They're Afraid of you black boy
For they could not contain your willingness, your audaciousness to letting the world know that you are somebody.
They want you to be the stereotypical "black man" that they claim is all there is to see
But what they fail to realize, is that as times Change, the world evolves
That, what's good ma, will be old in ten
That Jordans versus Nike will be forgotten
That, light against dark, was ever a thing
Because as the world spins, we have to move within.
Sync.
You are not a super soldier created in a lab.
You do not think like every other man born in the states
Saggy pants, gold chains, white beeters and black Tims
The last time I checked,
was no one's personality let alone 5million.
But I guess The way that you dress is apparently a crime because momma's burying her young, because he pulled his hood up which should make anyone leery.
Breaking news, another young black male gunned down by white cop for having his hood on in a no hoodie crime zone.
officer blames it on you black boy
Judge sentenced him only to seven months in penitentiary, but damn times have changed?
They don't see you like I do black boy, they don't love the uniqueness in your internal makeup like I do black boy
They don't appreciate
they want you to be banal and fall into the line of acceptance, but they hate the word Oppression when you use it black boy
They say, America is the land of the free.
And that our founding fathers should be proud of what they've accomplished.
But you did it, you carried America while on your hands and knees while they piggyback ride you like some wild animal
crackling their whip and tarnishing you're dignity,
sipping the tea like branding you was not hell worthy.
They believed in their god's and wrote that melanin was sinful.
That you did not count as a man, but the half of a boy.
