I’m tryna be just like Rosa
Ain’t movin back to the back or more over
How else the kiddos gone know they can sit
Right in the midst Of the hate and the diss
That’s just the pressure you need for the switch
From coal to a diamond, the carbon legit
Her story, history
Masters of the masterpiece
It’s the overcome for me
There’s still more to come we need
Assists and passes on the bills for the masses
Not more bills for the masters
Till no one can pass us

Papa broke the bread, mama got it too yeah
