Cashmere

Flockey Ocscor -

VERSE 1:

Six, woke up at 6 A.M

Another day - another struggle for the morning jam

Where is my phone at‚ who text me

Shit

Then I turned the TV on, and I question myself whats going on

Another brother from Congo dead for real

The crazy thing is, the crazy thing is just the other night I had a dream

I was in Kinshasa with my momma , daddy family and a lot of niggas

My momma used to carry me at the back with a african liputa

While my daddy screams Hallelujah

In the church, with an excellent african accent

I used to dance like Michael Jackson back then

I used to get down like thisss

VERSE 2:

Walking to school, 6 miles

The sun never disappoints‚ he always smiles

Broken sandals, too much heat

Damn, I'm tired, should I take a seat?

But no, I gotta go to school right now, I'm acting like a fool right now, no rest right now

And otherwise my teacher will be really mad

My mistake, the weather begins to get sad

In school I had a crush back then

She was black and beautiful, brown sugar, amen

A scale from 1 to 10, I would pick the 10

I wrote it down with a broken pen, during a class exam

She goes by the name of Sarah - like Sarafina from South Africa

We had eye contact for a couple of times

It ain't a crime though

After the school my homie Tony asked me

What you waiting for, you standing like a palm tree

Because next to her I used to act tough

But deep inside my soul I felt weak and rough

It was the last day of our semester

September 29, goddamn, too much pressure

So I ran after her, then she turned around silence between me and her

So I made the first move

I said, "Would you like to take a small walk with me?"

Slowly we were into that groove

She said, "I remember you as boogie woogie"

I got it from my pops, he used to dance in the church , thanks for the props

And if you don’t mind I show you how I do locks

VERSE 3:

Finally we got a little bit closer

Some romance deep in the jungle of Congo

Fuck…. Sarah we ain’t safe though

You see the rebels - and I'm Django

But still - we have now

We have to run now, really run now

Otherwise they kill... us

Oh shit, we have run now

We ran as fast as we could , I never really liked the danger

They like to cut the hands , oh damn… mother... nature

We ran as fast as we could , I never really liked the danger

They like to cut the hands , oh damn… mother... nature

Love ain’t sweet if you want something bitter

It makes you complete, not thirsty as a winner

And dreams aren’t fake, if the universe reacts

The gravity of love, yeah it attracts

Money ain’t big if your heart is kinda poor

Fame ain’t real if you really want some more

Gorillas ain’t safe, if you want to kill the culture

Black ain’t free, if you see it as a danger

What is light, when they just want the darkness

What is future, when you only see the past

What is love when you don’t love yourself

What is heaven, when you don’t trust in God

What is peace when black kid gotta die

What is police when they kill without any crime

What is success when you forget about your roots

What is Congo when they kill all the gorillas
