor I’m addicted now I’m under arrest

(they end up in blood)

We makin’mo’money than a muthaf**ka

(they end up in blood)

With no choices there’s no hope for us

(they end up in blood)
