Young Black Boy |
| Yea, one-two, one-two |
| Uh one-two, one-two |
| Yea |
| Uh one-two, one-two |
| One-two, one-two |
| One-two, one-two |
| One-two, one-two |
| Yea |
| Born in the ghetto, we sayin' hello to hell |
| Rebellin' black decadents know the rebellers well |
| Came from the dirt so I can shovel it well |
| Wear it on my heart like a medal or lapel |
| Food and liquor stores on the corner |
| Walkin' by the door bein' watched by the owner |
| Tryna buy milk, short by a quarter |
| Hope he let it slide cause he know we tryna get by |
| Good hood nigga with a conscience |
| Tryna make sense goin' through the nonsense |
| Sayin' sink or swim, tryna stay above the rim |
| And we watch Kyle Watsons flip the Flip Johnsons |
| Playground legends would post on the block |
| As for The Rock, still post on the block in they ad for The Rock |
| How ironic, don’t you think? |
| I just want a shot, not talkin' ‘bout a drink |
| Pardon my candor, can it be kids like me don’t see Stanford |
| Think we big dummies like the son of Fred Sanford |
| Life full of questions, we just searching for the answers |
| And all I’m hearing is |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Know where you’re going? |
| Know where you’re going? |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Know where you’re going? |
| Know where you’re going? |
| Do you know where you’re going? |
| Do you know where you’re going, know where you’re going? |
| Do you know where you’re going? |
| Do you know where you’re going, know where you’re going? |
| Mama say a prayer for us |
| And everyone who run with us |
| My brother wasn’t thuggin' so |
| Damn right, I was scared than a muh' |
| Let’s go back, rewind some |
| Street life shine, the moonlight’s the night sun |
| Niggas on trees, never seen one climb one |
| Go against my will then you might wanna write one |
| I was on the scene, had my first gun at thirteen |
| Scared to pull the trigger but these niggas they ain’t scared to kill me |
| Swimmin' up shit’s creek, like a frat when I paddle it |
| Through the city where they throwin' caps like a graduate |
| Me and my friends runnin' from fate |
| Death doin' his job, he never late |
| Yo no rush, take your time, thoughts runnin' in the mind of a |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Know where you’re going? |
| Know where you’re going? |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Know where you’re going? |
| Know where you’re going? |
| Black boy fly, your dreams so high |
| It be sometimes a daily fight |
| But don’t give up, you’ll rise above |
| The powers be but you’ll be free |
| Little black child |
| How I love to see your little black smile |
| Searchin' for love in a world that don’t care for you |
| Neglected by all the people who should be there for you |
| The children of crack, children of rap |
| Hoop dreams that play they couldn’t dribble with that |
| See it’s bad luck reflection doesn’t mirror you back |
| If you forget that we kids, just remember you black |
| See that means you great, that means you smart |
| That means they give you nothing, make it to art |
| See we tryna live it up as long as the Lord let us |
| Never live forever so we tryna live better |
| Dream chasers until the dreamers start to chase us |
| Same things that break our spirits somehow make us |
| To the future fathers please do me this one favour: |
| Raise your seeds better than they raised us, please |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Know where you’re going? |
| Know where you’re going? |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Young, black, young black boy do you |
| Know where you’re going? |
| Know where you’re going? |
| This I know, for your brown eyes tell me so |
| Original, remember you come from gold |
| Don’t forget your dreams are their biggest threat |
| So know where you’re going, know where you’re going |
| Do you know where you’re going, know where you’re going? |
| Do you know where you’re going, know where you’re going? |
| You wanna hear a joke? |
| You ready? |
| Black love |
| Get it? |
