(Mask Up!) When your gone on your way to the dome
(Mask Up!) Anytime you wanna leave your home
(Mask Up!) When you’re chillin’ up in Cafe Du Monde
(Mask Up!) When you just wanna have some fun
(Mask Up!) If you care about the people around you
(Mask Up!) For the city that’s always behind you
(Mask Up!) When you’re workin’, (Mask Up!) when you’re twerkin’
Together we can defeat this
All you gotta do is Mask Up!
I wanna live in the future but man bump it mask on
I know you wanna chill with ya friends and that ain’t wrong
But we gotta take this thang more serious
People dying everyday and they still ain’t hearin us when we say
Back up 6ft trust and believe
Take the necessary precautions and we can be
Back to the normal, no more paranoia
I’m just here to warn ya, I ain’t tryna annoy ya
But this is coming from a person with respiratory problems
I ain’t tryna die, I wanna give my momma mo flowers
Some of y’all really out here bein’ some cowards
Talkin bout a new conspiracy every hour
Yeah yeah they could be forging all the numbers
But that don’t change the fact of what’s really amongst us
6ft back turns into 6 ft deep
Pull that mask up homie, don’t breathe on me
(Mask Up!) When your gone on your way to the dome
(Mask Up!) Anytime you wanna leave your home
(Mask Up!) When you’re chillin’ up in Cafe Du Monde
(Mask Up!) When you just wanna have some fun
(Mask Up!) If you care about the people around you
(Mask Up!) For the city that’s always behind you
(Mask Up!) When you’re workin’, (Mask Up!) when you’re twerkin’
Together we can defeat this
All you gotta do is Mask Up!
See we been maskin’ for a long time
Pretty pretty on the second-line, people mask for
More than just their own bloodline, Now we’re masking
Up to put the COVID on that decline (what)
It’s a community thang, if you can hang, it’s just a
“People come together to make a good thing a better thang.”
In this case, it’s just a matter of arithmetic,
Some say they really don’t get it
But everybody can over stand what I put out, it sticks
Which on the quick (uh) can make a problem not easily fixed
‘Cause if it’s poisoned then guess. what?. Now. so are you.
I wear the mask just-to-keep these cooties to myself, dude.
I may not get you on the first try
But in a numbers game of live or die
I’d rather not play at all
I’m not that small
When all I gotta do is
Tie this rag around my face, tell
Everybody in the place to
(Mask Up!) When your gone on your way to the dome
(Mask Up!) Anytime you wanna leave your home
(Mask Up!) When you’re chillin’ up in Cafe Du Monde
(Mask Up!) When you just wanna have some fun
(Mask Up!) If you care about the people around you
(Mask Up!) For the city that’s always behind you
(Mask Up!) When you’re workin’, (Mask Up!) when you’re twerkin’
Together we can defeat this
All you gotta do is Mask Up!
