Natural selection
A species we the same
Endangered, caught us texting (caught us texting)
So now you mad at me and planning my extinction
I came from Africa, sold you my religion (okay)
We both Yoruba, credit cards and scamming victims (no way)
They traded me, Caribbean, my curse was lifted (Jah bless)
Mythology and storytellers, peace to women
Our lips are bigger, brains are wired, taught you different (whoa)
It's generational, I'll pass it to our children (yeah, yeah, okay)
They caught us kissing, Santería, voodoos missing
They brought you over, bent you over, had you picking (they bent you over)
My tribe is needy, yours is greedy, lacking interest (oh, my God)
I know we dying out
Okay
This ain't cooked in kitchens, this ain't from a plate (no way)
Okay
This ain't propagated, cultures buried deep
Up, up away
I shot me a sheriff but not deputy
Jump out the way, hate they broke the rules
Mask on, off
OK
This ain't cooked in kitchens, this ain't from a plate
OK
This ain't propagated, cultures buried deep
Up, up away
I shot me a sheriff but not deputy
Jump out the way, hate they broke the rules
Mask on, off
Abakuá, Orisha, the pantheon of voodoo
Pikachu, yellow your complexion, said you Zulu
Read the news, your agenda different, said you played it cool
Ran away, villages to cities hunted for your jewels
Passed away, R.I.P., destruction, people ruling you (okay)
Allah praised, thankful to the fruits and teachings serving you
All to say, stomach full of murder, it's the hardest truth
Hunted prey, sanctimonious, my people seek the truth
Okay
This ain't cooked in kitchens, this ain't from a plate (no way)
Okay
This ain't propagated, cultures buried deep
Up, up away
I shot me a sheriff but not deputy
Jump out the way, hate they broke the rules
Mask on, off
Okay
This ain't cooked in kitchens, this ain't from a plate
Okay
This ain't propagated, cultures buried deep

I shot me a sheriff but not deputy
