Everybody

[Intro]

Okay I was gone for a minute but I'm back now

Sit the fuck back down

Seem like everybody nowadays Hollywood

Oh, it’s like that now?

I'ma show you mothafuckas how to act now

I'ma show 'em how to act

I'ma show 'em how to act

[Verse 1]

Okay now picture little Bobby just a youngin' runnin' round

With his mans, hammer in his hands, feelin' like the man

Run, mothafucka, run

Before the popo get the gun, put it to your brain like goddamn!

Everybody know you ain't about it

Everything you talk about I know I can live without it

Red light, stop. Green light, go!

Everything ain't what it seem like

Mothafucka I know!

Hold up, what you mean, where you been?

Bitch, I been in

This is merely the beginning again

What you been living in?

A box, under the bridge, like Anthony Kiedis?

Looking for something to complete us

And maybe lead us, fuck an elitist

Hell of a long way from equal is how they treat us

Body of a builder with the mind of a fetus

Turn on the television and see the vision they feed us

And I wish I could erase that, face facts

[Chorus]

Everybody people, everybody bleed, everybody need something

Everybody love, everybody know, how it go

Everybody people, everybody bleed, everybody need something

Everybody love, everybody know

[Verse 2]

I been knockin' doors down like a Jehovah witness

God as my witness, I'm with this

But on the real, I think I need another witness!

If it was 1717, black daddy, white momma wouldn't change a thing

Light skin mothafucka certified as a house nigga

Well I'll be God damned, go figure

In my blood is the slave and the master

It's like the devil playin' spades with the pastor

But he was born with the white privilege!

Man, what the fuck is that?

White people told me as a child, as a little boy, playin' with his toys

I should be ashamed to be black

And some black people look ashamed when I rap

Like my great granddaddy didn’t take a whip to the back

Not accepted by the black or the white

I don't give a fuck, praise God, I could see the light

Everybody talkin' 'bout race this, race that

I wish I could erase that, face facts

[Chorus]

Everybody people, everybody bleed, everybody need something

Everybody love, everybody know, how it go

Everybody people, everybody bleed, everybody need something

Everybody love, everybody know

[Outro]

Okay I was gone for a minute but I'm back now

Sit the fuck back down

Seem like everybody nowadays Hollywood

Oh, it's like that now?

I'ma show you mothafuckas how to act now

I'ma show 'em how to act

I'ma show 'em how to act
