Question: do you know your roots?

Lyrics

Hook.

Brotha man/
Running back, running back, running back/
Come back home, your mother land
Ain't love where your soul stand/

Brotha man /
Running back, running back, running back/
Don't know yourself in a bad land /
Come back, come back, come back

My home land /
Calling my name, its potent /
Most of my heritage broken /
Most of my identity stolen/ woo/

By the badland /
big city that's where snakes at/
The place where the hate, and fake at/
Running back, running back, running back, woo/

Verse (praise)

Where the roots at /
Young niggas really don't know that/
Most niggas don't know they homeland /
The cape in the north where my home at/

 gotta go back/
This shit ain't right, and I know that/
Gentrified my kind, it's so sad /
Uncultured tribe, where I'm based at/

I tend to go to panic 
And become too frantic 
When I realize I don't know my language /

The city has killed me and damaged 
My soul and I know i ain't got no advantage/

I'm just an Uncultured bastard /
Sometimes I just wonder if this really matter/

Is it too late for me 
If it isn't tell my people to wait for me/


But it isn't /
Time is shifting/
I've been living /
Inside a different /
Way of thinking /
Whatever I'm doin got grand daddy spirit/
Shout out to the ancestors know that they with us/
Pissin' on pissin' off all these niggas /
Cause Growing up ain't have pot to go piss in /
Thru all the endeavors I'll only get bigger/

Take it easy /
But fuck it this place do not please me/
Wanna go back home I need it /

Trust me my nigga I'm outchea  and fienin'/
Need me my freedom like I'm sarafina/
The fye in my soul got hit paraffin a /
My soul very sore 
As I'm constantly hearing my ancestors calling my name....... Like
