Read Time:3 Minute, 20 Second

Lil white bitch gon say
You need to say something about that
You need to say somethin bout Black-
Bitch, suck my…
Yeah go time!

That aint your religion, you just followin your mammy
She followed your granny, she obeyed master
Did yall even ask up questions? Its holes in them stories
Is it, holes in your blessings? Yeah, Im bold with the message
I know I aint got the answer
But I aint gon cheerlead with yall just to be a dancer
Ima groove to my own drums, sunlight in my shadow, baby
Move til my soul comes, let them serpents rattle, baby

Crackin like broke porcelain, bitch
We ocean deep if you just pour us in a portion of shit
Them people try to twist my view on some contortionist shit
I had to reevaluate what was important and shit O-F
Finders, keepers, when you creep inside my mind its madness yeah
If I see peace, Im like a fiend ooh, uh, gotta have it
Lord, cover me Im goin in, walls closin in uh
How Im supposed to be protected when the laws want us in?
Yall want us dead, just cause the skin is the black type ah
Teach me everything and be amazed I dont act right

What the fuck?
Im tapped in the matrix, Im back and they hate it
Im black and make em pay me capital statements, you dig? Ching
Word on my back, Im tryna fashion a statement
I aint no bastard, we the master of the path that we blazin, you dig? What?
On God, now

I came a long way from my past, nigga, its obvious
V12 engine, Im fishtailin on some sloppy shit skrrt
Internet bringin old lyrics up, like I hide the shit
Whats your address? I could probably send you a copy, bitch
I was canceled before canceled was with Twitter fingers haha
Protestin outside my shows, I gave them the middle finger fuck em

I was a teener, tweetin Selena crazy shit
Didnt wanna offend her, apologize when I seen her
Back when I was tryna fuck Bieber, Justin
I say it with my chest out
You say it with your chest in, nigga say it with your chest, nigga

Black bodies hanging from trees, I cannot make sense of this uh
Hit some protest up, retweeted positive messages uh
Donated some funds then I went and copped me a necklace
Im probably a coon to your standards based on this evidence
Am I doin enough or not doin enough?
Im tryna run with the baton, but see, my shoes in the mud
I feel like anything I say, dawg, Im screwin shit up sorry
So I just tell these black babies, they should do what they want

Freedom, need em, my niggas, see em
Free em, dont fuck with the law like, damn, Gina
So calm the fuck down before we duck rounds
And fireballs that make your family have to duck the fuck down
We frontline, we got the molotov that we can chuck now woo
Cause anytime we movin up, its like a What the fuck now?

They playin games, we strappin up, we cock and aim yeah
We aim to shoot, we shoot to claim what we need
We done with pain and the grievin, niggas is done with the peace
Whether its personal or for the whole of niggas, indeed yah

I might not have dreadlocks, I might have these gold teeth
But Im a nigga like you, and yous a nigga like me yeah
So lets be niggas together, and lets be niggas with plans
But put this plastic on first, cause shit is hittin the fan, Scott

Shit like this make me wanna turn my baseball cap to the side
You know, with the T.I. lean yall fake mad
Catch up, niggas gettin yall identity, huh?
Gangsta Grillz go get a fuckin hobby
Shit
Aint nobody perfect
Well, at least yall aint, heh
