This Land (Remix) [From The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon] [feat. Black Thought]

Ayy-yo, this is my land

I'm right around a 20-mile marker

The sky seems darker where I stand

My only partner is the bullseye on my back

Courtesy of an archer, a reminder that life is a limited time offer

I'm young, black and a legend

And considered a weapon by some

Actually threatened by one

African essence

The real bodies are buried with the secrets in the silo

For people in denial or the links in the bio

The objects in the mirror are closer than they might seem

The shadow of doubt disappears at light speed

Hopes and dreams crisscrossed into a tight weave rope

From trees hanging since 1619

Strange the way the danger could inspire major good

I play a power chord

There goes the neighborhood

They after me as if they wanna capture me

But if they made it back to me, there'd be another casualty

That's why

Paranoid and pissed off

Now that I got the money

50 acres and a model A

Right in the middle of Trump country

I told you, "There goes a neighborhood"

Now Mister Williams ain't so funny

I see you looking out your window

Can't wait to call the police on me

And I know you think I'm up to somethin'

I'm just eating, now we're still hungry

This is mine now, legit

I ain't leaving here, you can't take it from me

I remember when they used to tell me

Run, run

Go back where you come from

Run, run

Go back where you come from

We don't want, we don't want your kind

We think you's a dog born

I'm America's son

This is where I come from

This land is mine

This land is mine

This land is mine

This land is mine

Up 'til the sun comes up

No, I can't stop grindin'

And I can't let 'em break me

No, I can't let 'em find me

You can meet my friend the governor

Only if you wanna try me

Or you can meet my other friend, the judge

In case you think I'm lying

And I know you think I'm up to somethin'

I'm just eating, now we're still hungry

This is mine now, legit

I ain't leaving here, you can't take it from me

I remember when they used to tell me

Run, run

Go back where you come from

Run, run

Go back where you come from

We don't want, we don't want your kind

We think you's a dog born

I'm America's son

This is where I come from

This land is mine (hey)

This land is mine

This land is mine (hey)

This land is mine

(Hey)

This land is mine

This land is mine (hey)

This land is mine (yeah)

This land is mine

This land is mine

This land is mine

This land is mine

This land is mine (hey)
