The Fool, Pt 1 (Get It Got It Good) Songtext

Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!
They can't kill us, 'cause they can't see us, 'cause they only see fear
Get it, got it, good!
They can't kill us, 'cause they can't see us, 'cause they only see fear
Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!

Damn it feels good to be back
Damn it feels good to be black
They keep on killing us
We just keep killing it
Mama said killing is not where the healin' is
Cutters be bad
Lord know she been through it
She said a human is not who the villain is
She said it's fear, it's greed and it's pride
You see it inside
That's what the system is built on
And what it instills in us
Know I've been feeling this vibe
Honestly the haters can hate
Just let the creators create
And let the creator be judge
I mean too many mistakes to be grudging
Beside, all of us lost without love
'Cause maybe some never get woke
Or tire of staying awake
Or party all night and distraught at the state of the day
Lord what do you make of this way that I'm walking
This path that I'm on, you made a way for me
Hope that my map isn't wrong, nowadays my legs is weak
What if my staff isn't strong, what if it breaks
Uh, who got me? uh, you got me! uh!
I know that you got me good

Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!
Get it!

Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!

I'm talking 'bout wavy
I'm talking 'bout ways we can elevate
Stepping up stair and we escalate
Don't try to separate, we'll get together and celebrate
I can do everything, I just don't hesitate
I can do anything, allow me to demonstrate
I just can't wait, I just can't not be me
I just can't go back and copy me
I just can't not be free
I just can't possibly
Lesson on lessons
Legends on legends on legends
Little black boy with a poem that he showed to the reverend
Jesus saw Judas and ran up to hug the young brother
And dug at the other eleven
Like why is this traitor in heaven
He said it's hell on earth anywhere love isn't present
Wherever he goes, we go together my brethren
Get it?

Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!

Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!
Get it, got it, good!

They can't kill us, 'cause they can't see us, 'cause they only see fear
They can't kill us, 'cause they can't see us, 'cause they only see fear

Wanna be free? just answer one question, but answer honestly..
What are you afraid of?
