{Chorus}
Chorus
That ish is unseasoned (unseasoned) x 2
Expressing that something is unseasoned, lacking flavor or excitement
Tell me really what's the reason
Questioning the reason for the lack of seasoning
I'ma call you D.T. cause the way you cook it look like treason (SHIT)
Playfully referring to someone as D.T. (possibly Donald Trump) and criticizing their cooking as resembling treason
That ish is unseasoned (unseasoned)
Reiteration of the idea that something is unseasoned
They be addin' taters with mayo and celery and raisins
Criticizing unconventional ingredients and losing credibility when disagreeing with opinions
But lose a couple reps when you don’t like what they are sayin
Highlighting the consequences of not liking what others say
That ish is unseasoned
Repeating the assertion that something lacks seasoning
Add some salt and pepper and that dish will be mo pleasin
Suggesting improvement by adding salt and pepper for better taste
Add a little cayenne that is somethin to believe in
Encouraging the addition of cayenne pepper for extra flavor
Take yo buisness and you mind it cause dem wrinkles creasin'
Advising to mind one's business and avoid unnecessary problems
Cause dem wrinkles creasin'
Reiterating the warning about avoiding undesirable situations
That don't look appealin'
Expressing that unappealing things don't look attractive
But when I go taste the food I know the Devil breathin'
Suspecting something negative (Devil breathing) when tasting the food
Put the spoon up to my mouth and got a little feelin'
Describing the feeling when trying the food
Melanin is honestly the very best seasonin'
Praising melanin (skin pigment) as the best seasoning
{Chorus}
Chorus
I said what I said
Asserting a statement and standing by it
3 reps, 2 black, 2 gone, 2 back
Listing numbers, possibly representing a sequence or pattern
Look I won't force you but sometimes they call me jedi
Declining to force something, mentioning being called Jedi, and expressing dislike for unseasoned spaghetti
It's just I don't really like it when you unseason sphaghetti
Encouraging the use of paprika for added flavor
Take a shot with some paprika and you'll call yourself a deadeye
Suggesting that using paprika can enhance one's abilities ("call yourself a deadeye")
Put a nigga in the house and we cheerin with confetti
Celebrating with confetti when achieving success
Gotta teach em wit a bop
Emphasizing the need to teach with a beat or rhythm
I know this is why they fought
Acknowledging historical struggles and conflicts
And I'm glad they took a shot
Expressing satisfaction that a chance was taken
Gotta work with what you got
Encouraging resilience and making the best of available resources
And we aren't gonna stop
Expressing determination to continue despite challenges
And this time (thyme) we grind till fine
Playing on the words "thyme" and "grind," emphasizing persistence until black and brown are acknowledged and respected
