Rankofa X – Enough Research? Lyrics

Rankofa X

Whatchu mean enough research
I am the living proof
My ancestors' wildest dreams coming true
If history is the best teacher, I'm at least a tutor
Enough Research? I am the living proof
Now hear you are saying I've made claims I've yet to prove
The irony is that I'm only a few generations removed
So who is you
Whatchu mean enough research
I am the living proof
My ancestors wildest dreams coming true
If history is the best teacher, I'm at least tutor
Whatchu mean enough research
I am the living proof
My ancestors' wildest dreams coming true
On my momma side
My granny granny was a slave
I'm trying to figure out if that affects the way that I behave
Is there some correlation between that
And my half-baked assertion that I'm stuck in my ways
On my daddy side
My granny momma picked cotton
Because sharecropping was the best option to unlock forgotten
Wait, hold up
I almost forgot them disasters on my college transcript
I got my worst marks in sociology classes
Where lessons were predicated on outdated research
Conducted mainly by caucasians
Regarding inner city subjects subjected to subjugation
And the ills of poverty
As a result of being descendants of enslavement
As I typed my paper
All I could see was Granny Edna face
Rocking chair memories my only citation
Y'all ain't settled reparations
Now hear you are saying I've made claims I've yet to prove
The irony is that I'm only a few generations removed
So who is you
Whatchu mean enough research
I am the living proof
My ancestors wildest dreams coming true
If history is the best teacher, I'm at least tutor
Whatchu mean enough research
I am the living proof
My ancestors wildest dreams coming true
It's said the hurricane alley
Is the pit of the valley
And follows the same path
As the transatlantic passage
And all that karma is the abominable trauma
Of bodies that sunk down to the bottom
On the way to the Bahamas
Rather choose death than chains
The philosophies of the late great killmonger
With that disdain I wrote my essays
Like how you gone tell me why my city suffering
When one
You only lived in the Chi long enough to write your dissertation
And two, you tried to narrow this new narrative negative
Skewed the narration into only a few ambiguous faces
Cherry picked from two of the safest
Inner city locations
And three, you never gangbanged
Slanged caine, had a son slain
Struggled to maintain outside the mainframe
And my grade a D
Not even a plus
My grandmother rode on the back of bus
I at least deserve a B
F it, I'll take an incomplete
Now hear you are saying I've made claims I've yet to prove
The irony is that I'm only a few generations removed
So who is you
Whatchu mean enough research
I am the living proof
My ancestors wildest dreams coming true
If history is the best teacher, I'm at least tutor
Whatchu mean enough research
I am the living proof
My ancestors wildest dreams coming true
