Ancestors - Dumbfoundead, Donye'a G, Year of the OX

Daddy was a G, granddaddy was a G too

They never bang, they always seemed to keep cool

At least they seemed to so deceitful

Cigarette bud after bud

Pound the city just run them up

Chug and a chug and he got a problem

Trying to make a motherfucking buck

Turns out everybody knew his name

Like worm with the perm out in the K

Walking to places first name basis

Bow to the waist like «right this way»

People were looking at pops like Moses

Dropping a basket of roses

Hustling 24 making that honeycomb

How could I never have known this?

Heroes ain’t voted by people we chosen

Genghis my bloodline, gangsters my old hits

Gangster ancestor’s ancestors

I got gangster ancestor’s ancestors

All of these gangsters, running my bloodline

Hood is my history, don’t try to run mine

Hope that you gunning when coming for me

They ain’t fucking with me

Fuck your hand gestures your stepsons

Y’all can run my ancestry no question

Check my pedigree, my family forever be

I can feel the energy, you can see my inner G

I can see your inner bitch, that shit running through your genes

My mama fuck a bitch up too

My sister, she might just cut you

My auntie, she hella peaceful

But my uncle, he like «whaddup fool, whaddup fool, whaddup fool»

My family told me not to trust you

We crossed the border with the drug mules

Ain’t no hood we can’t adjust to

Heroes ain’t voted by people we chosen

Genghis my bloodline, gangsters my old hits

Gangster ancestor’s ancestors

I got gangster ancestor’s ancestors

I remember eating oxtail watching Bronx Tale

My father bought the soap opera bento

Who’s a real gangster to you son, my father asked me is it Sonny or Lorenzo

He said true strength is love

But I was young and I didn’t understand what he meant though

See, that way of thinking it was stupid of me

And I looked at my dad like «what are you talking about?»

Generations can repeat crazy

Our bloodline had some 미친 새끼's

I got too many brothers that prefer the meat cleavers and Miyagi’s

‘Cause how sharp those nigiri blades be

Running through the city screaming you didn’t pay me

Pops wasn’t in a mob but the business he gave me

My forefathers couldn’t foreshadow what was forthcoming

So they figured out a way to degrade me

Our granddaddy’s granddaddy was a grandmaster

See they would have to bow to him

And because of his presence they come up with presents

That they would bring around to him

Now my were remade

I make sure that people heard of me

And I can’t help but say that my ancestors' face

Is printed on the front of currency

Heroes ain’t voted by people we chosen

Genghis my bloodline, gangsters my old hits

Gangster ancestors ancestors

I got gangster ancestors ancestors

All of these gangsters, running my bloodline

Hood is my history, don’t try to run mine

Hope that you gunning when coming for me

They ain’t fucking with me
