No Role Modelz by J Cole remix addressing the disappointment that is melodious misogyny. We aint here for it. Our EP Watermelon coming soon.

lyrics

Kat:
First things first i just gotta keep it real!

For real!

I think its time you niggas think of something new,

Got us out here Tryna Help u Be a better you

Can you see how your words are a seed thats instilled, So im here to ReBuild ....

Cuz i would Never want My daughters to know it feels How it Feels
& Coretta Scott King woulda
hated dream-ville talk to em aah

One time for All of my sistahs!
One time for the niggas who know,
That you cant try to separate women
By callin some bitches and hoes

Dont save him
he dont wanna be saved (repeat 4times)

Kats Verse

No role models and im here right now
Not even a daddy to speak of

Searching through my memory, my memory i couldnt find none, so i decide to search through my speakers

But then she gets called a bitch
Swear to god
my demeanor switched

cuz its coming from a nigga that i thought was good,

Said he a conscious rapper and he grew up in the hood!

And id be lying if i told you that i understood!

That shit is wack like cops policing black neighborhoods!
He got no shame about it!
See everyday we face abuse
And barely mentioned on the news we turn to music and they got nothing to say about it!

But i thought back

to what my momma said to me,
and then i had to phone up my bestie,
like why they calling WOMYN bitches so heavily?

Said HE THE ONE YO
Why He Make that Shit?
He let The GODS down.

One time for All of my sistahs!
One time for the niggas who know,
That you cant try to separate women
By calling some bitches and hoes

Dont save him
he dont wanna be saved (4times)

Amanis Verse
I want a real love
Assata Kamau love
Alice walker
Tracee-
love
Chapman, Take a stance or a knee love
Move a mountain take a village get free love
Mane I don't want no from nigga from reality shows
Out of touch with reality
Hoe
Toutin hollywood
Values
While the growth is on slow
Steady Preaching Money over hoes
Niggas you know how it
go
Yeah you heard that
Say you woke, that's word trap
Saying that you spit it for the people only heard that
Pushing Words
Women getting hurt
Fake deeps
Imma need my crown back
Ladies you know how it go

One time for All of my sistahs!
One time for the fellas who know,
That you cant try to separate women
By callin some bitches and hoe

.....

Fool me one time
Shame on you
Schooled you twiced
So now the bills on you
Fool me three times
Step to thee side
So this Queen
Ca Get her reign on too

Fool me one time
Shame on you
Schooled you twiced
So make that change 1 2
Fuck the peace rhymes
cuz it's been time
Fo these Queens
To get they reign on too

Kat:
My only regret was tuning out the lyrics i heard
My only regret was thinking i could sing the songs
now im left with is intersectionality woes
Know its a problem when your daughter cant sing the along

Amani:
My only regret was rolling out with models like you
Phony prophets
Saying you gon lead us home
Now all I'm left with is fake deeps and half growns
For my femmes who awake
This our song

He Hollow for the movement
He Hallow
with building
He Hollow for the movement
He Hollow
Start honoring the pussy
Let squad know
better let
squad know

Don't save us
We don't wanna be saved
X4

Don't save her
she don't need to be saved

Don't save him
He don't wanna be saved

Don't save us
We don't wanna be saved

KATANI is an anti-misogyny, pro black, women empowering rap duo comprised of Amani & Kat. Here to rep for femmes, queers, nonbinary POC who are sick of the fuckery. We know that misogynoir (misogyny directed specifically at black women where race and gender both play a role in bias) is yet another symptom of colonialism & we need to do something about it.
