[Ab] We're gonna be nice and [Abm] you're gonna shut [Ab] up
And hold your hands up
[Dbm] Down [E] this road
We may [Dbm] never understand each other
It's no use, we ain't ever gonna grasp for each [E] other
Black [D] boy, black [Bm] boy, we ain't gonna lie to you
Black boy, black boy, we don't like the sight of you
[D] Pull up on the side of [Bm] you, window roll down, profile
And we wonder why we see this side [E] of you
[D] [Bm] Probably coming from the dovetail
We can let you slide but you'll tell right as [Em] blue
We know you're hiding [C] that Heidi [B] Klum on you
Another drug charge, homie, it's back [Bb] inside for you
[D] [Bm] Just in case I chase lighters so we got that trident
Two pistols will ride it through, we'd [N] be delighted to unload it
[D] In your back and [Bm] walk up and lay that taser on the side of you
Fuck y'all, what, what [A] the fuck am I to do?
I [Bm] keep telling myself, keep doing like you're doing
No matter how many lives you [Em] ruin, it's for the red white and blue
Time to go find a new one [B] and split his head right in two
No one's ever indicted you, why?
Cause you're [Bm] a black boy, black boy, you're a rock star
I'm a talker, truth maker, and I tell me how to live
Black boy, black boy, in your cop car
I don't listen to him cause my head is like a sim
Black boy, black boy, you're untouchable
I'm as clever as you and them, I don't even care
Nobody can tell me shit cause I'm a big rock star
Black [D] boy, black boy, [Bm] we don't get your culture and
We don't care what our government's done to fuck you [A] over, man
Don't tell [D] us your [Bm] attitude's our result of that
Bold as ass, will you get the chip on your shoulder, [Bb] add?
Why you kicking [Bm] that soda can?
Pull your pants up, we about to roll a ban
Throw your ass in the van, [E] cop
You don't have to know our [C] plans or what our intentions [Ebm] are
Our cards are close to our [Em] chest, you better show your [D] hands
[Bm] And put our minds more at ease
Or get shot in the thyroid, come fly [Em] a [D] dybloid
We're fighting a crime [Bm] war, here come the swine
Trying to clean up the streets from all these [Eb] minorities
[D] [Bm] That's what we call them pigsties for, they're like ice for us to [Em] police
Talk too light, [C] you're just a piece of [B] trash
Feels like we're stuck in a time warp to [Gm] me
As I kick these facts and get these mixed reactions
As this beat backspins, [Em] it's like we're drifting back in
To the 60s, having black [G] skin is risky cause this keeps happening
Throughout [N] history, African Americans have been treated like shit
And I admit there have been times where it's been embarrassing
To be [D] a white boy, [Bm] bright boy, you're a rock star
I'm a talker, truth and kind of tummy, I could live
White boy, bright boy, in your cop car
But I don't listen to her cause my head is like a seal
White boy, bright boy, you're untouchable
When girls come up to her and ask, I don't even care
Nobody can tell me shit cause I'm a figure up skunk
[Gm] Seems like [A] the average [Gm] lifespan of a white man is more than [A] twice than a [Gm] black lifespan
I wonder [A] sometimes if it has a [Gm] price scanner
I feel like checking out a [A] life scanner
[Gm] Escape the circumstance, I'd rather [A] hear them say [Gm] die inward than die inward
[A] [Gm] Ninja, [Ab] now it's better to disguise banter
But that's [Gm] life strapped cause we're strapped financially [D] and can't [Gm] find answers
We're applying but [Cm] McDonald's seems [Gm] to be the only franchise that'll hire
So how can we have higher standards?
As [A] Dallas [Gm] overshadows the battle for Black Lives Matter
[A] We fight [Gm] back with violence that acts like batter
[A] Black [Gm] guys on the movement which makes black [A] lives matter
[Gm] Bad cops and cops matter, that's why it's at a stalemate
And can't arrive at a compromise so it's black cops
I wonder if we hire more black cops
The crap stops, the flock is our backyard's office
It's not the crack spot called the attack dog's office
Man you always act all pissed off but instead of traffic stop
Bad cops, fuck it up for the good cops
Man stop sending [Cm] white cops into [Gm] black neighborhoods
Who [Cm] ain't acclimated to them like [Gm] that's the way to do it
Who's seen some fucking [Ab] videos of rappers waving guns
And know nobody black so they [Eb] act afraid [G] of us
And that's [A] racism, the [Gm] fear that a black face gives them
[A] A subconscious [Gm] racist, wait why are there black [A] neighborhoods?
[Gm] Cause America segregated us, [A] designated us
To an area, separated us, [Gm] sexinated us
When we tear it up, the only time attention's paid to us
And education sucks and everyday's a nut
The Freddie Grafer us, a leppy breaks a fuzz
Why is it, they treat us like dry land
We just want a safe environment for our kids
But can't [A] escape the [Gm] sirens, don't take a scientist
To see our violent [A] nature lies [Gm] in the poverty that we face
So the crime rates the highest and the lowest classes
[A] It's like a race of wire [Gm] fence and we're trapped in these racial [A] biases
That [Gm] 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
Bats, you kill each other's cats for silly stuff [Cm] like hats
Single [Gm] mothers struggling through substance abuse
[Cm] While people with [Gm] nothing to lose shoot each other for [Cm] shoes
[Gm] Fuck your republican views, pull ourselves [A] up by our [Gm] bootstraps
What a fuck of the boots
[A] And street's [Gm] act as a narrator, don't gotta read [Ab] comics
Or be [Gm] that into characters, just to see that
Just to be black, you better be [Ab] strapped for the danger
Or be Captain America, like Steve Rogers
[Gm] Cause no one [G] overseas needs cops and
All we see is them beat charges, we done seen [A] them beat
Rodney [Gm] King unconscious and got off so we don't need
All you crooked police officers' peace [A] offerings
[Gm] Just keep [A] marching, [Gm] till we reach [A] congress
[Gm] But they're gonna say you're trying 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 [Cm] Kaepernick [Gm] chant, if you don't stand for the national anthem
We raise it, you better praise it or you'll be made [A] to feel like a [Gm] traitor will
Treat you like Rodney Dangerfield, [A] home of [Gm] the bravest still
Racist pill, so this whole nation feels like a plantation field
In a country [A] that claims that [Gm] its foundation was based on United [Eb] States ideals
That had its natives killed, got you [Ab] singing this star [Gm]-spangled spiel
To a piece of cloth that represents a land that are free
That made people
And hold your hands up
[Dbm] Down [E] this road
We may [Dbm] never understand each other
