Yo, they found some wild stuff in old Rome
Aye look, here's the thing though— you ever hear a story and just gotta blink twice 'cause it sound like somebody's grandmama just made it up to scare the kids? Well, archaeologists over in Rome just pulled some ancient skeletons outta the ground, right? And listen to this: these folks had iron nails on their chests. No cap. Like, they buried 'em with nails stuck in 'em. The scientists say it might've been to "protect" 'em or to keep them spirits from wandering around, doing the most. Can you even imagine? We talkin' almost two thousand years ago, and people were already trying to keep the boogeyman in check. That's valid.
See, that's the kind of energy that makes you think, man. We got folks down here in the A who still got their own ways of protecting the crib, you know? Not necessarily with nails, but you know, certain plants on the porch, or a lil' something tucked away under the mattress. It's that same human instinct to look out for your people, even after they gone to the other side. They tryin' to tell me these Romans were just trying to keep the dead from becoming restless spirits? Sounds like they were trying to keep Auntie from rising up and telling everybody's business. Period.
That's how we move in the A — stay tapped in.
