Lyrics
My male role models drug dealers and thugs My father learned how to solve problems with guns And when I grew up I learned what racism was And what teaching it does And like my teachers would say "Little black boys have a place in the world" Like hanging from trees Or dead in the street like I seen on TV
All them boys they killed, they looked just like me Not like Brandon or Chandler, but Malik and Kareem I was born with a target, and it stuck to my skin And I learned in social studies I was one of them men Who were locked in the chains, but not locked in the pen But I'm bigger than that, I'm the beginning and end I'm the sun and the moon I'm the light and the dark
I am life in the tomb I'm the pharaoh and slave Gentrifying my spirit It's like a knife in the womb Refuse to act like a parrot Or to dance like a monkey See your stance is apparent That's why I'm here for the money
Don't care to cater to Mary Y'all fetishizing my spirit I see your culture's dependent On what you didn't inherent Won't let my world be attempted I'm staying distant Who gonna be the reason why I get high Who gonna be the reason why I turn over
Who gonna be the gunner that I don't trust Who gonna be the gunner that get they ass whooped Who gonna be the reason why I get high Who gonna be the reason why I turn over Who gonna be the gunner that I don't trust Who gonna be the gunner that get they ass whooped Who gonna be the reason why I get high Who gonna be the reason why I turn over
Who gonna be the gunner that I don't trust Who gonna be the gunner that get they ass whooped Who gonna be the reason why I get high Who gonna be the reason why I turn over Who gonna be the gunner that I don't trust Who gonna be the gunner that get they ass whooped Bum, bum, beat 'em, I would never wanna be 'em If I catch 'em slipping they gon' have to meet the eagle
Bum, bum, beat 'em, treat these niggas how I see 'em I don't need you either, send you right back where I seen ya Bum, bum, beat 'em, I would never wanna be 'em If I catch 'em slipping they gon' have to meet the eagle Bum, bum, beat 'em, treat these niggas how I see 'em I don't need you either, send you right back where I seen ya In the game, in the game, in the game, in the game (bloodsucka!) In the game, in the game, in the game, in the game (bloodsucka!)
