| Black boy, black boy, we ain't gonna lie to you |
| Black boy, black boy, we don't like the sight of you |
| Pull up on the side of you |
| Window rolled down, 'profile' |
| Then we wonder why we see this side of you |
| Probably comin' from the dope house |
| We could let you slide but your tail light is blew, out |
| We know you're hidin' that Heidi Klum |
| On you another drug charge, homie, it's back inside for you |
| And just in case a chase might ensue, we got that tried and true |
| Pistol drew right at you, we'd be delighted to unload it |
| In your back, then walk up and lay that taser on the side of you |
| Fucked up, but what the fuck am I to do? |
| I keep tellin' myself, keep doin' like you're doin' |
| No matter how many lives you ruin |
| It's for the red, white and blue |
| Time to go find a new one and split his head right in two |
| No one's ever indicted you |
| Why? 'Cause you're a... |
| [Eminem:] |
| Black boy, black boy, we don't get your culture and |
| We don't care what our government's done to fuck you over, man |
| Don't tell us your attitude's a result of that |
| Balderdash, where'd you get the chip on your shoulder at? |
| Why you kicking that soda can? |
| Pull your pants up, we 'bout to roll up and |
| Throw your ass in the van cuffed |
| You don't have to know our plans or what our intentions are |
| Our cards are close to our chest, you better show your hands |
| And put our minds more at ease |
| Or get shot in the thyroid, comply or die, boy |
| We're fightin' a crime war, here come the swine |
| Tryna clean up the streets from all these minorities |
| That's what we call 'em pigsties for |
| They're like eyesores to police |
| Talk to you like just a piece of trash |
| Feels like we're stuck in a time warp to me |
| As I kick these facts and get these mixed reactions |
| As this beat backspins, it's like we're drifting back in |
| To the sixties, having black skin is risky |
| 'Cause this keeps happening |
| Throughout history, African-Americans have been treated like shit |
| And I admit, there have been times where it's been embarrassin' to be a... |
| [Eminem:] |
| Seems like the average lifespan of a white man |
| Is more than twice than a black life span |
| I wonder sometimes if it has a price scanner |
| I feel like checking out on life, can't escape this circumstance |
| I'd rather hear 'em say "Die N-word" than Die Antwoord |
| Ninja, now it's better disguised banter |
| But that's life, strapped 'cause we're strapped financially |
| www.lirik31.com |
| And can't find answers |
| We're applying, but McDonald's |
| Seems to be the only franchise that'll hire |
| So how can we have higher standards? |
| As Dallas overshadows the battle for Black Lives Matter |
| We fight back with violence but acts like that are |
| Black eyes on the movement |
| Which makes black lives madder |
| At cops and cops madder |
| That's why it's at a stalemate |
| Can't arrive at a compromise so it's Black Ops |
| I wonder if we hire more black cops, the crap stops |
| The block is our backyards, officers, not the crack spot |
| Call the attack dogs off of us, man |
| You always act all pissed off at us at a traffic stop |
| And bad cops fuck it up for the good cops, and man, stop |
| Sendin' white cops in the black neighborhoods |
| Who ain't acclimated to 'em, like that's the way to do it |
| Who seen some fuckin' videos of rappers waving guns |
| And know nobody black so they act afraid of us |
| And that's racism, the fear that a black face gives 'em |
| A subconscious racist |
| Wait, why are there black neighborhoods? |
| 'Cause America segregated us, designated us to an area |
| Separated us, Section-Eight'd us |
| When we tear it up's the only time attention's paid to us |
| And education sucks, and every day's another |
| Freddie Gray for us, a levy breaks or fuzz |
| Why is it they treat us like dryer lint? |
| We just want a safe environment for our kids |
| But can't escape the sirens |
| Don't take a scientist to see our violent nature lies in |
| The poverty that we face so the crime rate's the highest in |
| The lowest classes, it's like a razor wire fence |
| And we're trapped in these racial biases |
| That plague our society which makes our anxiety levels raise |
| Every time we see a devil's face |
| Lions, tigers, and bears, oh my |
| It's more like billy clubs and gats |
| And we really love it when you think we're guilty 'cause we're black |
"But you kill each other, facts
You peel each other's caps, for silly stuff like hats" |
| Single mother strugglin' through substance abuse |
| While people with nothin' to lose shoot each other for shoes |
| Fuck your Republican views |
| Pull ourselves up by our bootstraps, where the fuck are the boots? |
| And streets act as a narrator, don't gotta read comics |
| Or be that into characters, just to see that, just to be black |
| You better be strapped with a derringer |
| Or be "capped in America" like Steve Rogers |
| 'Cause no one oversees these cops and |
| All we see is 'em beat charges |
| We done seen 'em beat Rodney King unconscious, and got off |
| So we don't need all you crooked police officers' peace offerings |
| Just keep marchin', 'til we reach congress |
| But they're gonna say you're tryin' to take an irrational stance |
| If you try to slander the flag but |
| Somebody has to be the sacrificial lamb |
| So they call it a Kaepernick tantrum |
| If you don't stand for the national anthem |
| We raise it, you better praise it |
| Or you'll be made to feel like a traitor, we'll |
| Treat you like Rodney Dangerfield |

| Home of the brave is still racist 'ville |
| So this whole nation feels like a plantation field |
| In a country that claims that its foundation was based on United States ideals |
| That had its Natives killed |
| Got you singin' this star-spangled spiel |
| To a piece of cloth that represents the "Land of the Free" that made people slaves to build |
