(Shadrach, Shadrach) 

  Say what you like, just spell my name right (I've got a good name) 
  Say what you like, just spell my name right (yeah) 
  Say what you like, just spell my name right (I represent more than my rap) 
  Say what you like, just spell my name right 

  I've got a good name, my first name came from slave in Babylon, back in the day, rat in a cage 
  Raised in chains, he trained like Rocky, but I mean his brain not boxing 
  So he got sly like Stallone, got game like 50 cent posse, up first to work on his coffee grind 
  In no time promoted to the king's right hand, but no hype man, had to take the right stand 
  When the king made a statue of gold he told the whole nation that they had to bow down to it 
  That or get tossed in the furnace Shad and his boys said boss you can burn us 
  We can't serve this statue it's worthless 
  The king was mad but Shadrach wasn't nervous 
  It must have been some strange phenomenon 
  They walked straight through the fire 
  Chaka Khan 
  Saved by faith stronger than flames, 
  If I'm half as brave then I honour my name 
  I've got a good name 

  [chorus] 

  And my last name, come down some generations 
  Came down from the elevation 
  High in the hills of a great nation 
  With a bright future and a dark past 
  That won't overshadow the hope cause the night's passed 
  Down from my grandfather who held down the village 
  Feel it when I touch down there 
  Now it's spilling in the same veins 
  As a good dad, with a good name 
  You see Shad's pop, always played bad cop 
  He had no badge though, we didn't give him mad props 
  But now I respect it 
  Guess it's perspective 
  In hindsight seeing it's corrective 
  So when I get kids if they get arrested 
  They going to get licks like breath mints 
  Check it 
  He held a tough job down 
  Held my mothers hand 
  Handed down proud roots from my motherland 
  To my hometown people say my name sounds dope no doubt but that's not why I'm most proud 
  I've got a good name
