Jonah Melvon - What's Good for You (feat. Adesha)

What's good for You
May Not be so good for me
What's good for me
May not be so good for you
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no no
I'm a shine like my Golden State
Keep it hundred til my soul to take
Truth spitters gravediggers
On the same corner
Where I lay my pillow Oakland California
Broke folk well-fed pushin out the middle class
Tryina stack chips while others lay I'm chippin pass
Currency of every kind
Put my ducks in order fill em like quarters
Take em down one at a time something like borders
Books I'm writing camouflaged as verses
Give you that feel good like psalms for churches
Exercise ya mind cause this game been lazy
Same tired old songs like drivin Ms. Daisy
When there's so much more to life
My home needs improvement
So I'm starting with myself on this Left U movement
Circling back, balancin' act, was never an act, truth of the fact
Skin tone dipped in the Nile
So Defiled they say
when I'm just being me
But on trial we stay
All please rise, as I rise above the current
From these laws that see us, a 16th, a subservient
From yo white house, see this black house, suffers from yo dialect
But at least it's comin to light, instead of hidden in the silent
Corners of the heart, bring the light to the dark, Mel
What's good for You
May Not be so good for me
What's good for me
May not be so good for you
See rap was like supper time in my basement
My food from a culture that was born in the pavement
Couldn't play it loud cause the neighbors be complainin
Unfamiliar ground before the crown got famous
Listening to NWA but on the low low
Cause we was church kids and that was a no no
So it was church lingo father son holy ghost
But u know them church kids probably doing the most
So what happened in the basement stayed in the basement
Even on some foul bad family relations
Elephants in the room camels and giraffes
But the blood of Jesus gone wash away that
So it was sunshine in my big cuz hoopty
Snuggled in the back like my blacks with the kufi's
Rockin Eric B and Rakim scrappin from the V
Feelin like we paid in full driving on E, push
What's good for You
May Not be so good for me
What's good for me
May not be so good for you
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no no
