black made that - griot b lyrics
wake up, hit the switch whole room light up
notice that filament all in the light bulb
wrinkled shirt, ironing board, use that. nice huh?
dry cleaned jeans. nice touch!
walk out, little sister’s tricycle, p-ss that
pops blew up the bathroom, need a gasmask
peanut b-tter, jelly, potato chips. lunch packed
before you leave kiss grandma get your backpack
glad she got a pacemaker
keep her heart good though
see the street sweeper cleaning up the hood bro?
gardener working hard p-ss the mailbox
lawnmower cutting yard, edged up. top notch!
lightbulb filament, ironing board, dry clean
potato chips, peanut b-tter, tricycle, yall see?
gas mask, street sweeper, pacemaker, that’s right!
lawn mower, mailbox, even that traffic light!
rollin down mlk late night
you see the color change slow down on sight
if you’re seeing yellow when you’re looking you ain’t right
i see red, green, and gold on that black traffic light
black made that! all that!
black made that! all that!
black made that! all that!
black made that! all that! all that!
thomas edison made the light bulb, cool
but lewis lattimer made that light improve!
if you ever feel you can’t shine in cl-ss
look up at the light, say black made that!
cars use a spark plug to start
you need an x-ray to see broken arms
how you think food travels across those states?
fridges in trucks keep all that safe
you use a sharpener when your pencil breaks
keep your valuables in a fire safe
with a super soaker you can be a water gun shooter
1gig processer chip in my computer
every time you x box or ps4
know jerry lawson made the first console
when you go see a 3d movie
say hannah and dunkley brought this to me
that’s spark plug, x ray. mobile fridge
pencil sharpener, processor 1 gig
fire safe, super soaker, 3d gl-sses
3d movie, first console, that’s it
empire’s on who’s watching it, mamma
ghost or tommy either way its drama
when liv’s lips quiver fitz is a goner
how i know all of this? its ‘cus shonda
black made that! all that!
black made that! all that!
black made that! all that!
black made that! all that! all that!
washington dc is nice
and the president’s house is white
every time you look at that
know those who build it were black. facts
its black made. this, this, this black made
when you look at the mirror, smile ‘cus its true
you’re astonishing, and black made you!
black made that. geometry!
black made that. astronomy!
black made that. philosophy!
black made that. hold up wait
griot b, philosophy? greeks made that!
no philosophy’s from egypt, we made that!
art, medicine, and even math
all started in africa, we take that
we invented many things but our patent was taken
or bought for a fraction of what it would be making
our culture can be seen in most things in this nation
let me teach you about appropriation
seen on us it’s ugly, and on others it is praised
like: “corn rolls are thuggish
but i love those boxer braids”
there the same thing
just a different skin and different name
it’s taken straight from us, and the thief gets the fame
rock and roll music to most is great
but chuck berry taught elvis how to shake!
use our dance moves and all our slang
just know we influenced in all these ways!
black made that! all that!
black made that! all that!
black made that! all that!
black made that! all that! all that!
where my patent at? where my patent at?
where my patent at! you know black made that!
“when is it appropriate to appropriate huh? when is my culture up for you to take? huh!? elvis rocked the boat in muddy waters shaking hips. stare at bo dereck, her hair how she wear it. look at it! in the 90’s it was naughty to have curves in your body. now it’s fake b-tts popping and collagen poufy lips.”
