[Db] It's like a jungle outside.
Sometimes I wonder how I keep from going under

Watching our own [Db] brothers trying to get at us
Dreams get shattered when a scene full of crackers and they charge you with some shit you ain't do.

We don't know how to talk
[Cm] They taught us to hate each other before we learn how [Bb] to walk
Mama taught you how to fight fight, but she taught you how to [Db] write write and daddy locked down in the [G] cell
Can't get you night [Cm] night monsters under the bed every night [Fm] for like a fright night coke fumes in the air
Mama holding on [Bb] that fight tight and you catch a contact but never mind that in the world where black is wrong and white [C] right
It's like a combat.
We go to war for our freedom.
They say we equal
[Cm] I used to want to play like Randall and be an eagle.
I used [Bb] to play the quarterback
My dog would go receiver that was to the ball got black by a dope needle on [C] a pavement.
