Brown Guys |
| I am a brown guy |
| But don’t call me nigga, please |
| Nigga please, you see that white boy, that’s a nigga b |
| Nigga ain’t a color, it’s a mindstate, you diggin' me? |
| Maybe not, I get it tho |
| But all them white boys blowin' weed they some niggas too |
| The difference is they got white privileges |
| Cops will kill me but I doubt that they kill 'em too |
| This ain’t a stab or a jab |
| But I’m feeling kinda mad they ain’t treated like a villain too |
| His weed is good as mine, his gun bigger than mine |
| And he motherfucking chilling too |
| Now if my color make you hate me then I hope you go blind |
| And can’t see what your children do |
| And that sound kinda harsh |
| But you would feel like I feel if you had black children too |
| Racism make you sayin' and I shoulda have your man |
| Sittin' there with the sick face |
| A dickface, you a dickhead |
| And what you gonna to with all the people from a mixed race |
| America is a sick place (you know) |
| But we paint it to be good |
| This is big city talk that we spreadin' worldwide |
| Coming from a humble nigga coming out a poor hood, ghost |
| Styles P, Talib Kweli, The Seven |
| Life of a brown guy |
| Travel 'round the would with the name of a Muslim man |
| Now there are some up- and some downsides |
| The downside is niggas get their spinal cord shattered in police vans |
| I ain’t a Muslim but my friends is |
| Grew up Christian now I’m sorta spiritual I know it’s cliché |
| I see colors in the music |
| We switch it up, you see the gods mix it up like a DJ |
| You say you’re hating based on race, huh |
| And that you’re colorblind and you like Hip-Hop |
| Like that’s some kind of call like you can’t get punched in the face, huh |
| That’s why the Hindus and the Sikhs being abused by Islamophobes |
| Extremism is ugly no matter what or where |
| People who don’t believe in God kill all the time |
| The Bible more violent than the Quran, you see what’s in there? |
| Ain’t no belief system got a monopoly on all the crime |
| I judge a man by his actions and by his enemies |
| But they don’t show themselves without a good reason |
| This ain’t a TV show, nigga |
| They think they know the hood cause they seen 'The Wire', the good seasons |
| I don’t need your sympathy |
| I don’t need your empathy your opinion is not required here |
| That’s why you’re hidin' on the Internet |
| 'Cause all that 'Nigga'-shit you’re writin' will probably get you fired, yeah |
| Fucked up, too |
