Lyrics:
The chance of a lifetime's passed up every day.
You said it'll be all right
But that was all in my mind
Lady Luck come returning to this tiny good night.
take that hunnid thou' reverse it
Work it back into our communities, rehabilitate the unity
Young Black women shinin', don't be confused by my lines
only a man can tell you what's on his mind
When he look you in the eyes
In other words don't judge a book by its cover
See we successful black
like the past is catching up to my ass
Every day, me and Mary Jane
Every day, live it like it's it for me
Black on black in time with my roots this
that)
I got the key to the city (uh, oh-oh)
(Cali on my back, the new voice of LA and I'm speakin' for you niggas)
This is how it is to be a big shot
folded
I got a fetish to learn
My teacher said my brain was loaded (loaded)
How can you teach your kid to be a leader
The key word is molding (woo)
I'm
on a storm-wracked sea. What price this invocation? Shall the singing
stars claim my very mind?
To countless worlds we travel, riding the endless black seas 'twixt
to be free? I found the path
Peeps up in my labo' keep trying to collabo
But then the devil creeps out of my shadow
Lookin' like a black crow painted by
To an acropolis, twelve armageddon acropolis
No resort of seclorum, Babylon's the forum
The Black mind and spirit is at hand I'm fightin for em
A holy war with
don't settle
My pen's the ride, on the pad, the road
Y'all must've known this is the
Way I unwind and unload
Over beats, overload, mind explodes
Stress in
buggin'
'Cause to us, Uncle Sam is Hitler without an oven
Burnin' our black skin
Buy my neighborhood, then push the crack in
Doin' us wrong from
promise you'll find the key
To that punchline, feelin' just fine
Let the abyss of my mind, my mind consume
Snap my fingers like Thanos and Bobby Boy
ya head with me
(Check it, check it)
Yo, case closed, erase my foes
Chased away by the black suits, shades and clothes
We above the law, Feds can't
by mistake
Say I fit descriptions they don’t even gotta see my face
Black man, black man
Ima super hero
Ever heard of Uncle Sam, that’s the super
profiling me
Black man fightin all my brothers again
But this is family, next week we clubbin again
That punk bitch willie lynch got us fightin over colors
outta your mind, you think you fuckin' with us
Suck on these nuts, bitch, hang it up, this game is over
Puffin' loosies, watchin' I Love Lucy with
Let me get it now
On Twitter, they murder my mentions
Cause they heard I was served by a circle of henchmen
Laying in a dirty ditch that bullshit is
-If we was owned by the white folks it will be all good
-But we independent, black owned and making scrilla
-We a threat to society
-They ban our
association)
Call me Miami haro haro
Cause this deals with the track
Blows my mind like oh chea
Yeah, that's wrong, but it's real
Fuck boys they know the deal
that consists of a whole
No beginning no ends no sides it's just a hole
Like in an event I'm a percent
Dealt out a hundred I'm 5, my degree is a black
in simple creations
Black and white imagination.
Wandering through time in search for a key
To open the doors that will set me free
I have to find my
[Ice Cube]
Here's another day at the stoplight
I'm looking in my mirror so I can see who can see me
South Central is putting Ice Cube to the test
Now picture that, but on a black and white photograph
'Cause brothers, you don't know the half
On the streets I was damn near outta my mind
But ever
the unspoken truth
Hoping you'd see I, I'm keeping one open, too
Maybe they dislike me, all they do is spite me
I'm sharper than the black keys, in between
Discuss these my mind is ramblin by the black keys Lyrics with the community:
