Chorus 4X:<br></br>
Man I got that Home Grown.<br></br>

The economy could crash tonight<br></br>
And yo’ whole life savin’s couldn’t save yo’ life!<br></br>

Lyrics...<br />
<br />
Chorus 4X:<br />
Man I got that Home Grown.<br />
I don’t care ‘bout the Dow Jones.<br />
The economy could crash tonight<br />
And yo’ whole life savin’s couldn’t save yo’ life!<br />
<br />
Verse 1:<br />
I’m a crop farmer. I got what you need.<br />
And I ain’t blowin’ smoke when I say I grow trees.<br />
It’s funny: this economy is based on greed,<br />
But more people don’t farm who got mouths to feed.<br />
Some folks save money; I save seeds.<br />
I don’t water my lawn or spray weeds.<br />
The money I do spend on waterin’ crops<br />
I get right back, cause I don’t shop for groceries.<br />
I got breakfast, lunch, and dinner in the yard,<br />
So that recession ain’t hittin’ me as hard.<br />
My stock grows exponentially.<br />
What, the Wall St. Journal never mentioned me?<br />
Huh…<br />
<br />
Chorus 4X<br />
<br />
Verse 2:<br />
See I’m a city boy, all the way urban<br />
But ain’t goin’ out like the pharoah’s servants:<br />
To eat, they sold their land and cattle for cheap,<br />
Then they gave their bodies up to the 40 hour week<br />
In the city, where pity runs low<br />
You can’t grow food in a loft, an apartment, or condo<br />
So now you work for the dollar and man<br />
When all you needed was sun, air, the water and land.<br />
They think they own the water and land, but they’re confused.<br />
God is billin’ them for what they charge me to use<br />
If they could sell air and sunlight, they would.<br />
We’d suffocate and everyday’d be night up in the hood<br />
But it’s all good…<br />
<br />
Chorus 4X<br />
<br />
Verse 3<br />
One seed and I get a tree or a whole vine<br />
Bearin’ tens, even hundreds of fruit at one time.<br />
So while the dollar bill steady losin’ its strength,<br />
I got enough food to feed ten families on my fence,<br />
Enough melons to make farmers out of felons,<br />
Turn gangstas into gardeners<br />
‘Cause now they smart enough to keep this system from starvin’ us.<br />
They ain’t drop outs: they know the math from which seasons which stars is up.<br />
We goin’ back to the old ways except<br />
We technologically and metaphysically adept:<br />
Yep, like in the ancient times, when we could speak<br />
With animals, ‘cause we was kin, and they wasn’t meat.<br />
Ya’ll wanna eat…<br />
<br />
Chorus 4X<br />
<br />
Vamp<br />
You see, by myself I could never grow enough<br />
That’s why me and my neighbors don’t grow the same stuff<br />
But we don’t trade, we don’t measure, we don’t charge<br />
We give freely the way we got it from God.
