The Mission (Apple Music Home Session)

[Verse 1]

Don C told me "Keep shinin'"

In the streets and we're still wilin'

Only peace, only violets

No violence, in the sun where I'm highest

Melanin bias, Jesus Christ, I'm iron-made

Darkest shade while she cleans my braids

Skin don't fade, and I'm still not fazed by your magazine praise

We just wanna be great in these African genes

In these African genes

[Pre-Chorus]

All I want's my kids to have some nepotism

All I want's my wealth to have some rеpetition

Call my unborn son and tell him that's the mission

Tеll him that's the vision

[Chorus]

Tell me that's the mission

Tell me that's the vision, yeah

Tell me that's the mission

Tell me that's the mission, yeah

[Verse 2]

It's 9 AM, Choice FM playing

Just a little man in your Mercedes-Benz

So amazing how you're raised this bad

Kid to a man in a whole different land

Girl, you made it

I don't wanna keep you waitin', no

I just thank you for your patience

As-salamu alaykum, we can make this go again

Again and again

We can make this go again

Again and again

We can make this go

Again and again

We can make this go

[Pre-Chorus]

All I want's my kids to have some nepotism

All I want's my wealth to have some repetition

Call my unborn son and tell him that's the mission

Tell him that's the vision, yeah

Tell him that's the mission, yeah

[Chorus]

Tell me that's the mission, yeah

Tell her that's the mission

Tell him that's the mission

Tell her that's the mission

Tell me that's the mission

Tell me that's the mission

Tell me that's the mission

Mmm, mmm

[Outro]

Stuck in a maze, I know

Stuck in a maze, I know

Stuck in a maze, I know

Livin' in a mission, stuck in a mission
