Africa Dream Lyrics - Reflection Eternal - Dj Hi-tek

These cats is no match, plus they lack a certain knack for rapping 

They never catch the wagon like Re-run and "What's Happening" 

Since back when they had potty issues and snotty tissues we been rockin 

Think you poppin next year nobody will miss you 

My thoughts is too advanced for the artists on these labels 

They come sweeter than sabal and softer than mashed potatoes 

I tried to told you the rhymes run over emcees like Land Rovers 

Took 'em back in time like Sankofa, Sankofa 

We stand over the Atlantic, looking broad like a man's shoulders 

The fire is trapped in a belly, ready to pop like canned soda 

We outlasting, from middle passage 

Touched down in New York 

Cincinnatay! Big Ohio status what you thought 

Money it's classic these bastards try to treat us like cattle 

So life has been a constant battle, battle 

Rising above the crabs in the barrel 

Way too used to living in death's shadow 

We stay on point like the best arrow, arrow 

We hit the target accurate 

Star shit, back it up 

When we hit town, y'all niggas pack it up 

That's how we get down, straight smash it up 

Like a whip, hydroplaning 

Hydro on the brain and maintaining 

Game changing into subtle shit, we remain blatant 

Yo, got to tell you to your face 

You get replaced in this game, by Kweli 

Place the face with the name 

These cats drink champagne and toast to death and pain 

Like slaves on a ship talking about who got the flyest chain 

We the reflection of our ancestors 

We'd like to thank you for the building blocks you left us 

Cause your spirit possessed us 

Yo, you blessed us 

Thank you very much 

We the reflection of our ancestors 

We'd like to thank you for the building blocks you left us 

Cause your spirit possessed us 

Yo, you blessed us 

Thank you very much 

God bless you
