| Oh, I want it, yeah
|
| Whenever you need my hand
|
| I’ll hold you down, oh
|
| Oh, you want it, yeah
|
| Why in the fuck these niggas
|
| Tryin' to hold me down, oh
|
| Yeah, uh
|
| Why in the fuck these niggas
|
| Try and hold me down, ohh
|
| «You such a fuckin' lame!»
|
| It’s what they used to yell back in seventh grade
|
| My mama said she’d get me that new jacket when the cost go down
|
| Hit the office, stole some Tommy Hill from lost and found
|
| Not bad for a family of foster child
|
| Lookin' fly man, I’m flossin' now
|
| But them niggas saw through me
|
| «Are you serious? |
| What is this?»
|
| Took the jacket off third period, ellipsis
|
| Listening to «Sky Is the Limit» on my Walkman
|
| Thinking if Biggie can make it through it, man then I can
|
| Dope-boy swag, I always wanted that
|
| But my persona was always more of that Arthur Ashe
|
| But no love for the son of a commuter who was a radio head
|
| And okay at them computers at the post office
|
| It’s funny how you smoke niggas then you start coffins
|
| All my people need throat lozenge
|
| My fear is dead, ambition drove the hearse
|
| But niggas got me feelin' I ain’t black enough to go to church
|
| Culture shock at barber shops cause I ain’t hood enough
|
| We all look the same to the cops, ain’t that good enough?
|
| The black experience is black and serious
|
| Cause being black, my experience, is no one hearin' us
|
| White kids get to wear whatever hat they want
|
| When it comes to black kids one size fits all
|
| Oh, I want it, yeah
|
| Whenever you need my hand
|
| I’ll hold you down, oh
|
| Oh, you want it, yeah
|
| Why in the fuck these niggas
|
| Tryin' to hold me down, oh
|
| We the baddest nigga
|
| We the baddest nigga, yeah
|
| We the baddest nigga, we the baddest nigga, uh
|
| We the baddest nigga, we the baddest nigga, uh
|
| We the baddest nigga, uh, we the baddest nigga
|
| The reason that they say I’m nothin' what they seen or heard’s
|
| The same reason Will Smith always opposite Latino girls
|
| They only see you how they wanna see you
|
| 'Til you make them see you in some other way
|
| I’m trippin' off the other day
|
| 'Cause God knows what these white kids sayin' dude
|
| You’re not not racist 'cause The Wire’s in your Netflix queue
|
| Subtle racism, it’s hard to pin it
|
| 'Cause you’d only understand if you were me for just a minute
|
| This one kid said somethin' that was really bad
|
| He said I wasn’t really black because I had a dad
|
| I think that’s kinda sad
|
| Mostly 'cause a lot of black kids think they should agree with that
|
| If you’re a father, you should stick around if you could
|
| 'Cause even if you’re bad at it, you could Tiger Woods or MJ
|
| We warriors, we all need senseis
|
| Change everything that we’ve done so far
|
| I don’t mean makin' B.E.T. |
| T.E.R
|
| I mean just the way that we see each other
|
| I won’t stop until they say:
|
| «James Franco is the white Donald Glover»
|
| Yeah, these niggas wanted Cookie, but instead I gave 'em Loch Ness
|
| Sick Boi for life, my swag is in a hospice
|
| Aimin' for the throne, Jay and Ye said to watch that
|
| They ask me what I’m doin', and I said I’m stealin' rock back
|
| Nigga
|
| Oh, I want it, yeah
|
| Whenever you need my hand
|
| I’ll hold you down, oh
|
| Oh, you want it, yeah
|
| Why in the fuck these niggas
|
| Tryin' to hold me down, oh
|
| Oh, I want it, yeah
|
| Whenever you need my hand
|
| I’ll hold you down, oh
|
| Oh, you want it, yeah
|
| Why in the fuck these niggas
|
| Tryin' to hold me down, oh |
