Slave Son Lyrics by Young Zee

Scumbag

2022

[Verse 1]
My grandpops was a slave
And workin' with the sheeps
He took no crap
He went to bat for his peeps
Like, "Massa, I know
You don't cares what we think
But it's hot as hell
And all the slaves need a drink"
Sometime they gave him props
They know pops
Don't play none
Plus his whole family was a slave
From day one
Moms was sick
They made her still pick cotton
Comin' home crying
'Cause her fingertips rotten
Papa went wack
So they whipped his back
Beat him ninety times
And left him tied to the tracks
Now they sit around
And watch 'em drink
And crack jokes
Ready to kill 'em all
Thе way they laugh
At black folks
Girls is like twelvе
And the masters still rape 'em
Now they can't figure
Why the niggas still hate 'em
But slaves overcame
Them two the brave ones
All we needed was the freedom
Of a slave son

[Chorus]
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God said He's gonna trouble the water

[Verse 2]
It's not different
In this world I was brung in
We still got slaves
Like when my gramps was a youngin
Just now we carjack
Sellin' keys of crack
When you pull up at a light
You gotta watch your back
But if I see one
I'm puttin' 'em to rest
'Cause he dumb
Wanna snatch chains
We was tryna break free from
Picture me a slave
"Hey, massa they's trippin'
Give us some pig guts
So they can make chitlins"
He don't give a fuck
Tonight he eatin' baked chicken
Then come and take the kids
'cause master rape children
I can't let him do that to her
I will straight kill him
Sometime peace and death
Is better than pain livin'
Now skip to 2023
I might get shot joggin'
So I still don't feel free
I ain't scared of nothing
I ain't never gon' run
And my blood pump the blood
Of a Slave Son

[Chorus]
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God said He's gonna trouble the water
