Lyrics:
Tell me what it means To be black, someone tell me what it means Who I gotta vote for, who am I to be What car I gotta drive, where I gotta buy my jeans, black man If you ain’t really hood, you can’t be a black man Is it cause I’m proper when I speak, black man Should I be a chain and gold teeth black man Or a Martin Luther King had a dream black man, a dream black man You really gotta practice what you preach, black man How you gonna talk about peace, black man When I got death threats on my screen I am not the enemy, black man So who draws the first straw Everybody hurt, who caused the first scar Cause as soon as you see niggas get to fighting You be the first mother fucker wanna yell out World Star Can’t nobody else touch a nigga But it’s cool for a brother just to bust a nigga Guns sold in every hood, he’ll slay a dozen niggas Gon’ kill yourself, while you’re at it, take a couple with you And that don’t justify the cop shit, I’m just on some black mob shit The best way to protest, hit ‘em where it hurts, their pockets It’s time to boycott shit We need less rappers and more doctrines We need less ballers and more prophets We need more unity, less gossip But who am I to speak, I never went to college I hate to be the bearer of bad news But all of this double standard thinking is taboo If black hate is a myth, the term new black wouldn’t even exist I pray for tomorrow, I pray for the sorrow I pray for the truth and I pray for Chicago I pray for Detroit and I pray for Oakland I pray for Port Au Prince and I pray for New Orleans Somebody let me know, how can I be a better African American Like I ain’t grow up being black in America Like I ain’t grow up around crack, aids and heroin Damn They don’t really know, black man They don’t really know, ugh, they don’t really They don’t really know, black man, black man, black man They don’t really know, ugh, they don’t really They don’t really know, black man, black man, black man They don’t really know, ugh, they don’t really They don’t really know, black man, black man, black man They don’t really know, ugh, they don’t really know, ugh Sim simmer sim simmer, ugh Pour some liquor, for my niggas, ugh Bust a swisher, roll a cigar Hitta another strip club, throw my income Well, I guess it’s all we know Hate is all we been taught, so that’s all we show Just a nigga from Decatur, white as all our doors Even though the days of dark, still we all got hope So what’s the motive We don’t control shit, cause we don’t own shit Even in our own hoods, we ain’t votin’ And not just for Obama, but locally voting, that’s power Rome wasn’t built in just an hour Can you hear me, do I need to speak louder Christopher Columbus ain’t the only one founder They don’t mention niggas that was on the Mayflower Wait a second, let it soak, mind blown Bobby Ray from a different timezone I dare to speak my mind, and I’m wrong Well shove it up your ass with a pinecone I’m tryna paint the bigger picture You looking for the enemy, then stare into the mirror I said I’m trying to paint a bigger picture You looking for the answer, then look into the mirror, black man They don’t really know, black man They don’t really know, ugh, they don’t really They don’t really know, black man, black man, black man They don’t really know, ugh, they don’t really They don’t really know, black man, black man, black man They don’t really know, ugh, they don’t really They don’t really know, black man, black man, black man They don’t really know, ugh, they don’t really know, ugh I’m not even against the whole movement Like I’m not even hating on it It’s just, if we put that energy into ourselves And into our community And not so much into complaining about how we’ve been done wrong And, and we have been done wrong, but it’s like We gotta stop just saying the same thing and do something different All this energy that we’re putting into protesting We should put it into our community Put it into start up businesses, put it into your kids Put it into your community Start our own businesses So we don’t have to support all these other businesses Feed the, fuck, feed the homeless all year Do this all year, don’t just stop Don’t just stop after this case is over Don’t just stop after this topic, keep it going
