Superstar |
Five stars and hammers |
Whole city in the slammers |
Killing niggas on camera |
My lil homies dying for grandma |
keep flippin' |
Keep my name prolific |
Keep my nose in my business |
Just want money, clothes, and bitches |
Used to wanna for snitches |
Anything with a witness |
How you ask for forgiveness? |
When you never planned to repent this |
Both my parents went through hell |
Just so I could prevail (prevail) |
Couple stories can’t tell |
still nigga feel |
That’s just life homie, I swear (swear) |
Leave the block, I dare (I dare) |
Got my fellas expunged |
End of day, nigga, I won |
Made me a pie outta' a crumb |
Fightin' deez till I’m numb |
All holding me down |
Shed a few tears in all of my songs |
Why you wanna act like you hate us? |
(hate us) |
We on the front pages of your papers (the papers) |
I gue-, I gue-, I gue-, I guess that make us superstars (guess that makes us |
superstars) |
I gue-, I gue-, I gue-, I guess that make us superstars |
Why you wanna' act like you love us? |
When we wearin' nice and when we bust guns |
I gue-, I gue-, I gue-, I guess you think we superstars |
I gue-, I gue-, I gue-, I guess you think we superstars |
Alright I seen it then on CNN |
They did him in, it was calm, I seen his hands |
I ain’t seen no gun, shot that man up for no reason |
Showin' the cop with a hole in his top |
And I ain’t talking bout' capri sun |
So many murders be unsolved |
Including the ones the police done |
We in the news more than movie stars |
Guess that makes us superstars |
Flashin' lights from the trooper cars |
And we blowin' smoke like a hookah bar |
Paparazzi got cops on tape |
But their hands caught up in the cookie jar |
Judge let him off with a warning |
She should’ve thrown the whole book at y’all |
Black neighborhoods where the shootings are |
Guess that makes us shooting stars |
Take the law in our own hands |
Cuz' we don’t really know who to call |
To the officer who performed Philando coup de gras |
Do you tell the teachers before you shoot him |
Explain to your students why he ain’t gonna make it to school tomorrow? |
We turn them red and blue lights into a disco ball |
Then we dance on 'em |
We dance on 'em |
Turn them red and blue lights into a disco ball |
And then we dab on 'em |
Hit that dab on 'em |
You see how they pull up? |
(skrp?) |
They wanna' be just like us (skrp?) |
Turn them red and blue lights into a disco ball |
And we gon dance on 'em |
Gon' dance on 'em |
I got tunnel vision, life flashes |
Feelin' a little bit outcast’ed |
It’s southern cadillac’ing |
In the good old days when guns were blasting |
Hanging around some drunken bastards |
Fighting, scheming, wishing, dreaming |
One day the playing field is even |
Change is coming. |
Don’t believe me? |
Some are dying way too easy |
We get Swiss cheese, they get paid leave |
Front page news, for one day please |
Stop killing us, cuz' it’s building up |
I don’t give a damn |
I won’t give a fuck |
We can burn this bitch down |
Startin' with this town |
The revolution, as real as it sounds |
It’s killing season |
But what’s the reason |
We hustlin', a few cities and |
I don’t have a weapon, you can see these hands |
Another black man, trying to feed his fam |
And the police man get the same chance to live |
But what’s so sad: this happen way too often |
And it feels like every damn day we done lost one |
Talkin' to my son, tell him he gotta use caution |
But I’m seeing the light, comin' out tha darkness |
Why you wanna act like you hate us? |
(hate us) |
We on the front pages of your papers (the papers) |
I gue-, I gue-, I gue-, I guess that make us superstars (guess that makes us |
superstars) |
I gue-, I gue-, I gue-, I guess that make us superstars |
Why you wanna' act like you love us? |
When we wearin' nice and when we bust guns |
I gue-, I gue-, I gue-, I guess you think we superstars |
I gue-, I gue-, I gue-, I guess you think we superstars |
