Thank God for my country folk and family
Instead of a metaphor I’d rather take it by James Anderson

from Tech N9ne (Ft. Big KRIT, B.o.B, Kendrick Lamar & Machine Gun Kelly) – BET Hip Hop Awards 2011 Cypher #1 Lyrics on Rap Genius

Instead of aiming for the traditional cypher with deeply metaphoric punch lines to decipher, he would rather add some substance and awareness to his verse, such as highlighting the tragic murder of James Craig Anderson, a Meridian, Mississippi native who was brutally murdered when he was ran over in what appeared to be a racially charged incident.
