What's it like to be a Black man in America
In short it's goddamned and it's scary bruh
Shadow your joy boy cause it's ahead of ya
Beware the shadow of pain it follows everywhere

The demons in my head
I think they want me dead
They want bloodshed
For giving daily bread

My girl try to keep me calm
She give me head
But I can't cum
Unless I come correct

Do I want diamond goals
And gold chains
Do I want concubines
One diamond ring

Do I want peace, love, and liberty
Do I just peace, fuck, and then I leave

Well I don't know
Neither do I know what matters
Battered and tattered
They climbing ladders for status and
Leave nothing to get rich off

And I get sadder and rather
Roll up my joint til it's fatter
Take food off platters
Hit bladders and leave you pissed off

Big boss
Hit you with that rick ross
Hustlin' hustlin'
Let us eat or get yo shit tossed
Lift off

And watch my niggas get to popping like it's lip gloss
Hard knocks
You get hugs we get a hip toss

And what's up with Jesus is he white or not
Is he believing in our plight or not
Is religion used to control the people
So we don't swallow the rich
'cause if so shit, I gotta watch

Since we believe the things on the screen now
I watch my girl pop it on the screen now
Is this real love I'ont know
She got my heart, beats got my soul

I use songs just to escape that
Is this real life you gotta tape that
They post fake asses on fake ads
Then hop on mine and catch a wave unpaid
Favor and take it in wades until I get paid
And you can't shine unless you get shade
Just a black ass nigga
Who took a wack ass situation
To get back figure he'd just forget faith

I know too much
But know so lil
Without the time to feel

The light can shine
Too bright To see
The right to know what's real
Ayyyyyy
