New Slaves - Kanye West
[Verse 1:]
My momma was raised in an era when,
Clean water was only served to the fairer skin
Doing clothes you would have thought I had help
But they wasn't satisfied unless I picked the cotton myself.
You see it's broke n_gga racism
That's that "Don't touch anything in the store"
And there's rich n_gga racism
That's that "Come here, please buy more"
What you want a Bentley, fur coat and diamond chain?
All you blacks want all the same things
Used to only be n_ggas now everybody play me
Spending everything on Alexander Wang
New Slaves
[Hook:]
You see it's leaders and there's followers
But I'd rather be a d_ck than a swallower
You see it's leaders and there's followers
But I'd rather be a d_ck than a swallower
[Verse 2:]
I throw these Maybach keys
I wear my heart on the sleeve
I know that we the new slaves
I see the blood on the leaves
I see the blood on the leaves
I see the blood on the leaves
I know that we the new slaves
I see the blood on the leaves
They throwing hate at me
Want me to stay at ease
F_ck you and your corporation
Y'all n_ggas can't control me
I know that we the new slaves
I know that we the new slaves
I'm about to wild the f_ck out
I'm going Bobby Boucher
I know that p_ssy ain't free
You n_ggas p_ssy, ain't me
Y'all throwing contracts at me
You know that n_ggas can't read
Throw on some Maybach keys
F_ck it, c'est la vie
I know that we the new slaves
Y'all n_ggas can't f_ck with me
Y'all n_ggas can't f_ck with Ye
Y'all n_ggas can't f_ck with Ye
I'll move my family out the country
So you can't see where I stay
So go and grab the reporters
So I can smash their recorders
See they'll confuse us with some bullsh_t like the New World Order
Meanwhile the DEA
Teamed up with the CCA
They tryna lock n_ggas up
They tryna make new slaves
See that's that private owned prison
Get your piece today
They Probably all in the Hamptons
Braggin' 'bout their maid
F_ck you and your Hampton house
I'll f_ck your Hampton spouse
Came on her Hampton blouse
And in her Hampton mouth
Y'all 'bout to turn sh_t up
I'm 'bout to tear sh_t down
I'm 'bout to air sh_t out
Now what the f_ck they gon' say now?
